There are two kinds of tour;one that you book in advance and one that you join if it's taking place.
Naturally if you want to join a tour that's taking place all you need to do is call the evening before to make sure it's taking place.
The pre reserved tour is custom made according to your interests whereas the non reserved tour is according to a fixed program, which sometimes I can change according to the wishes of the participants.
Pre reserved tours take place according to convenient arrangement between me and the tourist.
Non reserved tours take place only on Mondays and Wednesdays between 1000 and 1300 hrs, subject to me being available

Easy walk

As mentioned several times already, all the walks are easy.
We start from quite a high elevation, the City Hall, and continue walking downhill towards the Jaffa gate.
So that we eventually get to the Wailing Wall.
On our way to the Jaffa gate we follow a beautiful shaded pedestrian walk way with beautiful views of the City Wall


Distance and time

We walk about 1 KM in total, i.e.1/2 mile
There are plenty of rest stops along the way, allowing time for questions and explanations, the walks take about 3 hours


Cost of a walk

The cost has been kept to a minimum, so that as many people as possible can afford to participate
Even if you are alone you still pay only $15 or NIS60 adult or $7 or NIS30 child under 12
The walls walk costs a little more, $18 or NIS80 for adults and $8 or NIS55 for children, because it includes entry to the walls path

Jerusalem Kaleidescope Walk

This walk takes you through the Jaffa gate into the various quarters of Old Jerusalem
After passing through the Armenian quarter we come to the Jewish Quarter, the only area of Jerusalem where extensive archaeological digging has revealed the most ancient parts of Jerusalem, like a wall from the time of king Hezekiah, a road from Roman times and several ancient, beautifully reconstructed synagogues.
