Fantastic Tour

Yuval was the perfect guide. He was informative and let to us trying new foods I wouldn’t otherwise have known to try. I learned so much and really enjoyed the experience. Wonderful group of other solo travelers.

Wish all tours were this great

Our tour guide was great. Had a wonderful command of the English language. He took us to a hidden gem for lunch.

I'll come back!

Fist time in Israel. The pick up was organised at Dan Hotel Tel Aviv. Van was comfortable and air conditioner. Eyal our guide for the day has such a high knowledge of the Bible Old & New Testament (I am a Christian), kind, respectful and patient. We had time to take pictures, to pray at certain important places like the Western Wall, Saint Sépulcre Church. We also visited a souvenir shop in Jerusalem and ate lunch in a restaurant. Yad Vashem was emotional. I highly recommend touring with Bein Harim Tourism Services, highly professional.
