- Just imagine: you’re in Egypt, and just a few hours away lies the holy city of three religions 🙏. This is an incredible opportunity to see another country, its main landmarks, and touch history that spans thousands of years. And most importantly — for citizens of Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine, no visa is required! ✅

- We understand you may have questions about safety. Let us reassure you: your comfort and security are our top priorities. The entire route is fully monitored by the police and army 👮♂️, so your trip will be completely safe.

- Your adventure begins late in the evening in Hurghada. A comfortable transfer will take you to the airport, from where you’ll take a short flight straight to the Israeli border. After quickly completing all formalities, you’ll be met by an experienced guide who will lead you through the most fascinating places.
- What Awaits You

- Eastern Wall
- Breathtaking views from the Mount of Olives 🏞️
- Places connected with the story of Judas Iscariot
- Pool and the ancient dungeon
- And that’s not all! In Jerusalem you will also see the Western Wall (Wailing Wall), the Jewish Quarter, and of course, the legendary Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
- The emotions from visiting this city will stay with you for a lifetime. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness great history — and it is absolutely worth your time and money. 🤩 Don’t miss your chance!
Additional Information:
- Your Journey Begins! 🗺️✈️

- At the checkpoint, simply answer the questions clearly and calmly. Please avoid jokes or arguments 🙏 — this will speed up the process. On the Israeli side, our colleagues will be waiting for you and will escort you to comfortable buses.
-
The Dead Sea and Jerusalem: Two Wonders in One Day! ✨
- In the morning (about 2 hours of travel), we will arrive at the Dead Sea, where you will have the chance to swim and experience its unique properties 🌊 (from April to October swimming is in the morning; during other months — on the way back).
- After this, we head to Jerusalem (about 1.5 hours). Your first stop will be the Mount of Olives, which offers breathtaking views 🤩 of the Old City and its ancient holy sites.
- Next stop — the Western Wall, the most sacred Jewish site. Here you can place a note with your heartfelt wish 📝, and they say it will come true!

The Heart of the Christian World ❤️⛪️

The Journey Back 😌

Important Details & Preparation 📝
- When do we go? 🗓️ Departure is on Wednesday evening, returning to your hotel by late Thursday night.
- Visa? No visa is required for this trip to Israel. Don’t worry — your Egyptian visa or Sinai stamp remains valid.
- How to book? 📞 Book at least 2–3 days in advance.
- What is required to book? Send us passport photos of all participants so we can get travel permits from the tourist police.
-
Payment & Cancellation 💰
- Prepayment: A non-refundable prepayment of $100 per person is required. This covers the cost of permits and reserving seats on the plane and bus.
- Balance payment: The remaining balance is paid when the transfer picks you up for the airport.
- If you are denied entry at the border:
- Unfortunately, if Israeli border control refuses you entry (for example, if you are on a "blacklist" or previously deported), the prepayment is non-refundable. We cannot influence their decision, as reasons for refusal are not disclosed. Roughly 15–20% of travelers are denied entry. Based on our experience, this happens more often with solo male travelers — but it is not a strict rule.
-
If You Are Refused Entry 💔
- We know being denied entry can be upsetting, so we have prepared an alternative option to save your holiday:
- You will be accommodated at a nearby resort to rest by the sea and have lunch.
- ✅ If you wish, we will take you on a tour to Mount Sinai and the Monastery of St. Catherine. This program is already included in the price.
- ✅ Important: In case of refusal, the paid amount is not refunded, as all expenses have already been incurred. You will return to Hurghada by plane with the main group in the evening.
-
Additional Information 📌
- Planning to visit Cairo? If you have a paid Egyptian visa and plan to visit Cairo after Israel, inform the border control and your guide. They will issue you a special free document. We recommend visiting Cairo first, then Israel.
- Comfortable travel: You will travel across Israel on a modern, air-conditioned bus with a restroom.
- Restrictions for citizens of certain countries: Unfortunately, citizens of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Armenia cannot join this tour without a pre-arranged Israeli visa. We do not provide assistance with this process, so please contact your country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Israeli consulate.

Questions & Answers:
We offer some of the lowest prices for tours while still guaranteeing high quality. We work directly with the largest tour operators in Egypt, which allows us to avoid intermediaries and offer you the best deals. When you book with us, you receive excellent service without any extra charges.
Comfort and Safety on the Road Your journey will be as comfortable and safe as possible, as we use only reliable transportation. Our fleet includes cars, minivans, and modern buses, equipped with everything you need — from air conditioning to toilets on long routes. All our vehicles undergo regular technical and sanitary inspections and have all necessary permits. For your peace of mind, drivers undergo mandatory checks with the tourist police before each long trip.
Book Without Prepayment We operate on a post-payment system: you pay for group tours directly on the bus at the beginning of the trip. You don’t need to find someone to hand the money to in advance — our staff will come to you. The only exceptions are private tours and those that require advance purchase of plane tickets or document processing. Payment can be made in cash in USD, EUR, or Egyptian pounds. For your convenience, we also offer payment before the tour via bank transfer USDT OR EUR as well as to a crypto wallet in USDT at the current exchange rate.
Egyptian laws strictly regulate the tourism sector. For any transport (whether a bus or a yacht) to receive a travel permit, organizers must obtain daily approval from the police and military. Without a tourism license, this is impossible. For this reason, for some tours we may require copies of your passports or vouchers. This mainly applies to sea trips in Hurghada, as well as private and some group tours that go outside the city. For other tours, a group permit is sufficient, and your passport details are not needed.
Your Insurance Is Valid Some hotel guides may claim that insurance does not cover tours purchased from third-party companies. This is not true. Your travel insurance, purchased for your trip to Egypt, is valid throughout the country, regardless of who organizes your leisure activities. In addition, any official tour operator carries full insurance responsibility for passengers during the trip, whether on a bus or a boat. Otherwise, they simply would not receive the necessary permit to conduct the tour.
We often remind tourists to make sure they don’t leave anything behind after the tours. Unfortunately, if you forget something, retrieving it can be difficult, as all transport immediately goes for cleaning, and Egyptian logistics have their own specifics. Of course, we always try to help locate lost items, but we cannot guarantee 100% success. If the item is found, delivery will cost you $5–10. Please be careful and don’t forget your belongings.
We receive many bookings, so most of our tours run daily or on a strict schedule. The exact pick-up time from your hotel will be provided immediately after booking. Often, you will join tours in small groups that include tourists who booked through other operators. The only difference is that our price is 40–60% lower. We work with the best organizers who conduct all major tours in Hurghada for tourists.
Please note that photographers on the tours are independent professionals who work for themselves or for a photo studio. They are not affiliated with our service or the tour organizers. All terms of photography and payment are arranged directly with the photographer. We advise you to be careful when making any prepayment and to obtain all contact details from the photographer in advance. If you do not plan to use the photographer’s services, please inform them at the very beginning to avoid any misunderstandings.
