What a wonderful day! Our guide Itamar Buk led us with his wisdom and charm through the day while reading out relevant bible verses. It was a wonderful excursion despite the heat and great people on the tour! Thank you I learned a lot
The best day of our holiday

My husband, daughter (age 8) and I joined this tour group (or family as our guide liked to call us all) last week and it was easily the best day of our trip to Israel.
Our guide was entertaining, thoughtful and extremely knowledgeable, he had a tricky name to pronounce so said that we should call him Isaac.
We stopped at so many different sites along the way, it was amazing how much we fit in to one day. This is a great tour to do if you are short on time in the area.
My daughter learnt so much, which she has enjoyed telling her class mates back in the UK. The things we enjoyed the most were taking the cable car to the top of temptation mountain, seeing the Sycamore tree that the bible reads Zacchaeus climbed to see Jesus and also our trip to the Dead Sea. We also squeezed in a quick camel ride, a stop at an Elvis museum, a trip to the Jordon river, lunch and a spot of shopping. We also met some great people from different countries and it was a pleasure to spend the day with them.
On the drive back everyone slept but I enjoyed the 80's music Isaac listens to and we sang along and chatted about it. A very memorable day : )
Wonderful trip

Review of YOAV MALACHI, our tour guide

Yaov was our driver and tour guide while on our tour to Jericho and the Dead Sea.
Personally we loved it. He was funny and helpful and informative. He was easy going and showed us things at our pace. Always remembering out names and where we were from.

I've been on many countless tours, from the big bus to the red bus to safari tours and much more, but I enjoyed this one the most. Yaov was courteous and generous, even going as far as to buy us bananas from Jericho.

I dont only recommend this type of tour but hope when you do you get Yaov as your tour guide.

We've decided to add a tour to our list and will be going on the Galilee tour on Saturday.

All the best.

Thanks YOAV MALACHI.

Sincerely
Zasha and Gareth
Didn’t start well but ended well
SGSkyes23, 24-11-2022
We didn’t start the day well due to their internal operations miscommunication and leaving 7 passengers going on this tour stranded in a carpark meeting point. We’ve told quite a few different guide that we were waiting for bus 11 but none called the office to report or check. Upon reporting, luckily we have local numbers, they booked a taxi for us to catch up with the bus at jeralseum and it was embarrassing that the bus load of passengers were waiting for us.
Well, they did resolve the problem ultimately as we managed to join the tour but about 1.5 hours were wasted and thus leaving us less time to enjoy the highlight of the tour Dead Sea/
I also want to shout out and commends on the driver and the our guide Josef .. he is knowledgeable , funny and good service. He managed to appease the feelings caused by the morning hiccup
