Davidka Square er en historisk offentlig plads beliggende i hjertet af Jerusalem, Israel. Den er opkaldt efter Davidka, en hjemmelavet mørtel brugt af jødiske styrker under den arabisk-israelske krig i 1948. Pladsen er omgivet af bemærkelsesværdige vartegn, herunder Mahane Yehuda-markedet, gågaden Jaffa Road og Jerusalems letbanestation. I dag fungerer pladsen som et travlt transportknudepunkt og et populært samlingssted for både lokale og turister.
Vores Meet the Ultra-Orthodox Jews Tour er designet til at give dig et indblik i den rige kulturelle og religiøse identitet hos de ultraortodokse jøder, bedre kendt som Haredim eller "Gud fearers", der bor i Jerusalem. Vi besøger et traditionelt kvarter, som ikke typisk besøges af turister, hvilket giver dig mulighed for at fjerne sløret af en kultur, som de fleste mennesker kun har observeret udefra. Turen guides af et medlem af det lokale ultraortodokse samfund, som vil tage dig en tur rundt i gaderne i et nærliggende ultraortodoks kvarter. Undervejs vil din guide påpege mange betydningsfulde religiøse symboler, skikke og steder. Du vil også blive vist steder som en boghandel, musikbutik, restaurant, typisk bageri, tøjbutik, synagoge, Yeshiva med mere for at få et indblik i. Bemærk, at nogle af disse steder ikke vil være mulige at komme ind, da det er forbudt af lokalsamfundet, så du får et glimt udefra med forklaringer fra din guide.

I had a tour booked for today, 9th February, at 4:30pm leaving from Abraham Jerusalem, at Davidka Square. I showed up at the place and nobody appeared. I wrote to the company with no avail; nobody explained what happened? The person at the reception desk of where used to be Abraham Jerusalem Hostel, where it should be the starting point (it is not the same hostel anymore, and they say nothing in the website!) said she knew of no tour leaving from there! No tour. No explanation. I want the refund of the money paid!
I was expecting a real immersion in the Israeli Orthodox Jewish world and this excursion did not meet my expectations. The guide is a former member of the Orthodox community, so his explanations are turned in a negative way towards this community, without real objectivity. We did not interact with members of the community, the only visit to a business was in a bookstore. Does not correspond to people who know the Jewish world because they will learn nothing, and those who know nothing about it will come away with a negative vision of this community which is nevertheless fascinating.

This is an amazing tour! Motti was very good in explaining everything about the Haredim and answered to any questions we had. He is extremely knowledgeable and even brought us to experience one of the best Jewish food in the neighbourhood. I highly recommend it, this is a must go tour if you’re interested in the Jewish culture. Very informative and I’ve learned a lot.

We're thrilled that you found the tour highly informative and left with valuable insights. Thank you for choosing our tour, and we hope to welcome you back for more enriching experiences in the future. Best regards,
How do I begin....Just to some it up, the tour is done by a man who was born and bred in Mear Sharim but is completely anti everything the neighborhood stands for and is secular. He describes the Jews in this neighborhood as radical and brings mostly negative views about them. Didn't enjoy it. I'm glad we accidentally lost the tour and enjoyed just walking thru and speaking to the locals ourselves for over an hour who were really kind and friendly, not radical at all. Chaya and Eli
Although our walk around the Orthodox area was pleasant, and our guide quite interesting, this tour was not at all what was advertised. It was more like a lecture 'on the hoof' and the only places we stopped were in a small bookshop and also a store selling religious clothing. We did not : Visit a working synagogue See a community center and a soup kitchen Meet a Haredi family in their own home to learn about their culture Step inside a bakery to sample Jewish pastries and bread or Browse ancient Jewish artifacts inside a local library i queried the length of the tour, and it is 2 1/2 hours, not 4 ( which was fine for us)
I found the tour good though I found the explanations of the guide were more important and enlightening than the walk through the neighborhood. The main streets are with few people and nothing different from what I saw in the streets of other neighborhoods in Jerusalem. Also we did not enter the neighborhood considered more orthodox since the guide said that sometimes they could be violent.
This tour was extremely interesting. The tour guide was extremely knowledgable, interesting and funny. We learned a lot and really enjoyed it.
We came to Israel for our honeymoon and we’ve been doing several tours here so far and this was one of the best tours we did in Israel! Motti was sincere, fun, and informative!! He was in the society and that’s why he was able to explain with so much details. It was very interesting and I think we learned a lot about Jewish society in the most interesting way!! Thank you so much for offering this tour, it is unforgettable!!!!
Guide was knowledgeable and have an interesting, fair and balanced view of this segment of current Israeli society
Very interesting tour of the ultra orthodox Jewish neighbourhood of Jerusalem by Mordechai ‘Motti’ who was a former Haredi Ultra orthodox member himself. Very informative and entertaining. The tour took us deep into the heart of the community over nearly three hours and we were fascinated. This tour is highly recommended.
