We used them in Athens 3 times and have had great experiences each time. I can't speak on other cities though

Thank you so much. I don't want to put you to any trouble though. If you do (easily) find information about it, you can post it here of if you prefer, email me at momkap at icloud dot com Thanks again

JHLH821, I'm not familiar with the area. Any suggestion as to the easiest way to get to Ein Hod Artist Village from the port?

Thanks, Markanddonna, for the suggestions as well as the recommendation to avoid Bein Harim as a tour company. Sorry you had less than a good experience with them. We will be in Jerusalem (specifically Ashdod) for an overnight after we leave Haifa. We spent a couple of days there on a previous cruise but plan to return to a few places of interest again in addition to going to the Dead Sea and Masada.

Thank you so much, IgKh, for the suggestions. Great idea, I'll look at your review on the RC Rhapsody of the Seas' section for other ideas too.

Thank you for the recommendations, JKLH821. Sounds like something right up our alley!

Our cruise is originating in Haifa with an overnight and following day (until 10pm) there. This will be our second cruise with an overnight in Haifa so we're fortunate to have previously toured Nazareth, Acre, and other "highlights" in northern Israel so we are now looking for a tour that's kind of off the beaten path. We'll be in Haifa, Sunday, 5/28, so I know the market is closed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jack, I did start a Roll Call for this cruise but because the itinerary has changed (actually before we booked so I had no idea it was originally called “Jerusalem to Venice”) it’s named: “Sirena May 27, 2023 Jerusalem to Valletta”. I hope you’ll join it as it’s been a rather quiet thread thus far.
