Landausflug zum Hafen von Ashdod: Tagestour nach Jerusalem und Bethlehem ab Hafen von Ashdod

Our favourite time on the tour was with our tour guide Avi. Took us into the old city. He was knowledgeable and understanding. I would like to know if Avi is safe. With all the horrors that’s the enfolding in his country. He was a caring man.

Great excursion, all on time, great explanation in each place. Great food, the guide was very kind i tecomend this company.

Terrible experience. Could not get into port. The lady at the info desk said this was not the first time. We had to drive 2 1/2 hours back the next day just so that we could see Jerusalem and Bethlehem. The lady from the office Ashdod information desk was amazing. Thank goodness for her help. Complete waste of the day as we could not book another tour. The ship was completely booked. Definitely look for another tour guide. Bein Harim the worst. TripAdvisor should exclude them from their tours!!!!

Yoav Malachi was our wonderful guide on this one day tour. He covered a lot in the one day so it was a fast paced tour. Yoav was the perfect guide, keeping the group of 29 together in such a busy city is a difficult task which he managed with good humor. The tour was the highlight of our 7 day cruise and fulfilled a lifetime goal to see the holy land.

Well taken care of, just miss a sound system. Everything we wanted and was offered. Also the tour guide was fine and told fine. Only because the group was very large, it was sometimes difficult to understand

This tour had poor communication on pick up location which resulted in people being lost and late trying to find the bus. We were all from the Norwegian Jade ship and had to meet the tour bus in Ashdod outside the Sea Mall but the instructions were too vague. The tour guide seemed impatient with tourists. We drove to Jerusalem and entered at Jaffa gate. The guide advised there was a small washroom at the gate and too many women went and we ended up waiting 35 mins for them all to get back. The tour guide should have found a different restroom stop in the old city that was less crowded!! This resulted in him RUSHING the tour through the old city quarters, walking so fast most could not keep up with him. The small alleys were packed with cruise ship tours and almost impossible to move in. The guide took us to the Christ church in the Muslim quarter which was chaotic and disorganised packed with way too many people to either see or enjoy. The Western Wall was worth witnessing and we did have enough time there. The tour has a LOT of steps and stairs and winding uphill alleys which should be explained in the tour details. This is NOT a tour that someone that has mobility issues or is not fit should be taking in the heat. We were held up several times waiting for people to catch up who were struggling to cope with all the walking and stairs. We did not have any time to stop in the little shops in the old city and the lunch stop was planned by the tour at an over priced upstairs falafel counter who charged ridiculous Euros prices (22) for a falafel or sharawrma sandwich and drink!!! This The 2nd stop was Bethlehem. This was disappointing. It was over crowded, hot and disorganised and should be at the BEGINNING of the tour (if at all) so the group has time to shop in Jerusalem old town. We asked the guide to allow us to shop somewhere in Bethlehem and we were dropped at a run down, grubby, mall with over priced poor quality items and a store that only sold insanely priced Christian carvings. This is not what most on our bus wanted and was a waste of time. If you are choosing a Jerusalem excursion choose one that allows for free time in the Old City and without lunch stop included. If we could do it over we would have skipped the chaos at the Christ church and spent the time wandering in the spice and gift shops in the Christian quarter, chose our own lunch spot, and met the guide back at the Jaffa gate at a predetermined time. It would have been far more enjoyable than the stress of keeping up with our guide racing through lanes and alleys packed with tourists.

Very poor experience. Look elsewhere if you can. They couldn't get into the port to meet us and never advised ANYONE on the ship. We had to take a shuttle for 35 minutes to meet them at the Sea Mall. They waited 2 hours for people to come which cut into our time for the tour. Once a lifetime experience was totally ruined by them. The guide was OK, Many sites went unseen because of their issues at Bein Harim. They took us to their lunch place which was a total rip-off for the price with poor taste. Frankly, they didn't care.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. It was one of the highlights of my trip. Dan Porges was our guide. He was friendly, funny, knowledgeable and efficient. From the time the bus took off, we were learning facts and history about our destination. I highly recommend going on a guided tour. We would have wandered aimlessly without Dan. It’s a very long day, be prepared for that. I thought lunch was included, it was not. We stopped at a restaurant as a group and enjoyed an incredible meal.

Enterprise didn’t wait for us, there were many people in migration and we left a few minutes late. They told us they'd refund our money and nothing until now.

We got to see every places listed on the itinerary but it was very rush. The tour guide stopped at a store where they had jewelries, status, and many other religious items. As we also stoped at other similar stores and the price was much cheaper at the store were taken to. It was an identical piece of jewelry. We just didn’t understand that. Overall it was okay.
