My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. We were able to see everything that we wanted to without feeling rushed. Our guide, Gabi, was knowledgeable and pleasant. For a day trip that touches on the most essential sites I highly recommend it!

This tour is a great way to see the sites connected with Jesus’ youth and ministry. The Sea of Galilee and Jordan River are beautiful. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and added the Synagogue Church to our Nazareth tour at our request. They took us to a restaurant that served locally caught St. Peter’s fish (warning: it comes eyes and all).

Everything about this guide was exceptional. His English, his knowledge, the way he described and explained biblical sites, his sense of humor, his walking pace. He talked the right amount, kept us interested with injections of trivia such as how cities got their name.
I'm serious, my husband and I travel a lot - NEVER have encountered a guide this good.
Constructive criticism: Mahesh needs to tell the exact hour and minute for group to meet - not just say for example, will meet back at the bus in 45 minutes.
Also tourist Restaurant was a poor choice for a small group.

The sights are the what they are, you can’t change them. What is most important to me is the guides knowledge and personality in escorting you to the various sights. We signed up for the english speaking tour.. The guide never introduced herself, her badge just had her last name,(started with a K) but although she was knowledgeable with the destination it was not an enjoyable day. SHe had a very strong Hebrew accent. As you were trying to understand her in English picking up certain words,, she quickly switched to Spanish without even a pause ! Just when you were catching a few things it didn't make sense again! She was also very rude. She told us quickly to keep up with her and if not to find your own way back to Tel-Aviv!!!! We had a woman using a cane, and a few others who had a hard time keeping up with her in the crowds. When a few people asked her to slow down, she just said she wasn’t rushing and continued to argue with everyone. The destinations of Galilee and Jordan River were very touristy (you can buy a robe and be dipped in, herded like cattle). Overall I gave it a two because she did seem to know the destination and the sights in Nazareth were worth the trip.

Guide Jossi was energetic and very knowledgeable on this tour of the Gallilee. Saw a lot of places like Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee. Not to be missed.

Wednesday I went on a "small" tour to The Galilee. It was actually the same size as my other tours were.
The guide was so fluent in both Spanish and English, but when there were only three English speakers to start with, and then the other two left, I felt quite isolated. At lunch I had no one to speak to, even though we tried. I think that could have been arranged differently.
The tour was very informative and good, however, and I learned a lot.
Thank you.

We thoroughly enjoyed this small group tour and felt it was the highlight of our holiday in Israel. The guide, Ossi, was very kind, knowledgeable and engaging. The company was efficient and the time spent at each location was ideal. A particular highlight for us was the St. Peter's fish meal overlooking the beautiful Sea of Galilee.
The only criticism was that the journey back to Tel Aviv clashed with rush hour so it took a very long time.
Overall a great experience and some lovely memories made.

Sites: The sites that we saw during this tour were amazing. I did not feel too rushed, I was able to see everything that I wanted to see. The sites were breathtaking. Tour Guide: However, the guide himself wasn't very approachable. He was knowledgable, but was not open for questions or conversation. In fact, when I asked him a question, he said he would not answer it because he was repeating things 3x, so I should just wait for him to mention the topic again later. Also, his English was difficult to understand. This became problematic - when I couldn't understand what he said, he wouldn't repeat it. Also, when we stopped at the sites he didn't give an overview of what we would see there. He just started talking about one thing at a time. An overview before each site would have been nice. -- At one point, we did meet another guide, Molly, and she really would have been a great tour guide. I wish we would have had her. She was nice, approachable, and easy to understand. Lunch: We were told that there would be a nice lunch in the middle of the day where the participants would be able to try fish from the Sea of Galilee. However, we were brought to a Shawarma shack. We had only 2 options to choose from: Shawarma or Falafel. The place charged $10 per person for the shawarma and a drink, and the food was not good. I think maybe the guide had a personal incentive for taking us here. Overall, this was a big disappointment. When we were in other cities and mentioned that we did this tour, people asked us how the fish was and we unfortunately had to say that we were not able to try it...Bus: The bus we were on was very comfortable. It had AC, but the windows didn't open. Organization: The trip was well organized. Meeting times were clearly communicated and followed throughout the tour.

Guide was also driving, knowlegeable but insensitive and brash at times, inpatient at times, organization at the departure point was poor

It was an amazing experience. I didn’t know we would have to switch car/tour guide because of religious issues. We felt very safe and enjoyed every second of our visit.
