The distance from Nazareth to Bethlehem is 70 miles roughly. Normally it would take about 4 days to travel from Nazareth to Bethlehem. Samaria lay between Galilee and Judea which had Bethlehem in it. There was much ill feeling between the Samaritans and the Jews. Any lone traveler crossing from Galilee into Samaria would be at risk of not receiving any lodgings or any other type of assistance on the journey. The family would have had to travel east, cross over into modern-day Jordan and then travel south on the eastern side of the Jordan River, before crossing back into Judea. This makes the journey much longer.
