Masada National Park

Masada, a massive rock outcrop 434m-high (1,424ft). Ride the cable car to Masada’s flat summit where there are incredible views of the desert and the Dead Sea below. Your guide will give you a tour of the remaining structures from King Herod’s palace-fortress. Find out about the history of Masada, and how it served as an untouchable refuge for Herod and later for Jewish rebels. Learn how King Herod built this palace complex in 37BC-31BC, and see mosaics and archaeological remains of a Roman bathhouse, storerooms, guardhouse, palaces, and more. At the end of the Masada tour, you can spend time in the Masada Museum located at the foot of the mount. The museum holds more than 500 artifacts discovered at Masada, and there is an informative movie about Masada’s history.

Our tour guide was great. Dead sea was exciting. Masada was fantastic! Amazing how history unfolded for these poor Jews back in the day.

We had a great time at Masada and the Dead Sea. Benjamin was a great tour guy. The views were amazing. Loved everything about this tour. Benjamin was very knowledgeable, answered our question, and was very entertaining. Would definitely recommend.
Great tour, and passionate tour guide, but bring extra sunscreen and water

Masada and the Dead Sea were breathtaking. Tour guide was very passionate about the historical aspects of both, which makes a world of difference when it comes to teaching history on the top of a mountain 40c (105f) degree heat. Was more physically demanding than what I expected, but would have been fine if I brought more sunscreen and water. Would recommend.
Unresponsive vendor. Don’t do it.

My companion and I were delayed (with the rest of the passengers) and this tour left without us, despite several messages letting them know that there were issues with our ship passing through customs. Ashdod port is not a hospitable or interesting place on its own, and so being stuck here without an agenda or goal is pointless. Frustrated, saddened and angry that this tour vendor left us high and dry and never responded to our communications. Viator was equally apathetic to our issues and could not provide us with an accurate phone number for the vendor. So dissatisfied.
