Good Thursday is not a commonly recognized holiday or term. However, “Maundy Thursday” is an important Christian holiday that is observed on the Thursday before Easter Sunday. Maundy Thursday commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples, as described in the Bible. The term “Maundy” comes from the Latin word “mandatum,” which means “commandment,” referring to the new commandment that Jesus gave his disciples to love one another as he had loved them. The day is also known as “Holy Thursday” and is often marked by church services and the traditional washing of feet.

Highest recommendations to use Holy Land VIP Tours! Our family of five wanted to visit Jerusalem and surrounding Christian sites but wanted to be on our own, without a large travel group.
Angie W We traveled with Holy Land VIP tours and Daniel was our guide. We felt very safe, and our accommodations were excellent. We were able to visit all of the Christian Holy Land Sites.
David BDaniel was able to take us to all the places we wanted to go and enable us to get into many places because he knew someone! He is very knowledgeable and accurate in the places.
Ken ODaniel and his Holy Land VIP Tours team were superb in all regards. We had a customized and flexible 7-day tour of Israel, including the northern coast, Galilee, Golan, etc.
