Great. The guide really...
Great. The guide really knows his stuff, and we got a lot of information in the limited time that we have. My only small issue is that we did not spend enough time on certain parts of the itinerary, like the Via Dolorosa. But it's understandable given how there is just too much to cover in a short time. Overall the guide was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot about the places, and enough to go back there on my own as well.

Fantastic tour from the guide. I think his name was Ulinous or something v similar. Here’s my ref number to locate him. 1454171701 Prompt meet at The gates of Jaffa. Very good English. Small group of six. Two American couples, a Ukrainian young lady and myself. Went to all the places required to make this a memorable trip. Explained the layers of Jerusalem from a factual side with the religious side being brought in at stages. Lots of walking involved but there is no other way to get around this fantastic city. Two or three water/toilet breaks on the way round. Do it!

Very good experience. Informative and our guide was great.
We had a very good day. Nimrod was very friendly and informative. He added a lot of value and perspective. We covered many of the key sites in the old town. He did not rush us and provided additional personal tips on Jerusalem

Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jerusalem.
How much does Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $58 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 Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 69 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 Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour?
+
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 Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour?
+
Around 24 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour 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 Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour?
+
Included: Guided Tour. Not included: Food and Drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour?
+
Go to the stone bench just outside Jaffa Gate and look for the tour guide wearing a green shirt with "Guide" written in yellow on the backside. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. 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 Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
What do travelers say about Old City of Jerusalem Guided Walking Tour?
