Worth it!

Our family of 5, including 3 teens, took the Bethlehem/Dead Sae tour. Very informative. Transportation came on time. Larger group all visited Bethlehem together in an A/C Mercedes large van. The guide was very informative and spoke great English. We had our own time to walk to the Church of the Nativity after he was finished with his information. Our group split into those going to the Dead Sea separate from those going to other locations such as Jerico. We had 3 hours at the Dead Sea. Admission included. We had use of locker rooms/showers/lockers. Picnic area and lots of food to order if you prefer. The Dead Sea mud and floating were so fun! Areas at the Sea to rinse off. Take flip-flops! Hot sand! We all had a relaxing and enjoyable time. Highly recommend!
Good but room for improvement

The guides were very good. Only one complaint. Our itinerary said "return to Jerusalem" after Dead Sea. It did not mention that the return to Jerusalem was via Bethlehem going 2 hours out of the way in extremely heavy traffic.
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Thank you for your feedback We appreciate it, the day of your tour was a day during the holidays and there were lots of traffic.
and sorry no it is not possible to go direct from the dead sea to Jerusalem with west bank vehicles.
Also please don't forget the good things you had on the tour also such as the Private Car and Driver to the Dead sea, Free Sandwiches, 4 hours of quality time in Bethlehem, visit to the grotto and waiting 1 hour to see the birth location, more than 3 hours at the dead sea, Free Gifts, Free Water Bottles, and free sweets were offered.
Great, memorable trip.

This trip was low key and well organized. We had a wonderful, memorable time and meet new friends along the way.
Top guide! Top organisation! Some extra treats as well!

Great tour of bethlehem and dead sea

Great tour! Guides and drivers were all very kind, informative and fun. I was wondering where the "I love Bethlehem" sign was, which was listed on the itinerary. A part from that, everything was very organized and memorable. Glad my parents enjoyed, too. One thing to suggest: please inform tourists that muslims accepted Jesus (peace be upon him) as a true messenger of God (a prophet), as many western Christian's are unaware of this fact. It would help educate masses, lessen religious ignorance and prevent unnecessary stares twd fellow muslims on tour.

VIP tour for a small group

, Nov 2019
Because we scheduled our trip to Bethlehem on a Sunday, we benefited from shorter travel time as there was less traffic on the road. Less people booked on that day so there were only 5 of us in the group and we were treated like VIPs! The only downside is we did not get to visit the grotto of the nativity due to religious services being held at the site. We nevertheless got to see other interesting sites like the Milk Grotto, and the Shepherds' Field.
Great tour!

Very good day , pleasantly surprised

The day was quite busy , lots of places to visit in and around Bethlehem . There wasn’t much walking to do as the bus was taking us everywhere . The guides were really good , we were well looked after and most interestingly the guides were from both , Muslim and Christian communities , both extremely knowledgable about the Bible and Christianity. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover that multi religion communities can live together with respect of each other’s religions .
The tour group was then branched out into groups going to other places and our group to the Dead Sea - this was amazing experience ! Make sure you cover yourself with Dead Sea mud before going in the water , it will do a magic for the skin. Floating experience is so unique . Highly recommend the tour !
Day to remember!! Thank you 😊

I am not someone that oftens leaves reviews but I couldn’t resist after such a fantastic day! All the tour guides were friendly, very attentive, knowledgeable and most importantly funny! We had such a brilliant time and really enjoyed the trip from start to finish. Cannot recommend this tour enough to any first timers in Israel. Hope to see you again Elijah tours!
Expertly run tour

I wanted to do egged tour of Bethlehem, Jericho and dead sea bit didn't as it has some terrible reviews about expensive lunch options and being stuck at shops for hours.
This one had great reviews and I think they have learnt from others mistakes.
Good stop at Bethlehem, followed by short stop at shops (with absolutely no pressure to buy), falafel lunch provided to us, then an excellent time in dead sea including access to swimming pools.
Very effectively and efficiently run, highly recommend Elijah tour operators. Floating in the dead sea was pretty crazy.
Fantastic experience

The trip was unexpected informative and fun in one trip. The guide Bo'az is extremely knowledgeable and lively. The history and culture of Bethlehem was shown in a detailed fashion. The connection driver Ziad was perfect and very personable. One of the best tour in the region and DO NOT miss this experience.
2 sites!

Bethlehem and Dead sea tours are basically 2 separate tours, but nicely combined.
Bethlehem is very close to Jerusalem but in the Palestinian territory, so we had that experience as well.
Boaz was excellent guide who showed all places in Betlethem and surrounding area with enthusiasm .
After exploring places we were invited in local family house to eat falafel, which was another great experience.
After good refreshment we went to Dead sea.
It's unique place on Earth . Must see it when around.
Overall nice day!

If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria.
