It was amazing. The guides were great and really added to the experience. I will never forget them or the experience. Thank you so much for such a great time. I will always try and travel using these tours.
- Classical Israel Tour Package, 4 Days
I took the Mini Christian Tour Package, 4 Days. The tour is very fruitful and enjoyable. The tour guide named Hezi was super nice, kind, organized and informative. I was very happy with his guidance. Wonderful time learning about the historical site of the Church of Nativity, Jerusalem and Bethlehem in general. Along the way to Nazareth Hezi pointed out important areas of interest, with their biblical significance. At each of the destinations, he gave us abundant insight and Christian context that enabled us to really appreciate the sites we were visiting.
