Israel is open for business, ask for Dorit and Dan!
Unbelievable experience! We have been on dozens of tours and none of them come close to our custom tour with Dorit and Dan via Ben Harim Tours! They were so warm and knowledgeable that over the course of 3 days they became like family to us. Dorit with her charm and flexibility was always ready to meet all our needs and Dan with his driving and security made us feel like we were being pampered every step of our unforgettable journey. If you come to Israel and don’t book this tour you haven’t experienced the fullness of this special place!

Response from the operator: Great to read you have had a memorable tour experience under Eric's guidance. He deserves your feedback for his professional effort.

Great tour of Old Ciry & Herodium
A fantastic day - great itinerary and our guide Erez was excellent - highly knowledgeable with great communication skills and accommodating of our groups preferences. The trip to Herodium was the highlight of the day. We highly recommend this trip and would take another with Erez.. We were also impressed with the arrangements for meeting our guide and his communication with us the day before the tour. Top marks for this tour.
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for this sincere feedback and most of all we appreciate your expression of gratitude for the excellent tour guide Erez. He sure deserves your praise for his efforts and enlightening commentary.

Enjoyable tours with Bein Harim Tours
Did two private tours with Bein Harim Tours. A one day tour of old Jerusalem and Bethlehem and also a one day tour to Masada and the Dead Sea. Both with Gil as our tour guide who was excellent. The private tour was well worth the money versus being on a bus tour with lots of other people. Would definitely recommend this tour company
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for sharing that you have had 2 excellent and worthwhile tour experiences with our company. and our guide GIl.The private tour experience obviously offers the best form of travel and custom made experience. Your sincere recommendation is much appreciated.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from Jerusalem: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jerusalem.
How much does Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from Jerusalem cost?
+
Prices start at $500 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 Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from Jerusalem take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from Jerusalem worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 20 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 Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from 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 Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from Jerusalem suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from Jerusalem?
+
Around 7 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour : Jerusalem Old city day trip from 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 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.
