Best Tour Ever

Lorraine_S, Aug 2023

This is one of the best tours ever. Avi is a fantastic guide. He was prompt picking us up at Ashdod cruise port (he also can pick up from Haifa cruise port. His van was clean and air conditioned. Not only is he very personable, his knowledge of Bethlehem and Jerusalem far exceeded our expectations. He lead the way and took his time in explaining the history that happened so long ago. Due to some mobility issues that I have, Avi was always considering the best way for me to get around. He also brought us to a wonderful restaurant for lunch, where we enjoyed traditional Israeli food. I highly recommend taking this tour. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Avi for providing us with a truly memorable experience.

Dear Lorraine. Thank you so much for your kind words and your Time that you took to write this review. I would like to give your Gruop also a compliment ! I enjoyed every moment with you and your friends. And hopefully we will see each others again. Avi Ofek.

A once in a lifetime tour of Jerusalem and Bethlehem.

A wonderful experience with an excellent and knowledgeable guide. I would highly recommend this tour. Avi, our tour guide and driver, brought Bethlehem and Jerusalem to life with his knowledge of the history and the Bible. I would definitely recommend this tour but it would be an added bonus if you take it with Avi as your driver and guide. Everyone in the group agreed that this was the highlight of our visit.
