Review the Masada sunrise, Ein Gedi, and Dead Sea tour from Tel Aviv, with hike details, costs, timing, tips, and honest drawbacks.

“It was nice, Noya was our guide, she was both knowledgeable and very funny. We spent a cool day together and the hike up Masada was very nice, it took only around 45 minutes. The oasis was nice too, the dead sea was also an interesting experience even though the time was very short - we only had one hour to stay there.”

Climb Masada at sunrise, hike Ein Gedi, and float in the Dead Sea on a 10-hour tour from Jerusalem. Practical tips, costs, and honest advice.

“The hike was great and wanted to spend more time in Masada. Because some of Ein Gedi is closed we spent 2.5 hours at the dead sea which was too much time. The trip would have been perfect if more time were given to Masada than swimming.”

“The trip was good, but some people came to bus too late so we had not so much time at the beach (dead sea). The time allowed in Ein Gedi could have been more. We only managed to get to the waterfall even though there are many other places to visit.”

“It is the very best time to climb the Massada rock. The view was breathtaking beautiful. The time for Ein Gedi was a little short, might be longer. Beach an bath in the Dead See was wonderful. But also this was a little short. Some time to relax and drink something will be nice.”

Review of the Masada sunrise, Ein Gedi, and Dead Sea tour from Jerusalem, with costs, hiking advice, safety changes, and booking tips.

“Superb excursion. Wake up (very early), but the ascent of Masada with the gradual rising of the sun was worth it. On the other hand, I would like to point out that the hike requires a certain physical fitness because at 5 a.m. it was already 30° and there is a certain difference in altitude to the summit. At the top of Masada we had a very interesting guided tour of the ancient fortress. After coming back down we did not go to Ein Gedi, as initially planned, for security reasons, but the new program was just as good: walking and swimming in an oasis, then swimming in the Dead…”
