The tour was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide, Rami, was gentle, knowledgeable, and incredibly well-educated in history and religion. He brought everything to life and made the experience so meaningful. Yossi, our Nova tour guide, was also exceptional. He was extremely informative, especially when explaining the strategy and what happened inside. It was a very deep and emotional experience, and we learned so much. Everything we did was amazing. From the beginning to the end, Tour Israel took care of every single detail. Tour Israel took care of hotels, transfers, and transportation between the airport. This was truly an unforgettable tour, and I would highly recommend Tour Israel to anyone who wants to experience Israel’s history, people, and stories in a meaningful and personal way. This is a company that truly cares about its guests and goes above and beyond to make the experience special.I wish I could give Tour Israel 20 stars! Truly, truly, truly, this is one of the best companies I have ever worked with. Their professionalism, attention to detail, knowledge, and genuine care made our trip unforgettable.Show more

  when you say within the city, are you referring to Jerusalem? what defines outside the city...how busy is it now with all the Gaza etc goin on, are the groups full?
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written February 2025
  Within city tours are when are a tour of the same city you are staying at like the Jerusalem walking tour or the Tel Aviv walking tours. Despite the situation of the country, we still have tourist coming every day to our tours! Some moght not be full everyday but for the dates you selected, I wouldn't be able to tell you from now how many participants there will be in the groups.

  Traveler•Written February 2025
  no, I am actually looking for a 8-9 complete Israel tour to different cities, not just day trips , do you have anything?
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written February 2025
  All the tours inside the package, start from Jerusalem or Tel Aviv. The packages include many different sites, but at the end of the day, you would always go back to your hotel in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv. Would that be okay? We can only arrange overnight in different cities on private tours.

  Traveler•Written March 2025
