Tailor-Made Jerusalem Highlights Tour

• I can pick you up at your hotel in another city in Israel, or we can meet in Jerusalem. We can do one day or spend multiple days together.
• One-day base program: Mount of Olives, with 2-3 places from the list: Chapel of Ascension, Pater Noster, Dominus Flevit, or Gethsemane Church of All Nations. Also visit the Olive Garden of Judas' betrayal kiss, the Crusader church of Holy Mary Tomb, the Old City of Jerusalem, the Last Supper Room, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Wailing Wall, and, if open that day, Temple Mount, as well as the Jewish and two Christian quarters.
• Modern Jerusalem is optional, with places such as the open city market Machane Yehuda and more.
• Optional places near Jerusalem include the Stalactite Cave or Herod the Great's palace in Herodion.
• As I wrote, I will be very glad to show you our Israel. We have much more to show than mentioned here.

Know before you go

• In our climate, drinking more water than you usually do at home is very important. Otherwise, it might be dangerous for your health.
• After a conversation with you, I will make a plan for this day. It can be Christian, Jewish, Muslim, or general, visiting the most important places of all three Abrahamic religions. It can be primarily archaeological, historical, or modern. This is a tailor-made private tour. It can be done by car, by cycling, or walking. It can be an accessible tour for wheelchairs. Underground Jerusalem can be added if preordered far enough in advance, as availability is needed. I have additional education and a permit for guiding Underground Jerusalem myself. Places can be changed according to the day's schedule, time limitations, and your request.
