Our pre-booked private tour at $275 for 4 hours had to cancel at the last minute. Instead we joined one of the free tours (tipping at the end). We had a small group, our guide was qualified, and it only cost us $40 in tips (and we were easily the biggest tippers).

The City of David was delightful! The harp music that you hear resonating throughout most of the city, is delightful and gives such a nice atmosphere.

The visitor's center is part of the Citadel and included in the admission price. It had some nice exhibits, but it is not the main attraction.

There are some incredible things to see here, and they are definitely worth it. Please be aware, however, that many archeological theories about this place are unconfirmed and even controversial, but your tour guide will probably not tell you this. Also be aware that the site is controlled by individuals with a particular agenda political agenda.
