The Old City of Jerusalem holds within its ancient walls incredible stories dating 3000 years back. The stories of kings and conquerors, rebellions, exiles, myths, faith, miracles, and bloody wars are all layers upon layers accumulated over time, waiting to be peeled away and retold.
The Old City has always been a residential area. Today, it is home to various communities belonging to the 3 large monotheistic faiths, residing in four quarters (Armenian, Christian, Jewish, and Muslim). However, in spite of the fact that the space within the walls is rather small (less than one square kilometer), it is also packed with important religious sites frequented year-round by people from all over the world.
On this tour, we will visit some of the Old City’s most symbolic religious and historic sites such as the Western Wall, the Via Dolorosa, and The Church of Holy Sepulcher, the Room of Last Supper and King David’s Tomb on Mount Zion and much more. While we walk from site to site we will be able to observe the local communities as they go about their day-to-day lives.
The itinerary is one of many optional itineraries that can be planned as a day tour in the Old City. We at Aizen Travel offer highly customized tours, based on a continuous dialogue with our clients. We make it our priority to tailor-suit tours based on preferences, needs, budget, and interests, ensuring your Old City experience will be perfect. Changes can also be made on-the-go as your day with the guide unfolds.

Our family have had great guides in many counties, but they should take lessons from Assaf. From the moment we met him, we knew we would get along. He’s easygoing,... read more flexible, and the kind of person you’d hang out with. He’s also a fountain of information on history, geography, even the flora and fauna of his county. He speaks excellent English and communicates in a friendly and yet informative way. He’ll go the extra mile to pick a eucalyptus branch for my mom or locate a hard to find souvenir. He’s also a major foodie and we loved all of his recommendations. His van is new, spotless and comfortable. What else can I say? Our family trip to Israel was elevated to a life changing experience because of Assaf. Message to Touring Israel, the agency who matched him with us - this man is a keeper!

We visited Israel for the first time, and had Assaf guide us through this amazing experience. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the sites and region in general is superlative, and... read more that made our visit deeply engaging. Always easygoing and flexible to what you need to see or do, he is a limb above the several guides we have used before. Thanks, Assaf !!!
Should you ever visit Israel, do not hesitate in contacting him !
PS Ask him about the delicious local cuisine, and more importantly, indulge

ASSAF IS THE GUIDE YOU WANT FOR YOUR TRIP TO ISRAEL - I cannot say enough great things about how good Assaf was as our guide. Better than 5 stars in my opinion. For 10 days, Assaf took us around Israel... read more from Tel Aviv, to Haifa, all the way up north, then down to Jerusalem, with many stops in between. This is the second time my family has used Assaf as our guide, and he was specifically requested for this trip. Assaf knows all in the in's and out's to make your trip memorable. He is very puntucal each morning, and hits all the spots on your trip as scheudled. He is very very professional, knowledgeable, accommodating, and a true pleasure to be with each day. He knows a lot and will teach you a lot. He provides a very personal experience that is top rate. It felt like my relative taking me on a tour of Israel. While we did go to all the big ticket "touristy" spots, he also took us on really fun activities and hit other spots that were uniquely differenet and new. He shows you and lets you experience the local vibe and cuisine of each city you visit. Assaf knows all the local great local food spots as well. Assaf takes the time to make sure you are getting the most out of your trip. He goes abnove and beyond what you would expect. There was a very specific hanukkiah I was in search of during my trip. Although I never found it during my trip, I gave Assaf a picture of it and he said he would use his resources to find it. Well wouldn't youi know it, 2 weeks after I returned home he contacted me to let me know he found. Never thought it would happen. Amazing. Not just any guide would do that after the fact. That's what makes him great. I will definitely be using and recommending Assaf in the future.
