1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
Seeing the places you have only read about, or seen on film. The authenticity of antiquity.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
If you wish to enter the Dead Sea, water shoes or flip flops or similar are not optional; they are mandatory. The seabed is covered with salt crystals that are very sharp and very, very painful for bare feet. Some of our group turned back quickly. I've been on the Jordanian side of the Dead Sea, which is rocky and uncomfortable; the spot we entered the water requires water shoes or flip flops or similar.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
At the kibbutz, we interacted with local people. Elsewhere, we had rather limited contact with locals. I can't comment on environment or conservation.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
It's a wonderful experience to experience bucket list sites. Be prepared for crowds.Holiday Reviews
