This was was FANTASTIC! Our guide was wonderful and engaging! It’s a perfect amount of adventure mixed with history! I was nervous about taking my children to other tours that would would be based on history alone. This was just perfect.

The tour guide Aviva was amazing. She explained everything about Israel and guided us safely throughout the day. We love you Aviva 🙂🙏☺️🙏

Yoav is excellent! He told us everything, he was funny and was cared about us! Keep the good job Yoav! Your friends from Greece!

Long day but we’ll worth it as I learnt so much about the history of Israel and the Jewish people

Although it was a but rushed, overall it was a good way to see a lot in a short period.
