It was my dream to see Israel. And thanks to you it came true. The itinerary is well-thought-out. The guide knows the answer to almost all questions you can think of. Don’t think it is possible to visit more interesting places in 4 days. Hope next time to see a lot more, but pretty sure that will do it with you.

7 Day Classical Tour was incredible. Every day was organized from beginning to end. Each day we had a different tour guide and they were all informative, warm, and accommodating. Everywhere we went they were well acquainted with their surroundings and the people there. The hotels met our expectations and the food was always great! Many thanks to all our tour guides, particularly Avi and Itamar.

This tour, planned at the last minute for us, far surpassed our expectations. We got to see almost every site we had hoped to see, and our tour guide Michael was amazing - his knowledge and experience made the entire tour fun and educational at the same time. I would totally recommend this tour to anyone who has never been to Israel & Jordan or who wants to learn about the most important cities and places in the country.

I traveled with my 12-year-old daughter. The agency made our trip as comfortable as possible. They were always responsive to any questions, feedback, or inquiries; any slight problems we were facing, the agency made sure to address them immediately. The tour guides and drivers in Egypt, Jordan & Israel were like family - prompt, reliable, and thoughtful. We felt safe under their watch. They went above and beyond their call of duty to make sure we were well taken care of. They didn't look at their watches or their designated duties and squabble with our little requests.

The trip was extremely well organized yet took advantage of the spontaneous opportunity. George, the lead resource, is extremely well informed and has enormous energy to deliver a firehose of information. The accommodations, travel arrangements, vehicles, and food were excellent without being over the top ostentatious. The prime purpose other than sightseeing in these countries in the extraordinary locations that are available to us is gaining a deeper understanding of the background to the biblical narrative. This was accomplished by viewing the geography, and location-specific sights with George's instructions. Couldn't ask for more

Our Best of Egypt, Jordan and Israel tour is an amazing, lifetime experience. Egypt was beyond awesome. This tour far exceeded all our expectations and was thoroughly enjoyable in every aspect. There were absolutely no hitches or setbacks for the entire duration of the tour starting in Cairo and ending in Tel Aviv. It was smooth sailing from beginning to end. Representatives from the company promptly met us on arrival and assisted us all the way through from acquiring our visas to welcoming us to the hotel and briefing us accordingly. Likewise, similar courtesies were also extended to us through Jordan and Israel by their resident tour companies. All internal flight arrangements were also expertly handled. The 4 day Nile River cruise on the Sonesta Star Goddess was awe-inspiring. Similarly thanks to those staff who were excellent in leading us through Jerusalem and Bethlehem.
