7-timers Jerusalem politisk guidet tur fra Jerusalem
Beskrivelse
Dette er vores flagskibsturné og kan sætte scenen for yderligere udforskning af landet. Oplevelsen er beregnet til alle, der er interesserede i at udvide deres viden om konflikten mellem israelerne og palæstinenserne, for at gå lidt ud over 'Dem og os'-diskursen og lære af en guide, der har indgående kendskab til problematikken som samt et alternativt perspektiv.

Rejseplan
Det første trin på turen bringer os til den gamle by, hvor du vil modtage en detaljeret briefing, hvor du lærer om hundrede års historie fra den sene osmanniske periode til nutiden. Du vil også få en kort introduktion til israelsk besættelses- og bosættelsesindsats i den gamle by og det nærliggende hellige bassin. Morgenturen vil fokusere på centraliteten af den gamle by i Jerusalem for de tre monoteistiske religioner, mens vi udforsker nogle af de synlige ikoner fra den israelske besættelse, herunder jødiske bosættelser i det kristne kvarter og det muslimske kvarter, med diskussion af deres historie og implikationer.
Derefter tager vi en vandretur i den gamle by, går ind ved Damaskus-porten gennem de travle markeder og lærer om opdelingen af byen, mens vi også besøger nogle af stederne. Vi besøger Western Wall Plaza i kernen af den gamle by, som blev skabt over stedet for det ødelagte Mugrabe-kvarter i kølvandet på 1967-krigen. Du vil også lære om Tempelbjergets og Al Aqsas hellighed i jødedommen og islam, og dets centrale i konflikten.
Efter frokost vil der være endnu en kort briefing, efterfulgt af en tur for at lære om fakta, mens du kører gennem østjerusalem-bosættelser og palæstinensiske kvarterer. Vi stopper ved forskellige imponerende udsigtspunkter, som tegner et klart billede af de distinkte forskelle mellem Øst- og Vestjerusalem inklusiv de moderne kontortårne og motorveje i den vestlige del af byen og uforseglede veje og æsler, der rides i øst. Du vil have en chance for at se den smukke panoramaudsigt tilbage til den gamle by i Jerusalem. Den næste del af vores tur tager os ned ad 'sømlinjevejen', der deler øst- og vestjerusalem, og passerer områder, der blev erobret af jødiske styrker i 1948-krigen, og hvis palæstinensiske indbyggere for det meste fik flygtningestatus af FN. Du vil se israelske bosættelser både fra den tidsperiode såvel som mere moderne kolonier.
Dernæst vil du få et nærmere kig på den berygtede mur på Vestbredden - nogle gange kaldet adskillelsesbarrieren - som deler ikke kun arabere og jøder, men mange steder palæstinensiske samfund. Dette er også et passende tidspunkt at lære om årsagerne til, at muren blev bygget, hvor godt den forhindrede terrorisme og overvågningen af de palæstinensiske beboere.
Det sidste stop giver besøgende en chance for at se den palæstinensiske landsby Anata, som er omgivet af muren. Du vil finde ud af om Ma'aleh Adumim, en af de største bosættelser på Vestbredden, og vi kan besøge byens yderposter og lære om fordrivelsen af den lokale Jahalin-beduin. Nogle af udkigspunkterne inkluderer fængslende udsigter over Judæaørkenen og planlægningszonen 'E1', der er sat til at blive fyldt med nye bosættelseskvarterer og turisthoteller.

Anyone interested in the political situation should take this tour or another offered by the green olive collective. Rather than just sightseeing, you'll learn about the ideological conflict from the perspective of Palestinian nationalism.
Excellent tour with one of the best guides we've ever had. Malkon was incredibly smart, engaging and open. He gave us a great tour that was a perfect mix of historical facts and personal and general opinions, always making sure to point out which was which. His analysis and perspective were well-informed and clearly presented a viewpoint without trying to push it down our throats. We learned so much and truly enjoyed our day with him, only wishing we had more time. Definitely recommend!
Thanks JMFeld! We are glad you had a meaningful experience. Malkon is a superb guide and we're always impressed with his ability to provide engaging information about the history, culture, and politics of the region. Safe travels and we hope to see you soon.
Excellent tour with a very knowledgable guide. Learned so much about the political situation on the ground in and around Jerusalem.
Thanks so much 799sahers! We're so glad it was meaningful and informative and that your guide was able to shed light on the reality of Jerusalem. Safe travels and we hope to see you in the future.
We visited Jerusalem for the first time and did not have a lot of time but wanted to get an overview of the current situation as well. Superbly prepared guide and really interesting tour. Not to be missed
Thank you Belsalai17! We are so glad to have hosted you during your first visit to Jerusalem and that we could help give some insight into the reality on the ground. Safe travels and we hope to see you again!
This was my first visit to Palestine, and although I thought I knew much about live under occupation, I learned so much more about the reality Palestinians have to face every day through this tour. All the guides were very passionate about their work and did an amazing job. The families I lived and spent time with were just very kind and lovely people, and I hope I can return soon. Will highly recommend this tour, what an unforgettable experience! Thank you for everything.
Thank you nk637! We're grateful for international visitors like you who want to see the reality on the ground with their own eyes. Safe travels and we hope to see you in the future.
This was our first time visiting Israel and the Old City. We met up with our guide Yehav, an incredibly knowledgeable and articulate interpreter of the history, politics and geography of Palestine, Israel, and the West Bank over the last 100 years. After orientation using a series of historical maps, we set off through Damascus Gate and on to various key outlooks. There is no substitute for viewing "the facts on the ground." Yehav presented the history and current situation objectively and with evidence. We also enjoyed an excellent lunch at a "no name" restaurant in the Muslim Quarter.
Thanks Mlbrow - I am pleased you found our tour worthwhile. Do come again. Fred Schlomka - Managing Partner
We took both the 4 hour Greater Jerusalem tour and the 3 hour Old City Jerusalem tour (some people take them on the same day but we broke it up over two days). The experience was life changing. Our tour guide Rotem was incredibly knowledgeable and gracious. We learned so much history and now have a greatly expanded understanding of the situation in the area and how it impacts the daily life of its residents. We saw sacred sites, we saw refugee camps, we met residents, and so much more. And yes, Rotem always made sure we had bathroom breaks, and water breaks, and the bus (for the Greater Jerusalem portion) was very clean and had an excellent driver. Green Olive is fantastic. I can't recommend them enough.
Thanks Heather for your appreciation of our tour and Rotem's guiding. We hopw to see you again. _____ Fred Schlomka, Managing Partner
