This blog will discover six leading benefits of having a Christian guide.

1. More Trustworthy Tour Guides 

When choosing a guide for your trip, it’s essential to know that they are trustworthy and reliable. If they are not Christians themselves, they may not be able to share their faith openly with you or answer questions about Christianity when asked by others who might be curious about Christianity or God’s plan for salvation through Jesus Christ alone. A Christian guide can share their testimony with you and answer any questions about Christianity that might arise during your travels. If you choose someone with experience working with tourists from all over the world, then you can be sure that they will know how to handle any situation that might arise during your trip.

2. Exclusive, Authentic, And Private Local Experience 

With so many tourists flooding into Jerusalem, reaching about 4.9 million in 2019, it can be difficult for anyone to experience the best of the Holy City on any given day. However, when traveling with someone who knows the area well, it’s easier for them to show off its hidden treasures. After all, the Holy Land is a very sensitive place, and there are many things that you can’t see or experience unless you have a guide. The best Christian guides will know where all the best restaurants are located or which places have good souvenirs.  

3. Better Connect With Locals 

When visiting any foreign country, it’s always best to connect with locals. If you want to know about Israeli culture or Palestinian history, you’ll have to speak with someone who knows it best. You’ll get exclusive insight into how locals live in Bethlehem when you take a walking tour with a seasoned Christian guide native to areas like Jerusalem or Bethlehem. It will offer you a more in-depth understanding of what makes this place unique. Also, these guides are locals who know all the best places to go for lunch or dinner in their hometowns. They’ll show you where to find the best bargains too.

4. Learn About Jesus’ Life From a Local Perspective 

A good Christian tour guide can help you understand Israeli culture and Palestinian history from a local perspective. Also, understanding the history of Jesus’ life is vital for Christians worldwide — but it can be crucial for those on their first visit. Therefore, your Christian guides will make it their mission to help you understand what it was like to live in first-century Palestine during Jesus’ time on earth.  

They’ll share stories about what it would have been like living under Roman rule in those days – something that’s not always easy for tourists who aren’t familiar with Judah and other parts of Israel.

5. Organized Visits Based on Personal Interests 

The Holy Land is a vast area with many attractions that should not be missed. Hence, one of the most significant benefits of a Christian guide is that you can tailor your trip to suit your interests. A good guide will know exactly what you want to see, and they will ensure you have a great time. If you’re going to see some specific sites, then your guide can take you there. If you want an organized tour with other people on similar journeys, then your guide can arrange that for you too. 
 

6. Save Time, Money, And Stress-free Experience in Israel 

 Visiting Israel is difficult because of its long history and complicated politics. There are many things to see and do in this country, so it’s best to have an expert who knows their way around the country take you around and give you all the information you need about what’s worth seeing in Israel and what isn’t worth seeing there. Don’t spend your entire trip looking for things to do because it would be too stressful, especially if everything closes early during Shabbat (Saturday). 

 Conclusion 

All in all, the entire experience can indeed be overwhelming for first-time visitors to the Holy Land. Fortunately, a licensed Christian guide in Israel will take your traveling through the Holy Land to the next level. So as you travel to The Holy Land, don’t forget to find a Christian guide along with you. Why? Because talking to one of these seasoned guides will help you greatly in your travels and give you something even more valuable: meaning and context. From Nazareth to Mt. Tabor, from Qumran to Bethlehem–it’s all there for you to discover with the right Christain guide!
