Meet the Ultra-Orthodox Jews Tour

The Meet the Ultra-Orthodox Jews Tour offers a rare opportunity to gain meaningful insight into the rich religious and cultural life of Jerusalem’s Ultra-Orthodox Jewish community, also known as Haredim. This immersive experience takes you into a traditional neighborhood that is rarely visited by tourists, allowing you to move beyond surface impressions and encounter the community from within.

Led by a member of the local Ultra-Orthodox community, the tour includes a guided walk through the neighborhood’s streets, where your guide will explain key religious symbols, customs, and daily practices.

The tour encourages open dialogue and questions, creating space for honest conversation about family life, marriage, the role of women, education, media, charity, kosher practices, technology, Shabbat and holidays, and the community’s place within modern Israeli society. Through these discussions, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the values, challenges, and perspectives that shape Ultra-Orthodox life in Jerusalem.
