Our tour with Michael included Qumran, Dead Sea and Bethlehem city with nearby sites, all of which were provided with concise and thorough explanation of the way people had been living there for the last couple thousand years, citing religious and secular sources, making it a very coherent and personal story. Also we have met with Michael’s family and shared a delicious meal together while having a conversation about the contemporary state of life in Palestine. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends visiting the area)
