Quick note; I actually did the Hebron and Bethlehem tour (not Ramallah), but that's not listed as an option. Anyways - this tour was amazing, it was the most valuable experience that I had on my 11 day trip to Palestine/Israel. Mohammad was deeply knowledgeable on the history, politics, archeology, and people of every place we went. I saw two different sides of Hebron; the quiet, abandoned streets patrolled by the Israeli military, and the much livelier (though far less busy than it was pre-war) market and Old City. Seeing the occupation up close, and meeting Palestinians who live under it everyday, was very impactful. Mohammad then drove me through the South Hebron hills, pointing out different settlements and Palestinian villages. We drove through a few villages and chatted briefly with Mohammad's friends. Our day wrapped up in Bethlehem, where Mohammad showed me around and we had a meaningful conversation with the director of a community center there. If you want to understand the political situation in the West Bank, this tour is a must-do.
Excellent experience

An interesting and informative day in Ramallah and Hebron. An amazing experience was with Yamen, the tourist guide in Ramallah, who showed us the Yasser Arafat Museum, the city and the Palestinian situation. Later we went to Hebron. Our tour guide Qadri was very knowledgeable in Hebron and allowed us to see the Ibrahimi Mosque, the tomb of the patriarchs in the two sections, and he was patient. Wise in informing us about the geopolitical situation in Hebron, and we talked with Palestinian citizens and an Israeli soldier, and the tour was a good example of the complex situation in Israel, the settlers, and the Palestinians.
Amazing tour!

This tour was fascinating and eye-opening. Everything was organized perfectly. Our guide, Mohammed, was informative and sincere. He even found some students to speak with us in Ramallah. He was very interested in our tour being informative, safe, and interesting. He made me feel very comfortable. I was happy to learn something about life in the West Bank. I felt safe at all times.
