Jerusalem: Guided Walking Tour of the Old City

2.Guided Walking Tour of the Old City

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 386 reviews · 4 hours · from $57

Start at Jaffa Gate and spend four hours walking Jerusalem’s Old City with an English-speaking guide. Visit the Western Wall, Via Dolorosa, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and viewpoints toward Temple Mount. Guides such as Tania, Shahar, Yoni, and Alex are praised for clear storytelling, careful pacing, and thoughtful explanations of Jewish, Muslim, and Christian traditions.

“Amazing tour guide Talia had lots of knowledge she gave the 3 major sites of Jerusalem the perfect amount of time to see the site and learn about its history. We felt very safe in the Muslim quarter and we had some amazing local falafel. Our guide answered questions very well. We stopped at one shop and bought a lovely chess set and Shabbat candles from very friendly vendors (but attempt to haggle down the price a bit to keep some money for the other shops). I really recommend this tour to other English speaking tourists.”

Guides such as Tomer, Frank, Daniel, and Avishay have earned strong praise, but pickup and group logistics can be uneven.

“The overall feeling my family and I of 5 adults got from this tour was that it was very disorganized and didn’t give much history. A big group of tourists and us got picked up in the morning, went to a meeting spot, and at this meeting spot we were supposed to get into different busses according to the tour we were going on. When we got to this meeting spot there were people and busses everywhere, no one knew where anyone was supposed to go or which bus we were supposed to get on. 30-40 minutes later a tour guide finally shows up and has a list of ppl…”
