Poor service
Did not read my WhatsApp messages and fail to arrange with late comers that is very disappointed.…..
Response from the operator: We apologise that this was the nature of communication dealing with Bein Harim tourism services, If there was a nighttime message it may not have been read. .It is not clear exactly what occured. There is an issue with latecomers as the meeting places on the shedule which is very tight. Best would be if you call our offices in order to sort this out amaicably, These days our logistics are spot on as it is not high busy season at all. Please accept our regrets.

Fantastic Tour
Yuval was the perfect guide. He was informative and let to us trying new foods I wouldn’t otherwise have known to try. I learned so much and really enjoyed the experience. Wonderful group of other solo travelers.
Response from the operator: Dear Shari, thank you for your kind review! We're glad Yuval shared both the history of Jerusalem and a taste of its local food with you. We'll pass your compliments on to him. Warm regards, Bein Harim Tours

Wish all tours were this great
Our tour guide was great. Had a wonderful command of the English language. He took us to a hidden gem for lunch.
Response from the operator: Great you had an excellent tour experience and a tasty lunch!
via Viator
I'll come back!
Fist time in Israel. The pick up was organised at Dan Hotel Tel Aviv. Van was comfortable and air conditioner. Eyal our guide for the day has such a high knowledge of the Bible Old & New Testament (I am a Christian), kind, respectful and patient. We had time to take pictures, to pray at certain important places like the Western Wall, Saint Sépulcre Church. We also visited a souvenir shop in Jerusalem and ate lunch in a restaurant. Yad Vashem was emotional. I highly recommend touring with Bein Harim Tourism Services, highly professional.
Response from the operator: Thanks for this reve review of your tourexpereince with Bein Harim toursim.we are most appreciative of your detailed description of the tour shedule and locations visited. We make every effort to provide toursim servicew at the highest level for our travellers.

Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jerusalem.
How much does Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jerusalem usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Jerusalem is not rushed.
Is Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 84 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Jerusalem, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall?
+
Around 29 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Jerusalem can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Jerusalem and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Jerusalem within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Jerusalem?
+
On Outty we rank every Jerusalem experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jerusalem Boutique Tour from Tel Aviv, Travel to Bethlehem Half Day Guided Tour from Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Dead Sea Day Tour From Jerusalem. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Jerusalem?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Jerusalem?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall?
+
Included: Professional guide; Entrance fees; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Hotel pickup. Not included: Food and drinks; Gratuities; and Hotel Drop off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Jerusalem. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Jerusalem Half Day Tour: Holy Sepulchre and Western Wall?
+
