I would like to go to the Dead sea, Ein Gedi and Massada.
I've never been there before and want to know if it's something you can do with 3 small kids.
How much time do you need by each of the places?
Does it cost money to go into the Dead Sea, if yes, how much is it.
For Ein Gedi and Massada I found out price info, etc online, but any good info you can give me will be greatly appreciated.
(I'm tring to make an itinarary with estimated cost, etc, want the least surprises possible on this trip)

I was at the Dead Sea, last June with a 9 month old. I had my father watch her, while I went into the sea with his wife. Couldn't do it without someone watching the baby. I stayed at the hotel on the water, which becomes mehadrin twice a year. So there was seperate swimming hours, but a mechitza by the sea, where you were able to go all the time. Then there is also another heimishe place, where it does cost money to get into the sea from there. Most of these places are really close to each other.
