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.

Assaf guided us through a 3 trip up the north coast of Israel and then the Golan Heights.
Within minutes you feel like he is an old friend, his... read more enthusiasm is infectious and he's great fun to be with. Clearly very knowledgeable about history & religion, but pitches it just right for his audience. Gave us a very interesting insight into the Kibbutz system.
Good news - he also knows the best places to eat!

Assaf was perfect for us. We are a family of 5 with 3 young kids. He's personable, on-time, well-informed, and was chill when our 19 month-old was fussy (at least... read more twice a day). He guided us for 5 days in his new ride: Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, north and south Israel. The kids loved him. He blended must-see sites, history, philosophy, markets, great food; he was accommodating too, positing options based-on how the kids were fairing. Solid guy. Highly recommended.
