We visited both the northern and southern baptismal sites that Israel has. The southern site near Bethany is also well catered for with facilities towels and changing areas which are clean : unlike the water of the Jordan which seems to be even more foul as it travels. I didn't even want to stick my foot in it is looked so dirty.

A driver came and picked me up and delivered me to the Baptism Site from the hotel. I then got on a bus with many others for a group tour led by the Baptismal site commission. The driver had to verify with Zaid Tours that the price included admission to the site, which was very expensive. The tour was fun and interesting, but is incorrectly advertised for a ride to the site and the admission ticket. Better to arrange a private tour if that is what you are looking for, of which I saw several during my group tour with the crowd.
Zaid Tours concern with my experience, and their helpful communications have influenced my overall rating of this tour. Zaid Tours has contacted me and offered a partial refund because of the confusion in the tour being advertised as a "private" tour. Their company appears to want to make things right. They are in the process or correcting the tour description so that it will not cause confusion with future travelers.
