A holy city for the three monotheistic religions, the most sensitive city in the world, come and discover my city, Jerusalem.
I will show you the old walled city where, over 1 square kilometer, all the conflicts and all the harmonies are found.

According to Judaism, here the universe was created and god stopped Abraham before killing his son. Here the two Jewish temples stood and the King David chose to place his capital. Here King Hezekiah fought the Assyrians and here King Herod collaborate with the Romans.

According to Christianity, here Jesus was judged and crucified, came back to life and ascend to the sky. Here the Crusaders came.

According to Islam, here Mohamed met God. Here Muslim empires rule for 1200 years.

Here you will find Jews and Arabs, Muslims and Christians: Armenians, Ethiopians, Roman Catholics, Orthodox, Copts etc.

And I did not even begin to explain this city. The most complicated but the most fascinating in the world!

Together we will visit the important places of the old city:

- the Jafa Gate,
- the citadel of the Tower of David,
- the Holy Sepulcher,
- the Christian, Armenian, Muslim and Jewish quarters,
- the archaeological sites and the Western Wall.

The itinerary is flexible, for any changes please let me know.

  • star rating  I thought I knew Jerusalem, and then I took a tour with Nissim. - Enthusiastic and knowledgeable with great story telling. I visited Jerusalem numerous time before, but never before understood its geography and history like I do after a delightful tour with Nissim.
