Suitable for most travelers who can walk short uneven distances and handle a full day in the sun
This private tour typically covers transport and the visit itinerary; some sites like Qumran and Dead Sea resort access may require separate entrance fees—confirm at booking.
Most people can float safely; avoid if you have open wounds, recent shaving, or severe skin conditions, and keep water out of eyes and mouth.
The tour is rated easy but not recommended for people with serious spinal or cardiovascular conditions; infants can be accommodated with seats.
Expect several short walks—10–60 minutes each—over uneven, rocky terrain at archaeological sites and short paved areas at the baptism site.
Jericho is one of the oldest continuously occupied settlements; Qumran gained international attention after the mid-20th-century discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in nearby caves.
