A highly motivated guide, because we work with a guide network, not for a company. Your guide will contact you after your booking, you can customize the tour with him/her. Embark on this private half-day city tour of Jerusalem with a professional guide. Your guide will bring you to hidden corners, the best viewpoints for taking pictures, an African rooftop village and many more surprises. The Holy City of Jerusalem is unique. It is by far the most fascinating city in the world and the most important religious and historical sites are located in just a tiny walled area called the Old City. This tour has a maximum of 6 travelers.  If you don't choose a private tour, we highly recommend that you book a group tour to visit with a guide, it is a missed opportunity to visit Jerusalem without a guide, the density of sites, religion and history on 1 square kilometer is huge.

Inclusions: Private guide

Exclusions: Food and drinks, Hotel pickup and drop-off

This review is a bit delayed (sorry!) but this tour was great. Lots of fun and the pace was good. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and I really enjoyed all the stories they told. In the morning we had Moses. Then in the afternoon there was a local guide from Bethlehem called Boaz (the teacher)... he's an archeologist. Both of them were wonderful.

In all my years of travel,this is the worst company I ever dealed with, In September I had to cancel because my airline el al didn't run plane's, I notified them timely to get my 2800 refund for 2 trips,they would not refund me only promised me that they are working on refunds,they said we can't put it in your credit card but we will wire to your bank acct. But said they can't do because of wrong information I gave. Recieved from the bank manager,still keeps on giving me run around. They will send reply now saying let's talk about this,we have been working with you,but that's just for print only. I have lost my money,I just want anybody who books to know you will not be refunded for large payments, just be careful, 391 terrible ratings is not good for any company, I learned my lesson never to deal with a company with that many bad ratings. Be careful.
