The tour is really very good, they leave you plenty of time to enjoy the Dead Sea, although it may not seem like it, but it does not give you enough time to enjoy the sunrise by mass or the Ein Geidi reserve. The tour would be much better for a full day than a half day ... A lot of time is lost on the trip from Tel Aviv.

I had a great time visiting the touristic attractions included on the tour. Transportation was comfortable and stick to an itinerary. The staff in the Whatsapp customer care was able to help me arrange to get off the bus in Jerusalem on the way back. Very responsive, kind and helpful. I would highly recommend your services! At the moment I'm working on a YouTube video of my channel for this trip :)
