Most Amazing Introduction to The Old City of Jerusalem
Very passionate about showing guests around Jerusalem, a city rich with culture, heritage, faith and conflict. I am fascinated with the history of the region, with its many cultures and religions, and feel pillaged to meet guests from all over the world. I love exchanging knowledge and experiences with my guests while walking and visiting the sites of the beautiful holy city. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about the tour and Jerusalem.

David is an interesting tour guide!
Despite there were only two of us (others cancelled the tour in that day) he did not cancel and had the tour just for us.
Thanks for him!

Nice guy, but not very enthusiastic. He was quite repetitive. I did get some interesting facts though.
