1.00BEWARE! Do NOT book with this company! The last interaction you'd have with them is when they TAKE YOUR MONEY! Afterwards, silence... No tour, AND, no refund, either!!!

5.00Mike was excellent in keeping contact before the trip. He met us as the agreed location and time, and took us through Jerusalem in the best possible way. His English was excellent, and his local knowledge was paramount in a great experience.
Beautiful and moving!

5.00This great visit is one thing to do if you come to Israel. Indeed, the country is very charged culturally but also by the different religions that coexist in Jerusalem. I was amazed by this place, and also very moved to have been able to discover (with respect for each religion) the daily lives of the inhabitants of Jerusalem. This visit will remain in my memory!
A great experience!

5.00We had a great guide who took us on a relaxing walking tour of Jerusalem's Old City. We saw a lot, certainly all the sites advertised in the itinerary and then some. Yet we somehow avoided the crowds. Highly recommended!

3.00While our tour guide was very knowledgeable, I expected to see more than 2 sites in 3 hours. We spent about 45 minutes at the Western Wall, at least 30 minutes at a store, at least30 minutes for lunch and ended at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. I was disappointed.
Great tour. Honoch is awesome!

5.00I like exploring by myself but wanted some guidance. Honoch was an excellent guide. His knowledge of the Old City, his humor and his clear love of people made this a special tour for me. I look forward to returning. Miss you Honoch!

5.00Our guide Omer was absolutely terrific. He was personable and knowledgeable. He took us to all the major sights in the old city and even some that were not included on the official tour. At the end he took us to a great souvenir shop which had a great selection and great prices without the need to bargain.
