Itinerario
Lo que los musulmanes llaman Al-Aksa y los judíos llaman al Monte del Templo podría describirse como la conexión entre el Cielo y la Tierra. Es el sitio de la Cúpula de la Roca y la Mezquita de al-Aksa, y es donde estaban los Templos de Salomón y Herodes. Este lugar representa donde cristianos, judíos y musulmanes imaginan la paz que nos espera a todos en el futuro.
Este es el sitio más aceptado para la Crucifixión y Resurrección de Jesús. Está lleno de capillas y artefactos que narran las historias de Jesús, sus seguidores y los creyentes que dieron forma al cristianismo a lo largo de los siglos. Restauraciones recientes abren la posibilidad de ver obras de arte impresionantes y coloridas, escenas que han estado ocultas bajo el polvo durante siglos.
Hay tres secciones diferentes del Muro Occidental, el centro de la santidad judía durante cerca de 8 siglos. El Muro Oculto le ayuda a comprender qué significaba este muro para los judíos desde el momento en que la oración comenzó allí en el siglo XIII. Ezrat Yisrael (el área mixta de género del Muro Occidental) le permite comprender cómo está conectado este muro al Templo, la casa de Dios en la Tierra. El Muro Occidental tradicional (separado por género) le permite ver cómo el Israel moderno y su gente se relacionan con este lugar sagrado, una imagen que pone de manifiesto los desafíos y conflictos dentro de la fe judía.
Este es un sitio opcional del recorrido: el Monte Sión es un barrio de enigmas. Su mismo nombre es confuso. Visitaremos tanto la Sala de la Última Cena como la Tumba del Rey David, discutiendo si estos son los verdaderos sitios. La discusión misma sobre la validez de estos lugares sagrados, así como de la Iglesia de la Dormición que se encuentra al lado, saca a relucir coloridas historias de judíos, cristianos y musulmanes que intentan definirse a sí mismos en un mundo en constante cambio.
Este es un sitio opcional en el tour : La Jerusalén original, construida por un pequeño manantial de agua dulce, se encontraba justo al sur de las murallas de la Ciudad Vieja de hoy. En este pequeño pueblo, los cananeos crearon un sistema único de túneles y muros para proteger su suministro de agua. Estas estructuras aparecen en las historias del rey bíblico David y sus descendientes. Atravesaremos estas cuevas, explorando las historias de Reyes, palacios, batallas, entierros y milagros. [tarifa de entrada $5 - 9 (EE.UU.) por persona, no incluida en el precio del tour] (opción de atravesar un túnel húmedo que requerirá zapatos de agua y una linterna)
Este es un sitio opcional en el recorrido : El pico de esta colina es donde el Mesías entra en Jerusalén, donde Jesús ascendió al cielo, y donde la santidad se ha conmemorado durante milenios. Entre iglesias y capillas fascinantes, tumbas antiguas y barrios políticamente cargados, experimentaremos algunas de las vistas más conmovedoras de Jerusalén. [tarifa de entrada de hasta $7 (EE.UU.) por persona no incluida en el precio del tour]

Gary is an outstanding guide. Gary is deeply knowledgeable, has great stories, speaks clearly and obviously loves his work. We walked around Jerusalem’s Old City for three hours and the time flew by. He took us off the standard tourist trail, up alleyways and onto rooftops, teaching all the while. I look forward to walking with Garytheguide in other places around Israel.
Thank you for the wonderful words. The Old City of Jerusalem is such a special place. It touches your heart and inspires dreams. I think we all felt this while touring around the holy sites of Jerusalem. Thank you for experiencing this with GaryTheGuide. I look forward to seeing you back here again.

Able to balance history, spirituality and local curiosities in an engaging and captivating way. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to discover the true soul of Jerusalem through the eyes of someone who loves it with all his heart. Thank you, Gary, for an unforgettable experience! 🙌
I'm so glad that you were able to experience the uniqueness and holiness of Jerusalem. You mentioned "history, spirituality, and local curiosities." When we explored the alleyways and sites of the Old City, that's exactly what we encountered. It was truly enriching for me as we shared insights on the meaningful stories of the Holyland. I hope you will have the opportunity to see more with GaryTheGuide.

Thank you so much. It was a wonderful day to tour the Old City of Jerusalem. I couldn't have asked for better people to tour with. I was impressed by your enthusiasm and all the questions you asked. I would love to tour you anywhere in Israel next time. Thanks, GaryTheGuide
My girlfriend and I had an absolutely fantastic day exploring Jerusalem with our tour guide, Gary. From the moment we started, it was clear that Gary is a true expert in his field—passionate, knowledgeable, and incredibly engaging. He struck the perfect balance between guiding us through the city’s iconic sites and giving us plenty of time to wander, take photos, and soak in the atmosphere on our own. What really stood out was Gary’s fun and approachable style. He wove in fascinating historical, political, and religious facts as we walked, making complex topics feel accessible and exciting without ever overwhelming us. Whether we were at the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, or strolling through the bustling markets, his insights added so much depth and context that brought the city to life. Gary’s enthusiasm was contagious, and he tailored the tour to our interests, answering all our questions with patience and humor. We left feeling enriched and inspired, with a much deeper appreciation for Jerusalem’s rich tapestry. Thanks Gary!
Thank you for this glowing review. It was a wonderful day in Jerusalem's Old City. I had a great time showing you both around. Guides love it when people are interested and curious. The many questions you asked along the way are just a testament to how interesting and meaningful this city is. I would be glad to show you around anywhere in Israel. You're always welcome on tours with GaryTheGuide.
I am a traveler from Hong Kong, Gary told me so much about the history of Jerusalem, Christianity, Judaism and Muslims . The tour was excellent, I enjoyed every moment of the tour. Gary is a really good tour guide.
Thank you so much. I really enjoyed walking around the Old City with you. It's a lot of information, but I think we saw it in a meaningful and fun way. Enjoy all your time in Jerusalem, and tell your friends about GaryTheGuide.
Gary is a terrific guide. Full of enthusiasm and information. You can't go wrong if you book a tour with him. He speaks a perfect and clear English and will tailor your tour to your exact wishes.
Thanks so much. I'm always happy to tailor a tour for my tourists wishes in Jerusalem or anywhere around Israel. The country is amazing, and Jerusalem is so meaningful. Whether you like history, archeology, culture, food, or any other aspect of this country, I will make your tour be what you need. I've been lucky to have truly amazing people on my tours this year. Thank you for touring with GaryTheGuide.
Let me preface this by saying that Gary is a 10/10 tour guide! We had so much fun with him on our little tour of the Old City in Jerusalem. We arrived a little late due to some issue with the rail in Jerusalem on that day, and though he could have easily walked away, he was waiting for us with a huge smile! He then took us around the Old City, showed us some great sights, and gave us some great pointers on where to get amazing food. Gary has got a knack for telling stories. Jerusalem, and especially the Old City, is riddled with history, and the way he tells the stories makes it all feel so alive and exciting. It’s interesting, and you just want to know more. The tour was top-notch; it was insightful, funny, and relaxed—and most importantly, it showed a deep love and respect for the city and its history. I would 100% do it again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Israel
Thank you. I give you 12/10 as tourists. The Old City of Jerusalem is filled with treasures and stories to no end. Anytime you want to continue and get deeper into the alleyways and folklore, just let me know, and we can take another walk through history with GaryTheGuide.
I decided to take a Solo trip to the Holy Land just out of sheer curiosity. I came with 0 expectations and boy am I extremely grateful Gary was my guide. Firstly, there will be a crash course of history and you better be ready because it is absolutely important in understanding the holy city. Gary gave me the best highlighted facts with a thorough timeline. He provided stories of all the cultural diversity, and the most important aspect is that he was UNBIASED when explaining the diverse religions. I also had some questions of my own and he answered always without judgement and provided an informative answer. You can tell he's knowledgeable of the city and I was inspired by his passion to inform. He also gave me the best spot for Hummus which I believe was the best I've ever had. I really hope that everyone who visits Jerusalem is as lucky to have Gary as a guide. 10000000% recommend. PS: Gary is a Chicago Bears fan who is Israeli American Fun fact.

Me and my friend absolutely loved this tour (both argentinians 24 yrs old). We laughed, got emotional, and felt we were locals in the old city, thanks to Gary’s unique charm, knowledge and experience with every stone and alleyway!
Thank you so much. I had such a good time showing you both the Old City of Jerusalem. Your endless enthusiasm and curiosity at all the holy sites made the tour that much more amazing. Feel free to contact GaryTheGuide for any sites you want to see in Israel.
Our tour with Gary the Guide was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, Gary provided a rich and engaging experience that brought the history and beauty of Jerusalem to life. We began with a fascinating walking tour in Old Jerusalem, exploring iconic landmarks like the Tower of David, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, and even a remarkable tattoo parlor that has been creating art for 27 generations! Gary’s deep knowledge and passion for these sites made every moment both educational and inspiring. After Old Jerusalem, Gary guided us to the Mount of Olives, where the views were nothing short of breathtaking. We visited the Chapel of the Ascension, the serene Church of the Pater Noster, and the stunning Church of All Nations. Each site carried its own unique history and significance, which Gary explained with incredible clarity and enthusiasm. To wrap up the tour, we enjoyed a scenic drive and took in panoramic views of the city – a perfect way to reflect on the day’s journey. Gary’s expertise, warmth, and storytelling ability made this tour an unforgettable experience. He tailored the itinerary to our interests and ensured that we felt connected to the places we visited. If you’re considering a tour in Jerusalem, Gary is the guide you need. His knowledge, passion, and personal touch will leave you with memories to treasure for a lifetime. Thank you, Gary, for an extraordinary day!
