Irish Silverstreak Posted September 5, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted September 5, 2013 We are doing the Jerusalem and Betlehem tour it is $99 US and is the same tour as Thomson for £94 so a bit of a saving also a smaller group My sister used this company and recommended them to me.We want to do this tour on Wed 19th that way there is no danger of missing the ship as it is in Ashdod overnight. If you are interested please contact and book your spot.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would make the meeting earlier on the sea day as it is normally formal night that day and starts with "Meeting the Captain and his Staff" at about 5.30pm before early sitting dinner at 6.30pm.

Irish Silverstreak Posted September 8, 2013 Author #20 Share Posted September 8, 2013 On foot of that previous post how about 4 pm that day same place . Thanks for the contribution .and advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeCountyMan Posted September 9, 2013 #21 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I'm sure I read somewhere hereabouts that Thomson are doing 2 days in Ashdod on some re-scheduled cruise itineraries. If Masada is offered as a tour I would thoroughly recommend it. Having watched the TV mini series with Peter O'Toole and Anthony Quayle the visit was really worthwhile.

3globetrotter3 Posted September 10, 2013 #25 Share Posted September 10, 2013 have a great cruise guys:cool: let us know all about the jerusalem tour (we may consider booking this company for our cruise in november) Taxis are also available at the port. Agree a price beforehand. They driver will take you any where you want to go. We went to Jerusalem where he asked us if we wanted him to stay with us or would we prefer to look around on our own. We chose to wander around on our own and agreed a place to meet three hours later. We then went to the Dead Sea where he gave us as much time as we wished. The taxi then brought us right back to the ship. Not all taxis companies are allowed in port. We paid £50 pp four sharing which was well worth it for a lovely day at our own pace.
