After a couple of large group tours to see other areas of Israel, my husband and I decided that a private tour would be preferable in seeing the Old City in Jerusalem. And we made the right decision. We engaged Adiel, who lives in Jerusalem and has many years of experience in guiding private tours. He was able to tailor the tour to our interests, spending more time on some Quarters and less on others. He really knew his way around and was very knowledgeable about the history of each area. Adiel also showed us some "hidden gems" which would probably not be on the agenda in a bigger tour, such as the Little Western Wall, or Kotel Katan. If not for Adiel we would never have known it existed. We were able to keep a brisk pace to fit everything we wanted to see in the 4 hours. Adiel was friendly, pleasant, knowledgeable and we would recommend him highly for anyone wanting a private tour.
