Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by ferg on Sept 14, 2017 9:32:01 GMT 1, Yet another great trip and it was made even better to see some unexpected faces ferg , as always it was a pleasure and it was also a pleasure to funally meet Carl Cashman as well as a few others. Eveything is 1 per person and as the whole point is to draw people to the region I suggest you get yourselves a flight and have the experience - you will come away with a better understanding of the situation, the way people are forced to live, you'll get to see some awesome art and at the end will be able to come home with a couple of great souvenirs. I'll never forget the whole experience and I'm sure I'll be back pretty soon for my third trip Hi Lee yes spot on , I had a blinder your great company mate and thanks for showing me the ropes which really helped me out in my limited time. I have been enriched by the experience and seeing what's happening out there has certainly raised my awareness to what's going on. The trip around the camp made me realise how lucky I am .Great to meet Carl . Banksy lovers don't miss this. Ferg

Ah man you guys are getting me excited. Will be there Saturday night! I've booked in a tour as well.
Any tips around food? I love middle eastern cuisine but didn't know if there were options close by or if the hotel does food at all?

Ala really is a top guy - we first met him in March and listed his details in the original Walled Off thread - since then he has met loads of the guys in here and was even helping out Lush the other week
He is highly recommended and is also in IG

I've actually been to Bethlehem before, as I used to go to Israel for work quite a bit and have explored a lot of (both) countries. Do you think it's worth booking in with Alaa as well as the tour - or perhaps instead of the Walled Off tour?

You should really take The Walled off Hotel official tours no matter what else you are doing as they are specifically educational and clearly arranged by Banksy to educate visitors to the actual real political situation and living conditions for the people of Palestine under Israeli control...
They are part of your room price and not to be missed !

They are part of your room price and not to be missed ! The tours are not part of the room price, they need to be paid separately. Either that or I was taken for the price of 8 tours when we were over Before Murrke pipes up, I'm sure this'll be Banksys fault too.

Either that or I was taken for the price of 8 tours when we were over Before Murrke pipes up, I'm sure this'll be Banksys fault too. Apologies I stand corrected ! That must have changed since I went then. As follows it seems and wasn't separated out when i was there i'm pretty certain :
TOURS $30.00 Tour: Walking Tour operated by locals. About: The Separation Wall and Aida Refugee Camp Schedule: Tours Run twice daily at 10am & 5pm Due to the heat, the afternoon start time varies as the seasons change $30 per person
We also highly recommend taking the Green Olive Tour of 'Greater Jerusalem' where Israeli guides educate you on the political and religious landscape. Please click here
Anyway - they are all very educational and especially the Green Olive tour as it's not biased and tells the truth about the situation and even by Israeli's which was a pleasant surprise !

I recall that the guide on the Green Olive tour did say that originally the tours were going to be included in the room rate but that idea was dropped before bookings went live.

I think you might need a break from the Internet if a forum pushes you to comments like that.

Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by Deleted on Sept 14, 2017 23:42:24 GMT 1, I'm am hoping to fund a trip to see the hotel. I will bring multiple prints, fobs, sculptures home and sell them to you at 2.5 times the original cost, which would be significantly less than you would be paying in terms of time, airfare, and housing. If you are interested, please let me know and I will compile a list of probable suitors. P.S. 2.5 times cost is a UAA discount, as I typically charge 3 times cost in the open market. But since we are family.... "Hoping to fund?" Flipping 101: you need to brag how rich you are from flipping, not how poor you are. Comeback when you've got game.

If you mention palestine or the west bank theres a good chance youl be questioned for hours and potentially miss you flight.
