The Old City of Jerusalem was breathtaking but I can't imagine the experience without my guide, Marco. His knowledge and passion made for an unforgettable day filled with history and culture, and gave me an even greater understanding of the significance Jerusalem. From the Mt. Of Olives to The Western Wall to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, I learned and experienced so much without being overwhelmed or feeling lectured to. Marco's style was so engaging and enjoyable I can't wait to see him again "next year in the Holy Land."
