Really good and great guide. Recommend!

We actually took this tour from jerusalem but can't find where else to review this day.
This was day 2of our christian tour through bein harim and we really enjoyed this tour. This was far better than the first day we had for sure!!
Our guide was Jano, who was absolutely fabulous, knowledgeable, calm, approachable, warm and had great English. He really made this day great. He was able to give us the information but was not robotic.
The sights were exactly what we wanted. Thank you.

I see the review below mine...we didnt get taken to any shops on this day (luckily)
Great tour, but beware of the "certified shops"

The walking tour was great. But at the end of it, our tour guide took us to a "certified store" and they charged me $100 for a dozen rosaries, and I found out the same rosaries cost $10 at the market. They literally charged me 10 times more. That leaves a bad memory of that tour. My advice is to enjoy the tour and buy nothing. Go later to the market by yourself.
