  • When visiting Jerusalem, you will surely be approached by numerous taxi drivers offering to drive you to Bethlehem. One driver pulled over on a busy street to solicit us. After we said no, he backed up and kept making offers to us for about 50 meters. If you do hire a driver to take you to Bethlehem, make sure that he is not going to smuggle anything into or out of the Palestinian territory. Drivers figure that they will have less scrutiny at the security check-point if they are transporting tourists. They can also pass the blame onto you, saying that the contraband is yours.

    If you are driving to Jerusalem area from the center of Israel (Route no.1) don't drive too fast - the road can be tricky. Also - if it is winter it can be foggy and slippery. While returning from En Kerem i saw 2 car accidents.

    V.T.'ers. You all know the score. Taxi Drivers. Sorry to rattle on about these, but they really are a pain in the butt, and we should all group together and feed into local tourist authorities and let them know that as taxi drivers come into so much contact with us they can taint our view of a country. So sort the buggers out ! If in Old Jerusalem take a short walk AWAY from the Gates to ANY decent hotel, and catch a cab from the lobby using the help of a doorman. These ex-army uniformed real men are well versed at being abusive in all the world's most used religious curses. Alternatively, like me (I'm 6'5" though) show the offending cabbie a small screwdriver and politely suggest you undertake an instant repair on his "broken today" meter in exchange for a free trip........ or recommend a surgical operation that permanently attaches it to one of his body parts.
