“I wouldn't wish this trip on my worst enemy. From the beginning, I knew it wasn't going to be great. We got picked up promptly at 8:30am, as promised. However, it took AN HOUR to get everyone in the correct vans and the tour to start. From there it felt very rushed. The guide was giving us information about things very obvious to anybody who knew anything religious I grew up going to church every week but would not say I know much about the bible. However, I pretty much knew most of what she went into detail about - and the things she did not explain when asked about…”
Rise with the sun at Masada, hike Ein Gedi’s oasis, then float and mud-bath in the Dead Sea on this 10-hour Jerusalem tour.
“The hike was great and wanted to spend more time in Masada. Because some of Ein Gedi is closed we spent 2.5 hours at the dead sea which was too much time. The trip would have been perfect if more time were given to Masada than swimming.”
