5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Dan Porges. He is very experienced and has a vast knowledge of Jerusalem and Israel, which he generously shared. The tour was very well organized, engaging, and Dan was great at pacing everyone on a long walking tour without feeling rushed. Top-notch!
Wonderful, passionate guide

5.00I went on this tour with my wife and a 4 year old on a pram, and I was particularly impressed with Daniel our guide who articulated the history and stories of the region very well and in a captivating way. He even helped us with the pram at times! The tour has a lot of walking, and I must admit it was challenging at times to push the pram and manage a baby. But overall it was worth it as we learnt so much and was inspired by the history.
Boring

2.00The tour was very slow and boring. Didn’t fully show us the whole way of cross stations. Guide took us to a restaurant with bad attitude, and so as the souvenir shop. The souvenir was over price compare to next door….

5.00Church of the Holy Sepulcher and the Garden of Gethsemane were my favorite parts of the trip. We also had a wonderful traditional lunch experience. Daniel was a great tour guide.
Good tour! Thank you Dorit and Bein Harim!

4.00We had a good time in Jerusalem. Our tour guide was Dorit and she explained everything well. However, I would like to note that this is a walking tour and you still have to pay entrance fees (about 10-12 NIS per site). I would recommend this tour if you want to visit the sites that Jesus walked on in Jerusalem.
Not good for elderly specially those who has heart problems and walking problems

5.00Jerusalem is a beautiful city, full of history and culture. We learned a lot and had a great time with our guide Eli Yacov. In spite of ideological, an religious differences in Jerusalem, Eli made us have some laughs in the most respectful way. We walked many hours and Eli made sure our group sticked together at all times. Overall a great experience with a great guide and great attention to details!!
Good tour to see Holy sites in Jerusalem

5.00Good tour. Thank you. We saw a lot of Holy sites. The tour was a good size group, maybe 20 people. Tour guide Daniel was super knowledgeable and helpful understanding the sites. The driver was great too. Glad we did the tour and would recommend it. The extra costs for entry fees is a little cheesy which makes Holy sites like a business. They say it's for maintenance but there are so many nicer and larger sites absolutely free. Especially just to visit a Mosque or Catholic Church that are likely not a spot where Christ was. The Holy sites just seemed to be all about tradition and a process and lacked a real spirit filled feeling/emotion. But this of course isn't any fault of the tour. Just something for visitors to be aware of.
due to escalating...

2.00due to escalating tensions, our guide did not want to risk going on the actual footsteps of jesus (via delarosa) bc she wouldn’t be allowed in nor want to risk our safety. that is understandable, but as paying guests who expected that as the main part of the tour, we should have been allowed the option of a refund. we had already walked the other areas she ended up taking the group on and we left 2 hours into the tour.
