Day 1 – old city

The best place to start a tour in Jerusalem will be the Mt of Olives observation which is the most beautiful observation in Israel give us a great view on The Temple Mt, as well as a point to remember the history of Jerusalem. The observation is the best in the morning when the sun is in our back.

Driving down from Mt. of Olives, Crossing Kidron Valley we’ll be able to see some of the tombs in Valley of Jehoshaphat . Parking in Jerusalem is not an easy task but here it become a necessity as we continue our tour from here on foot.

We’ll enter the old city through the Dung Gate. If time permit it is highly recommended to visit Jerusalem archaeological park. Short walk will take us to The Wailing Wall.
