5Fantastic tour guide Sharif !
We had a fantastic tour to Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee with our guide, Sharif. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much interesting history and information throughout the day, while keeping the tour engaging and enjoyable. The tour was very well organised and offered great value for money. We saw some amazing places and came away with a much deeper appreciation and understanding of the history and significance of the area. Sharif was a wonderful guide and we would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Israel!
5Great guided trip with Doron!
Fantastic guide! Doron made our trip very interesting. He will share information you will not find in any books or on Google. That made visiting these places extra interesting.
5From Phoenix to Jerusalem
The experience of seeing the places where the Lord Jesus had walked or lived was amazing. Our guide is very helpful and courteous. and provided with great information about the places we visited.
5Great tour option before a late night flight home
Great tour by a knowledgeable guide and a good driver. The mix of 8 guests were chauffeured in a comfortable, luxury Mercedes Sprinter van. The tour did not require more than a kilometer of walking per destination, which I appreciated, due to an unexpected injury on my trip. The sites were great, although the Jordan River segment was a slight disappointment, because the area was converted into a canoe an kayak rental spot. I had a 11:30 pm flight out of TLV, so I took this tour, betting that it would be back in plenty of time. It paid off. Not only was Rami accommodating by allowing me to lug my suitcase, he also helped me find restaurants that would be open during the Rosh Hashanah holiday.
1SCAM: DO NOT BOOK anything with tourist Israel!!!!
I booked two detours with this company and both times were a disaster! First of all, they don’t actually operate towards themselves they hire third-party guides and then don’t give you any way to communicate or contact with them. BOTH DAYS I was at the meeting point, which was an incredibly huge building complex with vague instructions , and there was no guide anywhere to be found. After looking and looking and looking, BOTH TIMES, I tried contacting the number on the tour and both times it takes him a very long time to respond and they are absolutely no help. They refuse to book you for another day or give you any kind of refund despite horrible customer service. I have taken tours with countless companies all around the world, and this one is by far one of the worst if not THE worst. They are not accommodating or helpful to their guests, and it made a very miserable experience TWICE.

About Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv is Israel's Mediterranean city of white Bauhaus buildings, long beaches, street markets and a café-lined seafront beside ancient Jaffa.
Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 on sand dunes north of the old port of Jaffa and grew quickly into a city of modernist apartment blocks. Its White City, a large collection of Bauhaus and International Style buildings, is listed by UNESCO. Rothschild Boulevard is lined with these buildings and shaded by trees, and Independence Hall, where the state was declared in 1948, stands on it.
Top-ranked sights in Tel Aviv: Caesarea, Neve Tzedek (Neve Tsedek).
