Fantastic five star day trip to Jerusalem
From start to finish the day trip was absolutely amazing. The minivan was exceptionally comfortable, the driver was very friendly and Avi provided homemade snacks and ice cold bottles of water throughout the day. Avi was a brilliant guide, and everything was planned to perfection. He kept the day flowing at a good pace while allowing us time to explore, ask questions and take it all in. He even facilitated a few extra experiences that were requested by the group on the day. He was extremely knowledgeable, bringing history and legend to life through stories and was able to answer all the questions from a mixed-faith group visiting Jerusalem for the first time. I can’t recommend Avi enough - the best guide if you are planning to visit Jerusalem!

Great tour
Avi was really knowledgeable and friendly. He arranged the pick up from our hotel and ensured we had a very nice day walking around Jerusalem's Old city. Thanks again!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much, guys. It was a pleasure to take part in a trip that was also a return to our roots. With spirituality, excitement, and a lot of fun, we had a great time together. I would be happy to host you again in the future.

Walking through history
We were connected with Avi to arrange a day trip from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and he exceeded every expectation. Our group included both first-timers and people who had already explored Israel, yet he struck the perfect balance for everyone. Avi handled every detail effortlessly — arranging upscale transport and designing an itinerary that felt truly personalised. His depth of knowledge about Jerusalem was remarkable; even the returning visitors in our group discovered new stories, places, and perspectives. Exploring the city with Avi felt like watching history come alive around us. An exceptional guide who turned a great day into a memorable one. We’d recommend him without hesitation.

Personalized Day Trips to Dead Sea and Jerusalem
We did two one-day trips with Avi. He did a great job of taking us to the places off the beaten path as well as the places you definitely need to see while in Israel. We fit in a ton of great sites each day and he was great the whole time. Would definitely recommend.
Response from the operator: thenks it was tow particularly days

Amazing Trip full of History and Enrichment
We had an amazing trip thanks to Avi. He was very aware of our limited time and managed to curate a trip for us that allowed us to experience more in the day we had then in probably any other trip I have ever taken. Jerusalem is simply one of the most impressive and inspirational places I have I ever traveled to and having a caring expert like Avi to guide you on your way ensures that you can experience all it has to offer. I can highly recommend his services, as we already have done for friends and family who all have similarly had great experiences.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tel Aviv.
How much does Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem cost?
+
Prices start at $902 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tel Aviv usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Tel Aviv is not rushed.
Is Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tel Aviv, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem?
+
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 Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem?
+
Around 2 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 Tel Aviv 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 Tel Aviv and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private day trip to the Old City of Jerusalem 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 Tel Aviv 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 Tel Aviv?
+
On Outty we rank every Tel Aviv experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Carmel Market Tasting Tour - LocaLocal, Guided Pub Crawl Night Tour at Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv Street Art & Graffiti Tour. 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 Tel Aviv?
+
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 Tel Aviv?
+
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.
