Jerusalem Old City - Basements and Rooftops Private Walking Tour

Join me to discover the basement spaces and rooftops in Jerusalem's Old City! You will get a good workout as we climb to the vistas of the rooftops and descend to the underground spaces. Jerusalem is built in layers - we will explore beyond the street level. At the Tower of David Museum we'll climb Phasael Tower and see one of the most breathtaking vistas of Jerusalem. We'll see the Kishle - Herod's Palace remains. We'll venture to the basement of buildings where we'll walk on 2000 year-old stones from a Roman thoroughfare. Did you know you can find authentic Austrian strudel in the heart of the Old City? We'll climb to the rooftop of the Austrian hospice for a bird's eye view of the Dome of the Rock. We'll feel the devotion as we descend to the basement and see where the fragments of the cross were found by Queen Helena
