a supporting map to assist spacial awareness would be helpful- at times it seemed we were crisss-crossing the desert; also some historical factual notes to assist (altho I did some apres trip desk research to supplement)...the guide in this instance could have been more dispassionate so not to infuse with his own bias which was quite evident. overall despite a confused presentation of the political, historical, and geographical it was worthwhile, but with specific focus these tours could be more meaningful..

The whole tour was fascinating, and we were lucky with timing so didn't have to queue at the Church of the Nativity. Tamar is very knowledgable and informative as a guide. I found the separation wall to be particularly emotional. I'd recommend this tour to anyone.

Kamal, our fantastic guide, gave us an extraordinarily interesting journey about the history, religion and politics of the West Bank. In addition, he allowed us to know a little of his life and his family with a delicious lunch at his home. I value his equanimous view and encyclopedic knowledge shared with kindness and interest. Thank you very much!
