Fantastic!

I've had a great time last Saturday, and it was a super wonderful tour! Michael and Mohammed were fantastic, and thanks to them I'll bring lovely memories home with me.

From Jerusalem to the Dead Sea

Too long! Too much info! Jerusalem Tour = 5 hours! vs Dead Sea = 2 hours... One would have liked to have been able to walk more in the streets, rather than having detailed comments on the history of religions that were not mentioned in the description of the visit. History yes but there was an encyclopedia!

Thank you Viator! Our tour was amazing.

We had a phenomenal day. Itamar was our tour guide. Great your guy with a lot of knowledge about the places we visited. If ever we are in Jerusalem again this is definitely the tour guide and service we will use.
