Jerusalem - the Old City

Walking tour in Jerusalem

Tour Price : $400 Duration : 4-8 hours Languages: English, Hebrew

Jerusalem is a year with over 4000 years of history, and the city has changed quite a lot in these past years.

We begin in the City of David (entrance fee, not included in price of tour), where Jerusalem is first mentioned with King David conquering the city. We see remains from those days of old, and can even walk through the ancient water system - there are two options, a dry route and a wet route - the wet route is recommended for the summer days and the dry route for the winter.

From there we ascend into the Old City of today - to the Western/Wailing Wall to experience the holiest sight in Judaism today. In the Jewish Quarter we will be having lunch, on your own, and then we continue to the Armenian Quarter, which is the only quarter to still be mostly quartered off today.

We will walk through the markets of the Muslim quarter and make our way to the Via Dolorosa, the Way of the Cross, and to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the holiest sight in Christianity, where Jesus was crucified, where you will also have free time to explore the Church of today.

The Jaffa Gate is our last stop on the tour, and is a great place to disperse to the Mamilla Mall, or Jaffa Road with the many shops, restaurants, and transportation options, etc.
