• 5A pleasant and educating tour.

  A well organized trip, the guide (Frank) is knowledgeable and friendly. Did his best to fulfill the programme by communicating with the driver and other guides on what turned out to be a very busy day with respect to the crowds. The only thing I’d say is we could have a bit more time at the Holy Sepulchre, as the queues were really long, but I guess it wasn’t easy to predict. Overall, a really nice and educating tour.

• 4Good introduction to the old city.

  We enjoyed the trip and our guide was very engaging and knowledgeable. On the downside, we had been on the bus an hour and we’re still sitting in a car park in Tel Aviv waiting for other buses to meet up with us to all shift around customers. It seems there should be a more time efficient way to do this. Then we had the misfortune to be in Jerusalem on the day of the marathon. Much traffic and more waiting at another pick up spot for people running late. However our driver was knowledgeable of the city and did his best in a difficult time. We saw all the sites that were listed. However very little time was spent at each site. Much time was spent outside of each location describing what we were to see which after the delays of the morning was frustrating. Since this is a once in a lifetime trip, we were prepared and knew what each stop was. To have such limited time to see these amazing places after standing and listening to a 10 minute description was disheartening. Also, spending 30 minutes in the “approved” gift shop was not enjoyable. I wish we had been told how long we were to be there because I would have walked around the area and looked in the stalls more. As it was, we didn’t know when we were leaving there so we couldn’t wonder too far. I think it was the place we spent the most time other than lunch. Lunch was good. You don’t order from a menu but cold sandwiches were already prepared which was perfect I think. It was very quick and efficient which I appreciated. The location and view were nice. The drive home was much more efficient. Customers had been sorted by their drop off locations prior to leaving so it was a quick drive back to to Tel Aviv. Also- for those worried, there were frequent toilet stops. Our guide joked that part of his job for the day was to guide us from one loo to the next and he delivered. 😊 All in all, I do recommend this day trip. It’s a good introduction to the old city. I think it’s mostly accessible to everyone who can walk a moderate amount. There was nothing strenuous and the pace was easy. What I do recommend is after you take this trip, plan another day in Jerusalem on your own to more deeply explore the places that there wasn’t enough time for.

• 3Would I do this one again? No half good half waste of time.(no market time- only a store someone got percent from)

  44 people in group, 90% time could not hear guide sue to number of people in between. Stories 30% of the time didn’t relate to Israel at all . Learned more about China than Jerusalem. Most stops felt “commercial “ more than holy (and visit was on Sabbath) Often stories trailed off into nowhere. Wine drinkers in southern Europe, beer drinkers in north because…. The Easter Europeans were orthodox and western pagan gentiles with days of week named after them. I’m sure this tied somehow to the holy land we were visiting but not only were the facts incoherently put together I have no idea how these related to the places we visited Seemed adhoc

About Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv is Israel's Mediterranean city of white Bauhaus buildings, long beaches, street markets and a café-lined seafront beside ancient Jaffa.

Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 on sand dunes north of the old port of Jaffa and grew quickly into a city of modernist apartment blocks. Its White City, a large collection of Bauhaus and International Style buildings, is listed by UNESCO. Rothschild Boulevard is lined with these buildings and shaded by trees, and Independence Hall, where the state was declared in 1948, stands on it.

Top-ranked sights in Tel Aviv: Caesarea, Neve Tzedek (Neve Tsedek).
