The Old City of Jerusalem is home to four quarters, but for many, we tend to restrict our visits to only a few main streets and market squares. This was my first time doing a full tour of all four quarters at once and I absolutely loved it, despite my having visited Jerusalem many - that'd be, like, very many... More

Taking this tour was probably our best Day in Israel. There are lots of thing you would miss if you just explore the old city by yourself. I would recommend to see the dome of the rock around 8am/9am (very short opening hours!) before the tour, then finish the tour with a walk around the old city wall from Jaffa... More

Our guide Moki Schwartz was very pleasant and knowledgeable. His smile was contagious and the tour was fun for everyone. The information he provided was interesting and also well balanced between important historical events, interesting facts and the peculiarities of the nowadays Old City life. Thanks. More

We met our tour guide at the meeting point outside the Jaffa Gate of the Old City of Jerusalem. Phil, the guide, made the tour swift and enjoyable right from the start. His knowledge of the history, complex relationships between three major world religions, and assorted tidbits of the city was astonishing! The three-hour tour is an excellent start for... More

We had such a memorable experience of Jerusalem with our guide Dvir Hollander. He was really knowledgable, with a very nice attitude and was amazing with our kids (7 and 8 year olds). They had so many quesitons and he had answers for sure. More

We had 2 kids (7 and 8 years old) who kept asking him all kinds questions. Dvir was very patient and helpful. He is also very balanced (so refreshing in a city like Jerusalem) and knowledgeable. The energy he brought to the tour made it fun - Kids enjoyed the hours of walk on this tour thanks to Dvir. More

Very good guide, and a great way of discovering the old city. He took us to places on the rooftops that I never would have found on my own. Also, tipping is expected, I tipped 50 sheckels, but there is no minimum. More

It's a great system, the tours are free, but you give an optional payment at the end. No pressure at all to give, but i think everyone on our tour did. Our guide Dvir was excellent, knowledgeable, entertaining, really looked after the group. Everything about the tour was every bit as professional as a tour that you pay for in... More

Our guide was Dvir - excellent guide, kept track of the group, very friendly, funny and knowledgeable. Tour guides need to study for two years to be registered so it is a very professional experience. The guides are motivated to do a good job because they work for tips but there was no pressure at the end to pay, so... More
