We did the 'Introduction to Palestine: 4 Day Adventure' with Green Olive Tours.
Highly recommend this company and their tours. Our package included taking part in some of their one-day tour groups, so we saw a wide variety of places and activities offered by them, and at every stage Green Olive made it worth our time and money.
The real thing to commend are the guides, all super professional, informed, friendly and funny. Never once felt we were being rushed, often including some short detours if something caught our eye, and self-direction in terms of what shops we wanted to stop in or places to eat lunch. Nothing was too much trouble, and we were well informed all the way. If safety is a concern for you, I would also say we felt completely safe the whole time.
We stayed in a family home in Palestine as part of the package, and this too was very welcoming and comfortable.
This is a political tour, so do expect to find out in depth about the situation in Palestine from a Palestinian perspective. It may be challenging and at times include upsetting information, but that is the reality and Green Olive do not shy away from that. If you're looking to find out more about Israel/Palestine, its history, society, politics and people, then we would highly recommend!
