Physical Requirements & Responsibility
This tour is not a looking-out-the-bus-window-experience. Our tours are a feet-on-the-ground adventure that requires travelers to be in generally good health and are responsible to have independent mobility and strength. There is a significant amount of walking over uneven archaeological terrain and nature pathways as well as up hills and ancient stairs. To participate in this tour successfully, you should be able to climb two flights of stairs without assistance and walk at a modest pace for a mile, as well as be able to stand in possibly hot weather.
Every effort will be made to accommodate the health needs of each participant. Please be advised that most foreign countries do not conform to the same standards as found in the USA Disabilities Act. iHolyLand Tours cannot provide individual assistance to travelers for walking, eating, or getting on and off modes of transportation. Participants who need this type of assistance are welcome to provide their own travel companion at their own expense. Or you can contact us for these arrangements if available. Please be advised that iHolyLand Tours cannot guarantee access to all pilgrimage activities, tours, or sites, especially if a participant’s mobility is severely restricted. iHolyLand Tours accepts no responsibility for a participant’s inability to fully participate in any or all portions of the tour, nor can iHolyLand Tours provide any refund for non-participation in any part of the Tour.
Luggage
One piece of checked luggage, maximum 50 pounds. Plus, one small personal bag (small enough to comfortably fit on your lap on the tour bus, e.g. a back-pack). Luggage is limited due to the tour bus luggage bay capacity.
