Must see locations - All three locations were amazing. The tour requires a fair amount of hiking in Ein Gedi and Masada, but it is absolutely worth it! Driving through the Judean desert is beautiful, floating in the Dead Sea is a unique experience everyone should try. The views in Ein Gedi and Masada are incredible.

Masada at Noon? - Moshe was an excellent tour guide, knowledgable and open to many questions, I hadn't been to the Dead Sea in 20 years and it was sad to see its deterioration and the beach was kind of gross but so it is. My only real criticism was the less-than brilliant decision to tour Masada at noon, but we had a cloudy day and so it was tolerable.

Great Tour - Great tour of the area! The group was about 20 people and we had a nice large bus so we could spread out. Ein Gedi was closed due to a landslide so they redirected us to a short hike through a stream. It was nice and refreshing from the heat of the day. Bring lots of water because this area is very hot! Jeremy our guide was great - there were some odd situations with other tourists that he navigated beautifully. I would recommend this tour for people that are able to walk for hours in 110/44 degrees. Probably not the best tour for the elderly or out of shape tourists due to the heat and 25k steps you’ll walk that day.

Day trip to Masada Dead sea and Ein gedi - You go quickly through Masada, Ein gedi was amazing with the quick walk around the waterfalls and for dead sea the time was not enough if you want to eat . The company should definitely add 1 more hour at dead Sea instead of the cosmetics shop.

Dead Sea experience was amazing! - Anat-our tour guide from tourist Israel had a big task of managing 37 people in our group but she was ready for the task! She had the enthusiasm and knowledge to make this trip enjoyable-the Dead Sea portion was most memorable!
