Muito boa, só faço ressalva para o tempo perdido na loja de suvenir com os preços absurdos. O guia Rafi foi maravilhoso, alegre e conhecedor da história.

My family (4 of us) took this tour from the cruise terminal in Ashdod, we were in port from 6AM until 11PM and had next day in Haifa so were not too worried about missing the ship. Passing Isreali immigration took about 30 min and we left the port on the tour at about 9AM after waiting for a few additional passengers (can't really fault tour guide for this but from what I have heard in past that immigration is occasionally done on Sea Day the day before arriving which would have been a much smoother process). The tour bus driver must've been new because he got lost trying to leave the port (kind of funny) and also had some trouble accessing Bethlehem. Our guide Lior was definitely knowledgeable when asked but I felt he could be encouraged to share a bit more information (especially on the ~1 hr drive up the Jerusalem). We also could have spent a little less time in the gift shop in Bethlehem (not sure why people get caught up in this). Other than that the actual tour parts of the day out were great, we saw all the major sites and it was definitely an eye opening experience for my first time in Isreal.
