A terrific tour, no mucking about; Ashraf knows his stuff and ensures you get into the right places to get through lines quickly. Other tour guides defer to Ashraf; you’ll see what I mean when you visit the church if the nativity. Best value for money.

Bellissimo tour alla scoperta di Betlemme ma sopratutto la chiesa della Natività. La maggior parte del tour si svolge alla chiesa, e una piccola parte dedicata alla città. La guida era molto preparata e sapeva intrattenere il gruppo gestendo al meglio le esigenze di tutti.

I really enjoyed the tour. Good guide with a wide knowledge. A lot of valuable and interesting information - both about main attractions in Betlehem, as well as some socio-political context. The only one thing was missing, was a bit more free time in the city. A 30 minutes longer free time and it would be perfect.
