The best of Israel - Sveen is probably one of the best tour guide i have encountered, She beats all the rest when it comes to Israel history and shes right ill be one of Israel ambassador to tell good and factual history of the young at 75 years of Independence. Happy Independence day!

Important religious sites and beautiful Jordan River - Definitely a great tour. The guide explains the significance of each site before you get there and references the Bible and current research. There was more to this tour than I assumed given the importance of the Galilee region at the time of Christ that I now know about. Lunch, time to shop and bathroom breaks made the day pleasurable. Also, the Sea of Galilee and Jordan River were more beautiful than imagined

Enjoyable day in Nazareth - Our guide Martin was very organized. He gave us information prior to each site which gave me insight. It also allowed me to enjoy the significance of each. He kept us going at a good pace.

Mediocre - Not a very friendly tour guide , place for Lunch was just ok.
We got to see a lot of cool places in short amount of time but don’t expect the friendliness of the tour guide as you would expect in your home country specially if you are coming from North America.
Do this tour if you want to see quite few places in a short amount of time as your only option !!!
