An Exclusive Small Group Tour for Alumni & Friends of Duke University

This tour is provided by Odysseys Unlimited,

six-time honoree Travel & Leisure’s World’s Best Tour Operators award.

Dear Duke Alumni and Friends,

We invite you to join us on a small group tour to Israel and discover the remarkable facets of a time-less land. As you travel from the coastal plain to the mountain region and Jordan Valley rift, you’ll experience a place steeped in history.

Begin in Tel Aviv, Israel’s arts and culture capital, where you’ll take a guided tour including Independence Hall and the “White City” district, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Travel north along the coast to Caesarea to see ancient Roman ruins before continuing on to the artists’ village of Ein Hod. In the hills of Galilee, stay at a hotel on the grounds of a kibbutz founded in 1916. Con- tinue to Tiberias on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Explore Nazareth, with visits to the Church of the Annunciation, the Mount of Beatitudes, and the ruins of Capernaum. Conclude the tour in Jerusalem with visits to the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial, the Old City, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the Israel Museum, and Ein Kerem. Your final day in Israel includes an excursion to Masada and the Dead Sea.

Space on this exclusive Duke departure is limited to 24 guests in total and will fill quickly. As the group grows in size, a Duke host will join the program to add a uniquely Duke perspective to the experience. Call today to reserve your place!

Forever Duke,

Beth Ray-Schroeder ’83 Director, Duke Alumni Travel Duke Alumni Association

both Judaism and Christianity, this ancient city has attracted visitors, settlers, and invaders for more than two millennia. B,D

Day 6: Tiberias/Nazareth This morning we visit the Mount of Beatitudes, where Jesus preached the Sermon on the Mount. Then the New Testament comes to life as we travel to Jesus’ boyhood home of Nazareth, now a center of Christian pilgrimage. Here we visit the Church of the Annunciation, the largest church in the Middle East and where the archangel Gabriel told the Virgin Mary that she would give birth to Jesus. We enjoy lunch at a family-run dairy farm then continue to Safed, cen- ter of Jewish mysticism, home to many artists, and where we stroll the medieval streets. We visit some of the galleries here before returning to our hotel, where we dine tonight. B,L,D

Day 7: Tiberias/Jerusalem On our way to Jerusalem today we stop at the archaeological site of Beit Shean, where ongoing excavations have re- vealed the ruins of numerous cities dating as far back as the 4th century bce. We travel on to Jeru- salem, the 3,000-year-old “City of Gold,” sacred to the world’s three major religions. We get our first look from a panoramic lookout on Mt. Scopus. After lunch at a local restaurant, we get acquainted with the New City, Jerusalem’s downtown area. Then we spend the afternoon at the Israel Museum, the nation’s leading cultural institution, whose treas- ures include the Dead Sea Scrolls, Shrine of the Book, a unique sculpture garden, and a scale model of Jerusalem from the Second Temple era. B,L

Day 8: Jerusalem Our day begins with a tour of Yad Vashem, Israel’s living memorial to the

Holocaust set on a 45-acre site on the Mount of Remembrance. Then we travel to the Judean Hills to the picturesque village of Ein Karem, where we enjoy an ethnic cooking class followed by lunch served with local Israeli wines. We return to Jeru- salem’s New City to absorb some of the flavor of this multi cultural enclave at the bustling outdoor market of Machane Yehuda (“Shuk”), encountering local residents as they shop. After a visit to Haas Promenade for spectacular panoramic views of the city, the remainder of the afternoon and evening is at leisure. Dinner tonight is on our own. B,L

Day 9: Jerusalem This morning we visit Jerusalem’s Old City for a tour of the excavated tunnels beneath the Western Wall. Then we visit the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, traditional site of Golgotha where Jesus is believed to have been crucified and buried. The remainder of the day is then free to explore Jerusalem independently or return to the hotel. B

Day 10: Jerusalem/Old City We return to the Old City today, starting at the original settlement of the City of David, dating to at least the Middle Bronze Age of 1800 to 1550 bce. An archaeologist gives us an in-depth account of Jerusalem’s role throughout history before we embark on a walking tour through the Old City: the Jewish Quarter; the ancient Cardo marketplace still in use today; and the Western Wall, sacred to Jews as the last remaining trace of the wall that enclosed and sup-ported the Second Temple on the Temple Mount. Tonight we dine at a local restaurant. B,L,D

Day 11: Jerusalem/Masada/Dead Sea Today we travel to the shores of the Dead Sea to explore the Qumran Caves, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered between 1947 and 1956. We continue on to the ruins at Masada, the celebrated mountain stronghold (and UNESCO site) where outnumbered Jews held out against a three-year Roman siege in the first century ce then committed suicide rather than surrender. We ascend the mountain fortress by cable car to tour the ruins, overlooking the Dead Sea. Then we have the opportunity to swim in the Dead Sea at a hotel beach with indoor and outdoor pools before lunch together at the hotel. We celebrate our Israel adventure tonight over a farewell dinner at our hotel. B,L,D

Day 12: Depart Tel Aviv for U.S. Very early this morning we transfer by motorcoach to Tel Aviv for our connecting flights to the United States. B
