11 Nights Vatican to the Holy Land, Malta & Egypt onboard Azamara Journey, October 8, 2013
Vatican to the Holy Land. The summer crowds have thinned, and now's the time to explore world-class destinations including the Vatican and Holy Land. This voyage also includes full days to revel in the beauty of Sorrento, Taormina, and the Renaissance city of Valletta. Between destinations, relax with three days at sea, enjoying breakfast in bed, exotic spa services, yoga, or personal training with one of our fitness experts. Two days in Ashdod allow for excursions to the holy sites of Jerusalem and the Dead Sea, the lowest body of water on earth. You'll also have time to tour Tel Aviv and Jaffa, an ancient Biblical seaport with a landmark lighthouse, clock tower, and maze of alleyways leading to the harbor. Another overnight in Haifa lets you explore the holy sites of Nazareth, Galilee, and the UNESCO World Heritage Old City of Acre.
