ABOUT THE TRIP
As a North Point Ministries Stakeholder, we invite you to join us for The Holy Land Experience, an invitation-only journey with teaching by Joel Thomas, from March 10 - 18, 2027. This tour has been carefully crafted as a boutique, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
We’ll travel throughout Israel for ten unforgettable days, starting along the Mediterranean coast in Caesarea, making our way up to the hills in the north and the Sea of Galilee. We'll drive through the Jordan Valley back down to the Dead Sea and Jerusalem. Each day will offer a unique adventure with teaching and insight from Joel Thomas, expert local guides, meaningful conversations, and the opportunity to build community with fellow stakeholders who share a heart for the NPM mission.
We would love for you to join us as we journey through the land where Jesus lived, loved, and taught. Our hope is that this experience deepens your relationship with Jesus, enriches the way you read and engage with Scripture, and emboldens you to inspire people to follow Jesus.
PRICING
Double Occupancy:
$7,600 per person
Single Occupancy:
$10,220 per person
Pricing is based on double occupancy. Solo travelers will have their own room. Lodging rates in Israel are per person rather than per room, which increases the cost from $7,600.00 per person to $10,220.00 per person.
Flights are a separate purchase from the land tour price.
Travel insurance is strongly recommended and is best purchased within 14 days of booking. This protects the land portion of your trip and covers travel interruptions. We recommend Travel Guard as a trusted option.

ITINERARY
WHAT TO EXPECT
The North Point Ministries Holy Land Experience will be an unforgettable journey through the story of Scripture. We will visit significant biblical sites in the Sea of Galilee, the coastal regions, Jerusalem, and the Judean Desert. We will explore places where Jesus taught, walked, healed, and performed miracles. The trip includes meaningful teaching, amazing meals, great conversations, and a few special surprises along the way.
Hotels:
DAY 1
ARRIVAL DAY
Our team will meet you at Ben Gurion International Airport. We will travel north along the coastal plains, and check into the Dan Caesarea Hotel for dinner and a restful evening.
DAYS 2 and 3
THE SEA OF GALILEE
Experience one of the most beautiful and spiritually rich regions of the Holy Land, a landscape that remains remarkably preserved and looks much as it did in the time of Jesus. We will enjoy a boat ride on The Sea of Galilee, and visit Caesarea Maritima, where Paul was imprisoned and began his journey to Rome. From this port, he set out to carry the Gospel to the world.

DAY 5
JUDEAN DESERT + DEAD SEA
We’ll spend three immersive days in the heart of biblical history. There’s simply no place on earth like Jerusalem. Jesus worshipped in the Temple as a child and taught and healed within its walls during His ministry. He spent His final days in Jerusalem, where he was crucified, buried, and rose again.
We’ll travel into the Judean Desert, a place of refuge, reflection, and seclusion for many throughout Scripture, including Jesus and King David. We’ll visit Qumran—the archaeological site where the Dead Sea Scrolls were uncovered—and take a dip in the Dead Sea, where you can float effortlessly due to its extremely high salt concentration. After our time there, we will travel to Jerusalem and enjoy an evening walk to the Western Wall.
Sites:
Kasr al Yahud
Dead Sea swim and float
Qumran
