The travel is early, no problem is not near from Tel Aviv, as expected that time. But the visitors are usually in hotels and they don’t serve the breakfast so early. I pass until 2 o’clock without eating nothing, because in te moment that we stoped to take a coffee, and the place that the guide stoped didn’t have anything to eat, of course we didn’t know the places there ro take things to eat. So I just have something to eat at lunch that was so late.

We spent a lot of time on the bus, there was no specific time for a meal and people bought coffee and food during the trip. Finally we lost the 1.5g that was intended for swimming in the Dead Sea: / as we got there at the end, we had only 30min. People!! Make sandwiches for yourself .... We did it but the others whined and we ran instead of sightseeing

It is unacceptable for guides to show greater interest in what tourists will shop than what they will see. Also in Jerusalem instead of going to worship Christ they go for 1.5 hours to eat to get money for the guide.
