Here’s an advertisement I found on the Internet. FYI, 1200 ILS is about US $414. depending on the exchange rate for up to 4 people, then $483 for 5 or 6 and $552. for up to 8 for the half day private tour listed here. You can try to find a similar tour that is cheaper or just book my tour for US $250. – it’s almost a give-away.

They say you’ll get to visit the Dome of the Rock & Al Aqsa mosque but note that if you’re not Muslim visit means only from the outside, you won’t be able to enter.

And for 1200ILS, who is your guide? Who knows. When you book my tour, I’m your guide and experienced. Here’s a comment from one client:
“Shmuel is hands down the BEST tour guide we’ve ever had and our tour of Jerusalem was literally the highlight of our trip to Israel! Shmuel’s knowledge of history, politics, archaeology, architecture and religion is unsurpassed, He is very thoughtful, interesting, and clearly loves what he does. Rather than taking us to see “everything”, he consistently gauged our interest and provided an in-depth understanding of where we were and what we were seeing. His enthusiasm for learning and exploring was infectious, and our family, including our teens, soaked it up and had a truly memorable experience.”
