Doing what: Little Town of Bethlehem Half Day Trip from Jerusalem
Good tip, guide turned up on time but a certain amount of messing around while they bundle you in to the correct coaches at a distribution center on Mt Scopus. The guide was very good at getting us around lengthy queues at the Church of the Nativity but then forced us into a pricey Palestinian tourist-tat shop, telling us they were going to give us free mint tea as "traditional Palestinian hospitality".

Doing what: Day Tour of Jerusalem and Bethlehem
Guide was good but the trips with this supplier are disorganized and need improvement operationally. Once you get past all the craziness with switching cars, buses several times, late pick-ups in the mornings the trip is great. If it was just one switch to get in to Bethlehem but it was several and we didn't understand what was happening some of the time.

Doing what: Nazareth, Tiberias and the Sea of Galilee Day Trip from Jerusalem
Supplier is operationally challenged but the guide was great and interested in all the guests. We were two hours late (it was not just traffic) getting back after being promised on time return which was important to me this day as I had another commitment.

Doing what: Caeserea and Rosh Hanikra Day Trip from Jerusalem
If ratings were based on just the guides I would give every trip I took in Israel 5 stars. But when you add in the disorganization of the local operator the ratings drop. Late morning pick-ups, confusion over who was going where, a woman who comes in to the room shouting names and never introduces herself or company ; not very professional in the operations. The actual tour is wonderful.

Doing what: Masada and the Dead Sea Day Trip from Jerusalem
Tour guide was below average, had no enthusiasm at all. The first stop was in the Dead Sea product cosmetic store for almost an hour. When we finally arrived to Massada, she rashed the group to the cable car and we got lost. Main points were covered but nothing extra.

Doing what: Nazareth, Tiberias and the Sea of Galilee Day Trip from Jerusalem
Be aware, you have to spend up to 7 hr total ONLY on a way to and from destination vs 6 or less hrs of sightseeing itself. I was picked up in JLM at 550am and dropped of at 850pm. Waited up to 15 min for each person to pickup, more than 1 hr for shuttles to gather ppl from hotels. Did not leave to Tel Aviv - 1 hr ride - to pick up TLV group till 730am. Guide joined only there. Unpleasant surprises: nothing in tour description was said ab a stop at baptismal site at Jordan, heard that first time from guide, many could get prepared instead of paying $25 for a robe or $10 for renting it. On the way back instead of sending TLV group by a separate van as we were told, we drove all the way back to almost TLV - 5 min from it, where the split took place. And we were only 30-35 ppl total on a bus, JLM group was even larger than TLV. AWEFUL service and ugly attitude of servers? they looked like crooks, at the lunch restaurant at Galilee Sea - $11 for salad bar and $22 for same with kebab or fish. American kind of coffee in thumbnail size plastic???? cups, no milk no sugar. Well, fresh dates. Half group waited for 50 min for meat/fish after salads, still were charged. Guide did not check on our tables until we came up to complain, he and driver sat at separate table and had the whole meal served right away. We had to wait for coffee, dates, separately as they dont serve until everyone is done w their meal. Bootcamp rules. Guide did not stand for us to demand refund or no charge for late meals. VERY poor logistics

Doing what: Masada and the Dead Sea Day Trip from Jerusalem
Great trip, perfect timing/pace/logistics. Overpriced though good meal at Masada - $37 for soup/salad/chick w rice and a cake n coffee. I was fortunate to be in JLM as for Tel Aviv group that day trip turned at least 3 hrs longer with driving/waiting for uniting both groups time. Due to unusual low tourist flow on Passover we did not have to wait for meals/cable cars. Dead sea stop is great, enough time to soak in water and silky black mud full body mask. Overall we were given 1.5 hr there, minus changing/walking to beach time it was at least an hour to enjoy the wonders of Dead Sea. Stop at famous Ahava Dead Sea product factory/store was only 30 min, on the way to Massada. TOO short to wrap your mind on what to choose and look through products. No time for store presentation. Thank God, there were enough assistance to help you w choices. But haste was stressful. Guide Menashem was very knowledgable and brought additional illustrative materials for Massada story. One could tell he really cares personally about the Israeli history and Massada in particularly. Trip is VERY worth of money value and time.

This tour was fantastic. Masada is amazing and the Dead Sea was also great fun. We had a great tour guide who was very knowledgeable and kept things interesting. Great value and definitely worth doing if you are in Jerusalem!

This was the best tour I have ever been on. Apart from what we experienced, which was amazing, the tour guide was awesome! He was funny, knowledgable and very engaging. He didn't just regurgitate information but imparted knowledge and insights that you will remember. 110% recommend this tour and hopefully the tour guide - can't remember his real name but he said call him Isaac. Thank you!

Doing what: Jerusalem from Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport Private Arrival Transfer
Fantastic service! I must say that everything went very smooth indeed from the initial internet booking to the final drop-off. As we entered the arrivals hall, the driver was holding a sign which clearly displayed my name. He was parked very close so there was no long trek with our luggage. The journey from the airport to Jerusalem was comfortable and we were driven straight to our rented house.
