Important message from the supplier
I work everyday, but I have many bookings, especially during the high season, so I may not always be available. City tours can be done everyday.
Regarding Jewish tours, the Jewish Museum and the Synagogue are closed during the weekends, so it is better to go on a Jewish tour on a week day.
Art tours generally start at 11 am or 12 as Museums and galleries open late. Most of the art museums are closed on Mondays.
