Original guide, Zohar, was awful. Unsafe driver, late pickup, got lost, disorganized, walked extremely slow, rude to other people, unfriendly...ugh. Contacted tour operator and they were great in quickly providing a replacement guide. Gil was outstanding to take over tour. Professional, informative, friendly, responsible, helpful, enjoyable. Touring with Gil highly recommended!

Our day with YOAV was wonderful! He is terrific and we learned so much from Him. A great representative of Viator! He went above and beyond to provide us with as much information as we could absorb - and more! We will return to Jersulaem again.

Ahmed was an awesome tour guide, grew up locally in Jerusalem, knew all the best viewing spots, stores and restaurants. His information sharing was very impressive and his conversations educational. Showed us the best route in Jerusalem to get maximum experience from our tour. Dead Sea was completely different from what we pictured. An amazing day, what an adventure.
