The Best.... Love, love, loved this tour! - What an experience! A must do. Our guide was very knowledgeable and super funny, he took us to places that the locals would hang out, I ate the BEST falafel ever! This tour was jammed packed with eye opening landscape and tourist attractions but we walked the streets like locals. We ate a traditional lunch of chicken and rice in a hidden restaurant, which was included in the cost of the tour.

Very nice and cover all sights - I didn’t know what this tour is going to cover so I also booked a Full-Day Bethlehem, Jericho, and Jordan River Tour on a previous day. It turned this West Bank tour cover all sights of previous day’s tour plus more. It covers West Bank neighborhoods, Ramallah, Palestinian street art, yasser arafat mausoleum besides church of nativity, Jericho and Jordan river. The guides are excellent.

Loved it! One of the best tours ever!! - One of the best tours ever! Go for it!! Palestine is great, so many historical and religious facts happened there like the birth of Jesus and the first ever church in Bethlehem! Also the oldest city in the world Jericho was amazing! They stop to Jordan river as well for some time to get your photos and videos. People are lovely and welcoming! Nice lunch included with healthy food in a beautiful restaurant that makes you feel like home. The tour ends with the graffiti wall which made me sad of how people can live trapped through walls and politics issues! Give Palestinians a chance, they worth it! This tour was so unique and just for a small group. I so recommend it and the Palestinian tour guide was excellent! Loved it!

One Heck of a Tour! - I picked this tour specifically due to how all other tours were all about either religion or white-washed. I wanted to see the other side of the wall for myself. And this tour delivered with aplomb. The guide is a mini-celeb who starred in a Rick Steves documentary. The dinner at the Palestinian guide's house was brilliant! We went everywhere the tour iterinary suggests. It was all well worth the money. My sincere thanks to the tour company for this experience!

Nice start of our trip to... - Nice start of our trip to the Holy Land. A little disquieting with the troubles in Jenin, but our tour guide was very intentional in keeping us safe.

Fascinating day - Very interesting tour. Everyone visiting Israel should consider going to the West Bank for a Palestinian perspective. The guide (Ashvaf?) was very good and the whole day was a real eye opener. We would have loved a bit more free time to explore on our own but everything was well organised and we covered quite a distance, so I guess there was no possibility for self discovery ( maybe instead of taking us to the Christian shop?) Nice bonus was to see Banksy art on the terrible Separation Wall.

Brainwash - I really enjoyed this trip and met with nice people and saw fascinating places. I was however a little shocked just how much anti Israel rhetoric there was and the airbrushing of their entire biblical existence. I understand that our tour guide had a clear hatred for Israel and he is entitled to have his views and express them, however when he said that he was waiting for the day that Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Gaza and the West Bank simultaneously attacked and destroyed Israel I was deeply shocked. I loved the tour but this was not appropriate. A more balanced approach rather than constant and ill informed attacks on Israel was disturbing. A great tour but definitely would sack the guide and Viator need to be more responsible as to whom they employ. If this was meant to be 12 hours of Israel bashing then perhaps advertise it as such although some balanced perspective would be welcomed. Was shocked. I did enjoy sites I visited and people on the group were very nice.

A trip that will make you reflect whilst visiting a new place - If you are interested in hearing first hand the other side of the story and see it for yourself then this tour is for you. Not many people get the opportunity to do it, so why not take the chance? Our local guide was very good, provided different views on the current situation - political / historical / cultural. Ramadan was happening so the morning was a little slower but then picked up so got a bit rushed as we had to see different cities. overall I was very satisfied I took this trip. my advise is to take this tour directly from Jerusalem if you have the time as you gotta change travel vans there.
