A guided tour from Bethlehem towards Jericho with a visit to the Good Samaritan Inn and Maqam Nabi Musa. An episode with history, stories from the 'holy land' and the reality of life in Palestine today.
I study the tour guide program at the Bethlehem Bible College. As part of our studies we make excursions to the historical sites. Our tour guide is a Christian Palestinian called Kamal Mukarkar. In this podcast I will take you on a road trip and share with you what I learned. Unfortunately the audio we recorded of Kamal was not of good quality, except for the visit to Maqam Nabi Musa, so keep listening, he comes in around 23 minutes into the podcast.
