The Best Experience ✝️ - Shahar was our guide and he was excellent! You spend thousands of dollars to come here. Why in the world would you get a tour guide that is extremely intelligent,very humourous and very personable. I am a Christian and I have been in 5 continents and have taken so many tours. This is the absolutely best tour and best trip I have ever taken. To put the pieces together the way Shahar did was brilliant.
What matters to me when I travel is,am I interested in the country? Region? Subject ? And above all, is the guide personable and can he relate what he knows in a diplomatic fashion and not offend other religions and denominations. He went well beyond and exceeded my expectations. Probably one of the best experiences of my life. 100 % recommend this young man.
On the Christian side of the house, this is a must do event. There will probably be nothing compared to the experience and see where God walked,died and resurrected. ✝️

Tania is a super master guide! - I had one of the best guided tours I ever had in Jerusalem, well explained, full of details and history references. I enjoyed it like a kid. We were able to learn quite a lot in only four hours to get a complete wide knowledge of the 3 religions inside the old city. Tania was a real master. Super recommended!

The best way to discover Old Jerusalem - What a super informative and helpful way to discover Old Jerusalem! Our guide - Nimrod- was exceptional! As a former tourist guide in my early professional career, I can truly appreciate how knowledgeable, patient and considerate Nimrod was! The tour includes all the highlights of Old Jerusalem, leaving you wanting to continue the exploration on your own.
One recommendation for Viator and Abraham Tours: improve the description of the tour and include what the actual tour visits: all the major sites, the different quarters, time for lunch and Turkish coffee, etc.

Old City Free Tour is a good starting point - We did the free Old City walking tour. Our guide was excellent. At the end of the tour she gave us suggestions on where to eat and places to go. The tour is a good starting point.

Fascinating, rich and entertaining - I really enjoyed the free Old City tour of Jerusalem with Alex . He was entertaining, accessible and knowledgeable and sensitive to the group’s needs . I also went on the Mount of Olives tour with him in the afternoon - and found it really good . (10% discount on this tour after attending the free one !) Would heartily recommend !

Excellent free walking tour, highly recommend! - We opted for the free walking tour to get a feel for the old town. Orna was an excellent guide, professional knowledgeable and interesting. She held our interest throughout and was able to answer all manner of questions in detail. It was evident she has vast knowledge of all of the different religions, regions or Israel and particularly Jerusalem. The tour lasted over 2.5hrs but it flew by and there was a stop for water and toilets. We all thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour and have no hesitation in recommending this tour.

Too expensive for what it is - 50 U$ per person for a walking tour that all places were free of chage? The guide got some 40 minutes late, there was nothing included, not even a bottle of water… something anyone ca do on foot and alone.
