As we continue to head below sea level to the Dead Sea, we'll stop at our first point of the tour at Masada, where from here jump on a cable car to Herod's palace-fortress, now over 2,000 years old. Some of the structures here are truly incredible where we'll find various palaces and even an old bathhouse! Once we've explored this area we'll head onto the Dead Sea, where we'll head past the place where the Dead Sea Scrolls were first discovered, Qumran. Once we're at the Dead Sea we'll spend the rest of the day making the most of some well earned relaxation, utilizing the Dead Sea beaches to our advantages. The sea itself has water nearly 9 times as salty as a normal ocean, which makes for the waters to be extremely buoyant. Don't forget to make the most of the free face masks, found within the mud of the Dead Sea!
