What an experience. Yaniv was an amazing guide. His depth of knowledge & his life experiences blend into an extremely informative day. The additional guide in Bethlehem was also wonderful, friendly and informative. Lunch was good quality but a bit pricey. I would thoroughly recommend.

We had a great day touring Bethlehem and Jerusalem! As we walked the city streets, our guide explained the history and cultures of the people in these great cities. He provided perspective that allowed me to connect historical events and physical places giving me an understanding of these ancient cities and the people have have lived here. It truly exceeded my expectations!

This tour gave us a chance to see some of the most significant sights in a day with a very knowledgeable tour guide. I think it would have been helpful during parts of the trip to have a microphone for the tour guide and earbuds for us. In some of the spots it can get crowded and sometimes it was difficult to hear if you couldn't get close enough to the guide.

It was a disaster trying to find our group. No one at the port with signs, horrible experience! Lots of stress! The guide and driver were excellent. The restaurant we were told to eat in was horrible, poor option.
