This must rank among the best tours I have ever been on. Our guide, Amer, intelligent, passionate and insightful, really brought the reality of injustice in present day Hebron alive for me.
If you want to learn the truth about persecution on the West Bank, and the appalling treatment of Palestinian residents by the Israeli authorities and the Jewish settlers they protect, then this is definitely the trip for you.

===>Hebron (Arabic: al-Ḫalīl; Hebrew: חֶבְרוֹן , Standard Hebrew: Ḥevron, Tiberian: Ḥeḇrôn ISO 259-3: Ḥebron); Ottoman Turkish Halilürrahman) also known as City of the Patriarchs, is a Palestinian city located in the southern West Bank, 30 km (19 mi) south of Jerusalem. Nestled in the Judean Mountains, it lies 930 meters (3,050 ft) above sea level. It is the largest city in the West Bank and home to approximately 250,000 Palestinians, and between 500 and 800 Jewish settlers concentrated in and around the old quarter. The city is most notable for containing the traditional burial site of the biblical Patriarchs and Matriarchs and is therefore considered the second-holiest city in Judaism after Jerusalem. The city is also venerated by Muslims for its association with Abraham and was traditionally viewed as one of the "four holy cities of Islam.

Hebron is a busy hub of West Bank trade, responsible for roughly a third of the area's gross domestic product, largely due to the sale of marble from quarries. It is locally well known for its grapes, figs, limestone, pottery workshops and glassblowing factories, and is the location of the major dairy product manufacturer, al-Junaidi. The old city of Hebron is characterized by narrow, winding streets, flat-roofed stone houses, and old bazaars. The city is home to Hebron University and the Palestine Polytechnic University.

Hebron is also the largest Palestinian governorate with population of 600,364 (2010)
