Otherwise, bus 21 departs from just outside Damascus Gate, if you are a foreigner and white, you are not gonna get hassled at the checkpoints. As for security, I dont know exactly what you are worried about???

Be aware that Green Olive Tours is a company that provides tours presenting a very distinctive political POV. they make no attempt to be neutral and do everything to push their version of the truth. The "amazing insight" is carefully selected to show you what they want you to see, as is the "eye opening view" presented of Hebron.
