“Walking Tour of Tel Aviv”
Melissa switched her personal schedule to accomodate our availability taking this tour on her normal day off. This was much appreciated. She covered pretty much everything we wanted to see in the allotted time. It was a good way to orient us to much of TA and help us plan the rest of our time here. Thank you!!!

Old City Jerusalem photo scavenger hunt
We will do a tour that covers the highlights of the old city of Jerusalem as well as do a photo scavenger hunt. I will make a list of things you are likely to see as we walk around the old city so you can snap some great photos and we will see who found the most from the list at the end. The winner will get a little treat from Israel. This is a family friendly tour.
