Absolutely Incredible - We were picked up directly from our hotel by Yael. our van was very spacious and comfortable. The best part was our driver and guide. Yael. She was incredible. I felt like we learned so much and we were treated to so many incredible experiences. This tour was literally life-changing. I can’t even describe. The photos don’t even do it justice either. I was grateful for the opportunity and Yael was such an accommodating hostess

Eli @ Viator is Amazing in Israel - What a tremendous tour! We can not say enough wonderful things about our guide Eli Yacob. He arrived early, very energetic and excited to begin our tour! Eli is very knowledgeable with Israel history & current times. He knows the country of Israel very well. We stopped for local food, falafel and it was delicious! I got baptized during this tour & Eli took amazing photos and videos. We had so many beautiful stops on this tour. Eli went above & beyond by answering all of our questions and touring places we had never even thought of or imagined. We even rode a camel. Eli takes great pride in his country and very passionate of his profession. He truly wants visitors to share in his wealth of information of Israel. Eli took us to St George Monastery from a distance, beautiful. When booking this tour we cannot recommend anyone else but Eli. He is such an amazing ambassador for Israel & Viator. Thank you Eli & Viator.

Galilee tour with Erez - My family of 8 had a wonderful tour with our guide Erez. Erez was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. Erez tailored our tour to see and do the things we wanted and had great suggestions based on his experience that made our trip great. Beyond that Erez brought a positive energy and attitude that made the tour fun. Erez read applicable scripture at the locations we visited and took great pictures for us. Erez really seemed to care that my family from children to grandparents had a good time. I would definitely recommend Erez as a guide and the Galilee tour.

Review on Hava Dorany - We went with Hava on this amazing trip. She is a brilliant guide. Extremely informative. Knows just about every single inch of Israel and we learnt alot. Thoroughly impressed with her energy and love for her country. These tours have been the best part of our trip to Israel. Thanks Hava!

Good experience but can improve - We took the tour in Spanish, overall the tour is well organized and the guide beforehand told us about the itinerary. The only bad point was that at the end, we had to go to Tel Aviv and the company arranged our transfer to Jerusalem in a private taxi. Because of this we lost some time. Other than that, the experience was good.

The Jordon River - The highlight of this tour for me, was the Jordon River. The night before the tour my friend asked me to baptize her, and i said yes. The next day while in the Jordon, i asked her if she was ready and she was. So after I baptized her,their were like 4 or 5 female's from brazil wanted me to baptize them, so I did :-) Our tour guide was, simon robson 972 506 564407, REAL FRIENDLY, call him to be your guide Simon was so nice, while walking us to our taxi, this white dog started to walk in traffic. Simon went after the dog, then had my friend take a picture of the dogs tag in order to call the own. This young couple came over to assist, after calling the own, then own was sitting down having dinner and wasnt paying attention to her dog wandering off

Very informing,educative tour with Mrs Dorit - I would highly recommend this tour.Our tour guide Dorit picked us warmly at our pick up area.We were already 30minutes late ,but in this region I would not complain about it.She engaged in lovely conversation explaining the details of the trip.She is very informed and gave us a wide insight of the history,politics,places in detail.She welcomed questions and the tour was well organised.She could even remember our names. I must particularly commend Dorit and the driver,Majid.I was with my 6year old son.They treated him very lovely,Majid gave him a toy to play with which was a great help and he was very impressed. All along the trip they engaged him fondly which made it easy for me as a mother to enjoy the trip. Dorit read us the bible on the places we visited and even asked us whoever wanted to participate in reading.The journey to Nazareth,Tiberius,Sea of Galilee,Caphanaum and the Jordan is a very inspirational journey for those interested in the Bible history and of life of Jesus. She took time to explain extensively drawing from bible excerpts and Archeological discoveries. We concluded with baptism site of Jordan River at Yardenit.It's another highlight visiting River Jordan and the site of baptism of Jesus (maybe not exactly the spot Jesus was baptised) For those wishing to be baptised in the foot steps of Jesus I would highly recomend this trip.Dorit allowed us time to be baptised and helped us around with my son. It's a days journey but worth every minute of it.In case we come back to Israel I would do it again.I would also recommend it to any body visiting Israel.

Dissapointed - First our tour guide was 1/2 hr late. When we got out of the Jordan River we couldn’t find him for 1/2 hour. He did do a good job explaining different parts of the tour. But he took us to a place for fish and ordered for us and it ended up being a lot money for all this food that we couldn’t eat. Then instead of taking us back to Jerusalem he took us to Tel Aviv to “see the ocean” , which we never saw. In Tel Aviv we took another taxi back to the hotel that smelt like smoke. Not worth it. Will probably never use this company again.
