Jerusalem: Tour mit zwei Erzählungen

This was an incredible experience for myself and my teenager. Elad and Mahmoud didn't just guide, they shared their lived experience and gave us a window into this conflict through their stories and their friendship. It is the perfect way to engage more critically while also seeing the holy sites of the Old City.

One of the best tours we have ever taken! Loved the perspective from both guides and history between different religious and political sides to get a deeper understanding of how these influences affect a single nation. Betty and Ameer were incredible, knowledgeable, well educated and experienced. Highly, highly recommend.

One of the best tours I ever had, the experience of having two guides with different perspectives was unique. The tour covered the many layers of history in Jerusalem, the narratives of the different people who called it home over the years and the current political situation.

It was meaningful to hear different perspectives in a city that is infinitely complex in its story. Our guides embodied understanding and kindness towards each other. That, in itself, was powerful to experience.

This is an amazing tour. Our guides were very knowledgeable and explained us everything we need to know about the different points of view. All discussions were very informative and always led in a polite way, each one respecting different opinions. I think this tour is a must to understand what’s going on in Israel and how the several issues affect both the Jewish and Arabic population.

I would highly Recommend the dual narrative tool over any of the tour in Jerusalem. Emili and Amy did an incredible job of giving an honest Palestinian and Israeli perspective. They were willing to answer any, and all questions that you had and their knowledge is incredible. They were very friendly and welcoming, and I cannot speak highly enough of them and the tour, so much so that I have asked them to be guest speakers at an event.

This tour was a great experience. Our guides did a great job explaining many sites around Jerusalem from both Jewish and Palestinian pints of view. It's the kind of insight you can't get any other way on a short trip to this wonderful city.

The trip was quite informative and interesting. We also appreciated that we visited a large number of sites. Our Palestinian tour guide was much more experienced and spoke better English than our Israeli guide, so it was not a fully balanced tour. We were fine with this since we already knew the Israeli side fairly well. Still, a more balanced tour would have been preferred.

You cover a lot of ground in this tour of the Old City, which runs nearly five hours long. From the Armenian quarter to the Wailing Wall to Dome on the Rock, you can see a lot of the major sites in the Old City and hear perspectives on the city and life in Jerusalem from both a Jewish and Muslim guide. PROS: * Two guides for the price of one! You can hear insight from two different perspectives * Though the Armenian quarter is a bit sparse (it is what it is in terms of what there is to see) we did cover all four quarters of the Old City * Not just the sights of the city but local insight into living in the city and the social and political issues at play CONS: * Little opportunity to sit during the five hours so you are on your feet almost the whole time, there were times when seating was available very nearby but the guides had us gathered instead where it wasn't available * The two guides did have different viewpoints but they were not as differing as I had hoped as they were on, say, the Hebron tour, which I felt did a much better job as the 'dual narrative' aspect of the city and its inhabitants

The dual tour was almost 5 hours long and covered the main sites of Jerusalem. The two guides were nice and tried to explain their point of view, even though from the Israeli side we couldn’t get a thorough point of view. The sites are visited quite fast, there is not really time to woo sera around
