Exploring the Ramon Crater - Great Experience for Both Walkers and Wheelchair Users
We took a 2 hour jeep tour of the crater with guide Na'or, who was excellent! Because my husband is disabled and cannot walk, we specifically asked for a tour in which we toured only in the jeep, without any hiking. Na'or arrived at our hotel with a large Landrover, but because it sat very high up on the axle, my husband couldn't get in. Na'or phoned the office and quickly came back with a Landrover with a programable height, so that my husband was able to easily enter the jeep at a lower height. The jeep was then raised to a height capable of maneuvering offroad through the crater. Even though we did not hike around, the tour covered magnificent areas of the crater with its colorful rock formations, and we received fascinating information about how the crater was created. This was my 2nd jeep tour in the Ramon Crater with Israel Desert Tours. The 1st, in 2024, was a 4 hour, solo tour, which included some walking about - also very intersting and which covered different areas. I highly recomment Israel Desert Tours - Adam Sela for it's wide variety of activities, the high quality of their guides, and the personal attention given to customer requirements in each and every tour.

Adam gave us a wonderful tour of the machtesh!!
Went on the 2 hour Mitzpe Ramon machtesh tour with Adam.Highly recommend!! Adam is friendly, knowledgeable and considerate; he did a 'show and tell' of how the area evolved geologically, and answered our many questions, including those related to biblical history.
