Our one day Jordan River Baptism tour begins in Jerusalem, where one of our private tour guides will come and collect you (and your group) from your hotel. From there you will be whisked away for a full day of insight, revelation and blessing as you begin to walk in the footsteps of Yeshua (Jesus).
The tour begins with a departure from Jerusalem to the East. You will be driven towards the Jordanian Border and home to one of two sites traditionally attributed with the Baptism of Yeshua by John The Baptist. Qasr el Yahud (Bethany by the Jordan) is the more likely of the two possible locations, due to its proximity to the Mount of Temptation, and today is one of the most visited locations by Christians visiting Israel.
On route to Qasr el Yahud, you will visit a whole host of locations including: *Wadi Quelt, the Old Jericho Road, the Old Pilgrims road and of course the Jordan River. Here you will be given the opportunity to be baptised at the very site where Yeshua is said to have been immersed by John.
After your baptism our guides will follow the biblical narrative and head out towards the Mount of Temptation, where Yeshua was tempted after fasting for 40 and 40 nights. You will visit the view point at the bottom of the mountain before having the opportunity to take a closer look at Jericho, with visits to the Ancient walls which came tumbling down and a visit to the traditional site of Elisha Well.
Time permitting, we will then begin our journey back towards Jerusalem with stops at the Dead Sea (for a swim) and *Qumran to learn about the discovery of the now world famous Dead Sea Scrolls. What are you waiting for – Book your tour today for a once in a lifetime experience.
