Join us for an unforgettable tour to the ancient city of Hebron, located in the southern West Bank which is to the south of Jerusalem. Hebron is the site of the burial place of the Biblical Patriarchs and Matriarchs and is one of the four holy cities in both Judaism and Islam. Hebron is the largest city in the West Bank, and also the most contested, with the Old City divided between Palestinian and Israeli communities. This tour is unique in that we will get a chance to see the sites and hear from voices on both sides.

After traveling from Jerusalem to Hebron on a bullet proof settler bus, we will start with a visit to the divided Tomb of the Patriarchs. On the Jewish side are the symbolic tombs of Abraham, Sarah, Jacob, Leah, and Rebecca, all said to be buried in the cave underneath. Following this we will embark on a guided tour to the Jewish 'settler' neighborhoods of Hebron; Avraham Avinu quarter and restored synagogue and Beit Hadassah, where we will visit a museum about the Jewish history of Hebron until 1929. Then we leave to visit Tel Rumeida with an army base, a Bronze Age archeological site, the Tombs of Ruth and Jesse and an ancient Jewish cemetery. 

At the top of the abandoned 'Shuhada' Street, we will cross over into Palestinian side of Hebron, where we will be met by a Palestinian guide before entering the busy city center, we will have a home cooked lunch in a Palestinian family house. Then we go up to see rooftop views from family homes in the Old City as well as the building of the Hebron Rehabilitation Committee. Also, we will visit the Ibrahimi Mosque, which is the "Muslim side" of the Tomb of the Patriarchs.
