Most people know the Nativity story or have at least heard of it. Journey to Bethlehem brings the story to life in an interactive way, breathing life into the Nativity story through authentic storytelling.
Step back centuries in time and follow the path Mary and Joseph took the night Christ was born. Join others as you follow your guide through the ancient gates of Bethlehem where you will be counted in the Census and encounter Roman soldiers. You’ll walk through the authentically recreated marketplace in Bethlehem teeming with bakery, blacksmith, carpenter, and rug weaving shops and be turned away from the last inn in town due to full capacity.
On your journey, you’ll encounter Roman soldiers, angels, shepherds with live sheep, and wise men watering their camel that small children are welcome to pet! At the end of your journey, you will find Mary and Joseph and marvel at the wonder of the newborn Savior.
