This full day, self-guided, small group tour to Masada, Ein Gedi and the Dead Sea will take you from Tel Aviv to the top sights in the Judean Desert. With a hike around an ancient fortress, time to relax and float in the Dead Sea, and a visit to desert oasis, you won't be disappointed.

The guide was excellent and the views were breathtaking. I took many photos! The transitions between excursions was just right!

This was a great trip even though it started out rainy. The operator was friendly open and candid. Because of the rain he shortened our trip to Ein Gedi, giving us enough time to see the waterfall but not slip or fall exploring further. Instead he took us to the site of an ancient synagogue, where we saw marvelous mosaics and a view of Masada from its base, and a date farm.
He also showed us how the dead sea is evaporating and as its shores recide there are sink holes and destruction.

We did this tour from Jerusalem. It was great. Guide was excellent. Spent plenty of time at Masada. Ein Gedi had paths closed due to rock falls, but our tickets were discounted and we were able to go to the waterfall. Abrahams supplied towels for us at the Dead Sea and we had plenty of time to float and enjoy the mud.

Dropped off in Jerusalem outside the Abraham Hostel and had to wait in the cold and rain over an hour for a bus back to Tel Aviv. Really poor.

The best tour ever made, thanks to our professional driver Anan. The places are wonderful, I highly suggest to visit them especially Masada Fortress. Anan did his best to make our experience more enjoyable. He explained a lot of things, even the tour description said that we couldn't expect a guide.
Thanks Anan and thanks Abrahams Tour!

Great tour, everything was perfect and on time.
It was a great surprise because the tour on the 27.10.22 with Jonathan was completely guided by him! It was amazing, he guided us so good and told us a lot of interesting historical and cultural facts.
I hope that in the future this tour will be always guided, it adds a lot to the experience especially in Masada and in En Gedi !

The main reason we took this tour and woke up at 1:30 am to do so, was so we could climb Masada before it got light and to see the sunrise from the top of the mountain. Unfortunately though, when we finally arrived at Masada (in the dark) we were made to wait in line for over an hour while ONE PERSON worked the ticket booth and sold tickets (one by one) to the hundreds of people wanting to hike the path up the mountain. As we waited in the line, we watched the sunrise and ended up having to climb the mountain as the sun rose. In the ever rising heat. Given my husband and I are in our 50's, we made it up in 50 minutes, spent 10 minutes taking pictures with our adult kids who made it up faster, and then had to race back down so as not to miss the bus as the tour guide said the bus would leave if people were not back. Climbing down is no easy thing either and I actually fell because I was rushing so much. I was fine but honestly have zero understanding why I paid for a tour that I still ended up having to wait in line for tickets for. Basically this "tour" for all the locations it goes to (Ein Gedi and Dead Sea also) is really just a bus ride. There is zero value otherwise other than a nice cool bus and the convenience of it going to all three places.

Great tour for travellers who want to feel independet. There is a guide in the bus, who tells you all important info. But you are on your own when roaming each of the sites. Your pace, your way. However our guide Kfir was also very helpful and offered extra background for anybody curious. Highly recommended as you can see so much in one day and still don't feel like herd of sheep like with other tour operators.
