The Jerusalem tour from Tel Aviv guide goes through the three Jerusalem-only options.

What the extra money buys

US$121 against US$134 and US$161. The three Jerusalem and Bethlehem day tours share a core: the Mount of Olives, the Old City and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, then the Church of the Nativity, with a Palestinian guide for Bethlehem. The two Rent-a-Guide | est.1985 tours describe the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock among the Old City sites, where Bein Harim Israel Tours views the Temple Mount esplanade from Mount Scopus; the small-group version adds Mount Zion and keeps the group to no more than 18 passengers. Both Rent-a-Guide | est.1985 tours pick up from centrally located hotels only and send everyone else to the nearest meeting point, and their crossing may include a short unaccompanied walk. The Bein Harim Israel Tours coach can carry more than one tour: a review of 31 December 2025 counted three tours on the same bus at the start of the day.

The dates. In November 2026 the Rent-a-Guide | est.1985 tours had thin calendars: the full day was on sale on one of the four dates checked, the small group on 20 January 2027 but not on 3 December 2026. Bein Harim Israel Tours’s day trip was on sale on all of them except Sunday 29 and Monday 30 November.

Bethlehem as a half day. If you sleep in Jerusalem, the half day from the David Citadel Hotel gives an hour in the Church of the Nativity plus the Milk Grotto and Shepherds’ Field for US$70 to US$75, and leaves the rest of the day for the Old City. The Bethlehem tour from Jerusalem guide has the details.
