Fine tour, a bit impersonal - Pickup in the morning from Tel Aviv is actually a transfer bus to a meeting point where a lot of buses are and you will get your bus for the journey.
During the bus journey to Jerusalem the guide gave some interesting facts and stories about the history in a calm matter, perfect for a bus speaker system.
However when it came to the outdoor talks she kept the voice low so it was difficult for the group of all 25-ish to hear her, espescially when she started talking before everyone got to where she started speaking. We did see most of the sights and the quarters, especially memorable was the western wall.
We were together with a group that had booked a whole day for both old and new city. We only took a half day to see the old city and that was perfect because that gave us time to do some exploring on our own. Traveling back to Tel Aviv from old city was easy by light train and train for 28 NIS.

Awe full - Guide dumped us because HE thought I couldn’t keep up. So He left us on our own. Would not recommend to anyone.
