Great experience for short tour. Highly recommended. - Great experience for a short tour. We got the best of Old City Jerusalem. The best way to do it is to go on your own after your guided tour so you can recap your experience at slower pace. Florent did a great job going over history and answering all our questions. Very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour. Wear comfortable shoes because there will be a lot of walking. If you go to Al Aqsa Mosque, the guard is very strict. So have your abaya and hijab ready. Pants, even oversized trousers are not allowed. Has to be a long skirt.

Wonderful guide, patient and super knowledgeable!! - Florent was absolutely incredible and very knowledgable about the history of Jerusalem and Israel! He took my husband and I on a private tour throughout the old city of Jerusalem for the day and explained in depth the history, culture and archeological wonders of the city. He answered every question we had, he was patient and dedicated to making sure we had the best experience. Jerusalem is filled with history and artifacts that, without a guide such as Florent, could easily be missed. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful day and that we were able to take in as much of the city as we could. I cannot recommend Florent enough!!

A wonderful private tour in Old Jerusalem...Thank you for the memories!! - The four of us were on a cruise and wanted a private tour just for us. We had a wonderful time walking in old Jerusalem with him. Easy to understand and added personal experiences of his to our journey. Had coffee in a little sidewalk cafe where the owner told tales of his many years there. You will come away with much understanding and history....highly recommend!

Moshe is a very well prepared and adaptive guide - Really enjoyed the tour - Moshe is very well prepared, friendly and very adaptive. We were two families with children aged from 4 to 9 years old and he was making sure that we are all well and interested. We were very unlucky that it poured like hell that day in Jerusalem. Moshe adapted the tour, so that we see everything planned, but still get some shelter in a nice location until the rain stops. He helped us get socks and get a little dryer - so he is very, very kind. Highly recommend - it's really worth the money.

Best Tour Guide in Israel! - We recently traveled to Israel and hired Florent for several full day private tours. This was our second trip using his services. He made all arrangements for transportation and site selections and was very knowledgeable about the history of each location. He even helped us find our way in Jerusalem when we got lost late at night and ran into him coincidentally. I would highly recommend anyone traveling that is looking for a personalized comprehensive experience in Israel to book with him!
