A Journey Through Time
to The Depths of Jerusalem's History






The Great Stone Route
The Original Western Wall Tunnels Tour
The Western Wall of the Temple Mount (also known as the Kotel) is one of the most magnificent and significant remnants in Jerusalem from the days of the Second Temple, destroyed approximately 2,000 years ago.
The Western Wall stretches along almost half a kilometer, but today, the part exposed to all at the Western Wall Plaza is a mere 70 meters of it. This tour allows visitors to reach the segments of the Wall hidden from view, and to touch the original and special stones that tell the story of the Jewish nation. Visitors to the Western Wall Tunnels walk through ancient and fascinating spaces under the Old City with exquisite archeological findings, such as large stone vaults and arches, cisterns, an ancient water aqueduct trench that ends at the Strouthion Pool and more.
This tour includes innovative virtual models. It is considered an international attraction and is one of the must-see sites in the city of Jerusalem.
