We are very grateful to Shmuel who guided us through the history of the Old City and provided the right level of information for the time available (half day). Highly recommended. Thank you.

I would highly recommend this tour with Shmuel. Even though I have been to the Old City of Jerusalem several times, I learned so much, and went places I would never have gone on my own, thanks to Shmuel. Even areas that I had seen before took on new meaning as I gained understanding of their significance. Shmuel did assume a certain amount of Bible knowledge, and interest in the names of minor players in the more recent history of the old city that were not relevant to us. Otherwise it was a 5 star event.

Shmuel did a great job. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave great context to what we were seeing. We felt very comfortable in his presence which is important for us in visiting a foreign city. We saw and heard things in four hours we never would of discovered on our own in a week's time. I would not hesitate in recommending Shmuel to family and friends in the future.

Shmuel was fantastic! He was responsive to my needs in the planning and flexible when my plans changed because my flight was delayed because of weather. We met up according to plan and spent a wonderful day walking in the Old City based on my interests (he asked in the beginning and as we continued). Throughout, he provided detailed information -- history, context, etc -- about what I was seeing. A highlight was an impromptu concert in one of the churches. Would definitely call on Shmuel again!

Thanks for Shmuel for a fantastic walking tour in Jerusalem. He is very knowledgeable of history, architecture and basically anything that you want to know about Jerusalem. We truly enjoyed spending a day with him. Thanks again, Shmuel. My family was very touched by the Old City and you were part of this wonderful experience. I highly recommend Shmuel to be your tour guide. Timea and Lev, Colorado USA

This tour was great! Shmuel has in depth knowledge of The Old City and had an interesting anecdote about everything we passed! He showed us places that we wouldn't have seen by ourselves. He was really friendly and was flexible around our group's needs. Thanks Shmuel!
