Daniel is super knowledgeable, smart, and open minded guide happy to share everything you want to know about Northern Israel, Jesus’s story, and anything else really you’d like to ask about. The sites are stunning, rich in culture, and definitely worth the trip!
Fantastic tour with Elad. He is so knowledgeable about the history of the places and the culture. I saw a number of churches in the area where Jesus walked.
Hi, we had a great experience working with Daniel and going on the tour led by Eli. Eli was very knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. He also was our driver. I learned a ton of facts about Israeli history, current events and demographics, about things from water desalination projects to the efforts of local Christians to revive the endangered language of Aramaic, spoken by Jesus. We saw numerous churches and archaeological sites. It was inspiring and my favorite tour in my life.
Great tour of Nazareth and Galilee. Knowledgeable tour guide who was informative and friendly. Gallo was great
Thank you Andrew, hoping to see you again in the Holyland! There is still a lot to see... Daniel
You will learn things you never knew before and see and incredible part of biblical history with a clever take on it.
Day #2 of my trip with Eli. Eli made everything very convenient. He contacted me a few days before my tours to confirm when we would meet and where. It was bit of a trek going from Tel Aviv up north to Nazareth and Galilee, but it was so worth it. Eli was great in tailoring the tour to fit my interests. He was so knowledgeable and personable. He made time for us to get lunch and made sure I drank enough water because it was SO HOT today. I was visiting these sites from more of a religious and spiritual standpoint. I am definitely coming back to Israel for a third time because there's still more to see! =)
Did a couple of tours with Israel with Fun and was very pleased. The second tour was the Footsteps of Jesus tour and were very pleased with our guides. They made sure we were safe and the sites were open before departing as several sites were unstaffed due to the conflict. One site even sent someone to open the gates to let us tour on the Sea of Galilee. We never felt unsafe during the drive or at sites and we were steeled to return when it is more permissive to go to some of the areas that we couldn't. We will definitely be using Daniel again to do our next trip.
We chose Israel with fun as the reviews were outstanding and having Daniel (with crazy yellow hat) as our tour guide was a real bonus. Nothing too much trouble, very knowledgeable, chilled water always available, superb lunch stop too! He even changed our itinerary at the last minute so we could fit in the River Jordan. We would recommend Daniel and his company to all visitors.
Daniel was the consummate professional, but with the personality that matches his passionate knowledge of his country, its history, and its culture. He is informative, without being overbearing, and opinionated in a way that, while scrupulously diplomatic, nevertheless allows guests to understand much more than most of our commonly held perceptions. Spending the day with Daniel was both educational and entertaining, so count us among the many travelers who offer our enthusiastic recommendation of his services.
Evelyn our tour guide, was excellent. She provided us with historical background of each site visited. Had booklet and maps to enhance our understanding of the sites. Our tour was private, only for our party. She encourage us to ask questions. All of the sites indicated in the tour were visited.
