Port of Ashdod
View on Google MapsOur tour guide was great. Dead sea was exciting. Masada was fantastic! Amazing how history unfolded for these poor Jews back in the day.
Dima is a funny guy with a lot of knowledge about the area. He wouldn't leave anyone behind. Very good experience. I recommend this excursion and it was way cheaper compared to the cruise excursions
The trip was super well arranged. We did this trip from our cruise terminal. Here the bus was waiting and waited very neatly until the last Cruise Customer was present. Because of this we left a bit later but is therefore reliable for booking this excursion. There was also contact in advance via the whats app to Let them know they're expecting us. So direct contact was possible, if necessary on the day of departure of the excursion. We had Eli as a guide, and did a great job. Friendly and competent guide who could tell nicely. After he knew it was our son's birthday, he started singing to him and made a connection with him every time during the trip. This made him feel special this day. The excursion was tough. The 4 stars are therefore because of the temperature. It was so hot/hot, 45 degrees, that visiting the Moshad and sweat was a trip up, and floating in the dead sea was a cooking momemt. There was nothing the organization could do about this, of course. But because of this it is spicy and you have to make a conscious choice whether you book this trip above 40 degrees. Incidentally, it is doable, but be well prepared. Rub and drink well with water and clothing against heat and footwear to walk on the sand and in the sea. By the way, you're in a great air conditioning bus. So the cooling in between is very welcome.

Great excursion from the cruise port. Michael the guide was waiting for us on arrival and was very knowledgeable and professional while presenting the history of the Dead Sea and Masada National park. Highly recommended!
We had a great time at Masada and the Dead Sea. Benjamin was a great tour guy. The views were amazing. Loved everything about this tour. Benjamin was very knowledgeable, answered our question, and was very entertaining. Would definitely recommend.
The Dead Sea is a must do in Israel. Masada is rich in history but be prepared for a hike in the heat. Our guide and driver were amazing. We were an hour late due to ship and immigration issues but they waited for us. On the way back to our stop they took us the back way so we could get a different view. Highly recommend!!
Had a great experience with ziv had so much fun . It is highly recommended to do . Will have great memories from today .
We had looked forward to this particular tour forever but try as we might, it just wasn’t to be. Freak thunderstorms near Jerusalem caused flooding. Some of the roads were washout and there were sink holes reported. Our wonderful, knowledgeable guide, Eli Yaal, tried numerous times and ways to get us there. We made it as far as 6 miles away from the Dead Sea on our way to Masada. We could see the Dead Sea but that was as close as we were going to get. The police turned everyone around so Eli took us to Mamshit. It was an amazing archeological site and he was very knowledgeable about it. It was a super interesting tour there. Eli took us Be’er Sheera for lunch and a city walking tour. 99.9 percent of us loved the tour and Eli and we all totally understood why we couldn’t get to Masada or the Dead Sea. We did, unfortunately, have one woman who threw a fit from the moment she found out we couldn’t get there. She almost caused an altercation on the bus returning back to the shuttle to the ship. It is sad when people expect the unattainable. Eli handles everything professionally and the majority of us appreciated his efforts. He is well worth touring with again! Good job, Eli!
Our trip was cancelled due to being in a war zone!! We have been unable to communicate with anyone from Tripadvisor about our cancelled trip and a refund!!
My companion and I were delayed (with the rest of the passengers) and this tour left without us, despite several messages letting them know that there were issues with our ship passing through customs. Ashdod port is not a hospitable or interesting place on its own, and so being stuck here without an agenda or goal is pointless. Frustrated, saddened and angry that this tour vendor left us high and dry and never responded to our communications. Viator was equally apathetic to our issues and could not provide us with an accurate phone number for the vendor. So dissatisfied.
