In The Footsteps of Jesus Day Tour - Dguide Self Guiding App
This tour follows in the footsteps of Jesus, from his triumphant arrival at Mt. of Olives, through different stations of his visits to Jerusalem, to the culmination of the journey at one of the possible sites for the crucifixion and resurrections - the Garden Tomb. *Please note: The Garden Tomb is closed to visitors on Sunday and Monday. If your time is limited you can still take the tour on these days and return to the Garden Tomb at a later day (Tue.-Sat.). This is a unique self-guided tour. Your guide is in the palm of your hand. The DGuide platform allows travelers to tour at their own pace taking in as much or as little information as they like. Users can follow the suggested route or go off the path and return to the guided tour later.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Stop no. 1 - This impressive and iconic view of Jerusalem is the perfect backdrop to an introduction to Jerusalem. After a brief explanation of where we are, we will walk down the "Palm Sunday Road" and make our way to the next stop. There are many peddlers at the observation deck and usually even a camel on hand for rides and photo-ops. Please be aware and act responsibly.
Dominus Flevit Church
Station 2 - This small but impressive church is located along the "Palm Sunday Road". It is traditionally associated with the tears shed by Jesus as he prophesied the destruction of Jerusalem and so the Church is shaped like a tear drop. Take the time to take in the view from the adjacent deck in silent meditation. Don't forget to take a look inside the church with it's special window overlooking the old city and Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
Garden of Gethsemane
Station 3 - The "Palm Sunday Road" winds down the hill towards the Valley of Kidron. At the end of the road, a sharp turn leads from the noisy street to the quite and serene Olive tree garden with impressive trees that are hundreds or even thousands of years old. The Church of All Nations AKA The Church of the Agony, is built on the traditional site of the Garden of Gethsemane. Among these ancient trees Jesus walked and prayed on the night of his arrest as described in the Gospel. It is a perfect place for prayer and reflection.
