Jerusalem Free Tour
| The 2-hour tour meets daily at the entrance to the Old City at the plaza outside the Jaffa Gate where you will meet your Abraham Tours guide. This tour is a great way to get your bearings in the city and will give guests an overview of the most important sites Jerusalem has to offer. We will have stunning views of the Western Wall, the Dome of the Rock, Al-Aqsa Mosque, and the Church of the Holy Sepulcre, as well as an overview of the four quarters of the city – the Jewish, Christian, Muslim, and Armenian Quarters.
How does our tour work? We believe that Jerusalem should be accessible for any person at any budget and our tips-based model guarantees that your tour will be entertaining, fun, and informative. Our team of Abraham Tours’ guides are licensed by the Israel Ministry of Tourism and are locals to give you the best tips for spending your time in Jerusalem – even after the Free Tour ends! |
