I'm looking for a tour that includes Israel, Jordan (mostly for Petra) and Egypt. We are two couples in our 60s. We definitely want to go with an organized tour. I'm looking at a new one by Road Scholar but would love to hear thoughts and ideas.

We looked at ISRAM and for 18 days, Historic Journey, which includes everything we would want, the price, starting at $ 5,135.00 without air is a bit high for us. Maybe we are not realistic in our expectations, we do know that Israel is very expensive and we expect to add at least another $ 1K to the cost for food, tips, and other expenses.

We are going on a Viking trip next year. The pre and post excursions cover Israel and Jordon.
