Important things to know before you travel that Viator did not tell me about.
Viator made two important omissions in advising me as a client. 1. I was not informed that there was a VIP option to cross the Allenby Bridge (cost: $103, but a necessary expense to avoid a much longer process to cross the border) and 2. I was not informed that Israel requires and ETA-IL which must be applied for online. I was able to get the ETA-IL on the spot at the crossing, but it took about 20 minutes of time which I could have done in advance if I had known.

<p>This tour was simply amazing! The driver, and my tour guide, were knowledgeable and very, very nice. I went on this trip alone, and not once did I feel uncomfortable. Everyone I have come in contact with since returning from my trip, I have told that I want them to visit and have the same magnificent experience as I did. This is the company to do it with!!</p>
