It was an excellent tour. I couldn't ask for more. The ride was smooth and everything was on time. Visoted all the places we wanted to see and even a couple more that were not in our plan. Yale, the tour guide was great. She gave us very interesting and insightful information about the places we visited. I can honestly recommend this tour.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We are so pleased that the day ran smoothly and that you were able to visit everything you hoped for and more. Yale will be happy to know her insights added meaning to the experience. Providing well-organized tours led by knowledgeable, engaging guides is something we continually focus on refining. We hope you will travel with us again soon!
It was a wonderful day for a Northern Israel Tour. Felt so blessed with a great tour host and courteous driver. Yael was so sweet and knowledgeable and brought us to these momentous and ancient locations. We went to all the significant places where Jesus lived from His toddler years up to His very first miracle and other miracles that happened in the area. Its was such a special and spiritual journey we will never forget.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We are happy to hear you enjoyed the tour and look forward to have you join us in your next travels :)
We had Shlomi for a trip to Nazareth. He was an excellent guide and was highly organised, including opening a WhatsApp chat and willing to answer any questions. The trip was informative and good value for money. Many thanks Shlomi.
Thanks for sharing this! Clear communication and organization are key parts of our day tours, and we’re glad the experience felt both informative and good value.
The problems started before the start of the tour. The scheduled time was 7:15. In the trip summary there was no recommendation of arrival in advance. Based on other tours I hired for Trip Advisor, I imagined it was a meeting time for departure at 7:30. As I was heading towards the meeting point, at 7:15 the guide (Shlomi) called me saying that I was leaving. I asked if I could wait 10 minutes for my arrival. He said to run and would wait. At 7:20 Shlomi called me again asking where I was because I was leaving. I got angry with the call just 5 minutes after the first and 5 minutes before my expected arrival and said that I was entering the parking lot and would arrive in an instant. We're on board. Total of 8 tourists. We started the tour in Galilee and visited the first two churches on the roadmap. When we went to the third, fourth and fifth checkpoints, they were all closed. Shlomi said he did not understand why they would be closed (it would be because it is a Catholic holiday - 1/jan ?), that we would try to come back later in the day and contacted the tour agency. We went to the baptism site on the Jordan River. He received guidance from the agency to take us to Ceasarea, after lunch, since the rest of the tour in Galilee was compromised by the locations closed. For lunch took us to a small shwarma restaurant next to a gas station. He wanted to give us 20 minutes to eat. I asked for 40 minutes and he ended up accepting 35 minutes, that is, until 15:15. All other tourists had finished their meals and got on the van at 15:05. At 15:07, while I was eating, Shlomi asked me to go back to the van. I interpeled him saying that there were still 7 minutes left for the agreed schedule, but he ignored the situation and reinforced the request for me to return to the bus. I didn't answer him and at 15:12 he started moving the van, seeming to be leaving us behind. I had to quickly run with my wife, pay the sandwiches quickly (140 shkalim for the two sandwiches) and run to the van begging them not to leave. We had a rough discussion when we got in the van. I told him he wasn't meeting the agreed lunch schedule. At the end, to the bus microphone, Shlomi said we could make any bad assessment of him, didn’t mind, and revealed that he regretted waiting for us for the 10 minutes we were late at the start of the tour. We have not had any dialogue since then. When the van arrived at Ceasarea Shlomi took the group of the other six tourists to the tour. My wife and I chose to stay in the van. At the end of the tour, Shlomi asked us to get in touch with the travel agency to see how to address the unvisited points. There was no convincing explanation of why the sights were closed.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding your recent tour. We would like to clarify that the official start time of 7:15 is clearly stated on our website, booking platform, and in the confirmation email that includes the detailed tour information. This confirmation was sent to you at the time of booking the tour. As with all our group tours, guests are expected to arrive at the designated meeting time to ensure a timely departure. Our group tours are carefully structured to allow all travelers to enjoy the full itinerary. For this reason, departure times, site visits, and lunch breaks are managed according to schedule. Staying on time is essential in order to avoid delays that may result in certain sites being skipped later in the day and to ensure the tour concludes at the planned time. Maintaining the schedule is also important out of fairness to the rest of the group. Regarding the site closures in the Galilee area, occasionally, churches or religious sites may close due to holidays or local observances. When this occurs, adjustments are made in real time in coordination with our operations team to provide suitable alternatives within the available timeframe. For travelers who prefer greater flexibility with timing and pacing, we do offer private tours, which allow for a more customized schedule. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to clarify these points. — Tourist Israel Team
Shlomo was a wonderful tour guide! Very friendly and knowledgeable! Very comprehensive tour of the Christian sites in the north of Israel
We’re glad you enjoyed the tour with Shlomo. His friendly approach and deep knowledge of Christian sites make him a favorite among many Tourist Israel travelers.
Our tour to Nazareth and the region around the Sea of Galilee was just fantastic. Sharif had so much knowledge about all the different sites and overall made the experience very pleasant. I totally recommend this tour. Thank you very much!

Sharif was very friendly and knowledgeable about all the historical sites that he took us to we went to nazareth ,sea of galile, the Baptist site we went to the water, and we saw the ruins of the house of the Virginia Mary
We’re thrilled to hear you had such a great, full day exploring with us. Our Galilee, Nazareth and More Tour is designed to showcase as much as possible, so it’s wonderful that you enjoyed all the sites along the way.
Our tour with Sharif was absolutely unforgettable! He took us from Nazareth to the Sea of Galilee, sharing so much history and insight along the way — you can truly tell he’s passionate and incredibly knowledgeable about every site. The highlight of our day was getting baptized in the Jordan River, and Sharif went above and beyond to make that experience meaningful and smooth for us. He was patient, kind, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. I can’t recommend him enough — if you’re visiting the Holy Land, make sure you tour with Sharif!
Thank you, Yessica! We’re thrilled to hear that Sharif made your tour so memorable and meaningful, especially your baptism in the Jordan River. We ensure all of our guides at Tourist Israel are passionate about sharing the history and culture of the Holy Land, and it’s great to know Sharif’s knowledge, patience, and care helped make your day smooth and enjoyable. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words, and we hope to welcome you on another tour soon!
I am a first time user of viator and its app. On may 28 I had a paid and confirmed trip 1650425259 to Galilee, Israel. I was told on may 30 by viator that I had cancelled the trip but I did not cancel the trip but failed to follow through and generate my tickets and I believe the system perceived that as a traveler canceling their ticket. I then rebooked the Galilee trip that same day and viator cancelled that trip I believe. I’m just writing to confirm that both of my bookings $149 to Galilee for $298 are refunded please. Thanks. Kevin. Please don’t post this comment as I’m sure the trip would have been just fine. I just want to assure the refunds and as I’m on travel I can’t easily contact my credit card company to talk with them.
Max did great as a guide and our driver was safe/professional. The guide, Max was sensitive to my wife's disabilities. Max was multilingual too, knowing both Spanish and Russian, as do I. This was helpful, as I didn't need to translate to Spanish for my wife. He could speak directly with her. The tour was great also because I preferred to relax and let someone else drive for a day. We felt safe and cared for as well, given the current conflict situation. The tour was timely, fun, and educational. It was a pleasure to experience what Israel's northern Galilee region had to offer. We came to Israel to volunteer, as well as for sightseeing. We came to stand with Israel in this difficult time, and felt safe and fulfilled in doing so.
Robert, thank you for your kind words! We’re delighted Max could assist you so well and that you felt safe and cared for during your Galilee tour. Your support means a lot to us, and we’re glad you enjoyed the experience. If you need anything else, we’re here to help!
