Take a 10-hour safari tour of the Judean Desert, and discover the lowest place on earth at the Dead Sea. Available with pick-ups from Jerusalem hotels, each tour starts with a transfer through a Biblical wilderness. Pass the Inn of the Good Samaritan, before descending to a point beneath sea level. Enjoy distant views of the Biblical city of Jericho, one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, and best known as the city that Joshua (Joshua 6) conquered after his troops circled the city walls causing them to fall. See the caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found upon arrival at Qumran. Learn more about the scrolls, now kept in the Shrine of the Book in Jerusalem, they were kept in good condition for 2,000 years thanks to the lack of humidity in the Dead Sea region. Transfer to a 4WD jeep to cross the rough desert terrain. Take a thrilling ride through the desert, negotiating the steep inclines, ravines, sand, and rock. Reach the Cliffs of Dragot and look down on the Dragot River. See the Murbaat Caves with their fascinating square entrances. End the adventure by washing away the dust of the desert and cooling off in the Dead Sea. Change into a bathing suit and float in the mineral rich water. Make use of nature's natural face mask - the Dead Sea black mud - and lather it into the skin to benefit from the mud's therapeutic properties.
