The Trip of a Lifetime – Perfectly Planned by Dekel Tours! We just returned from an unforgettable family trip to Israel, thanks to the incredible team at Dekel Tours—especially our travel planner, David Gross. From the very beginning, David was thoughtful, responsive, and incredibly patient (we made at least 10 revisions to our itinerary, and he encouraged each one!). He truly listened to what we wanted and delivered a trip that exceeded all expectations.Every detail David promised came through seamlessly—from airport transfers to hotel accommodations to special touches throughout. He was always just a phone call away, no matter the hour, to answer even the smallest question.We were a multigenerational group of seven—Mom, Dad, four kids ages 11 to 18, and Bubby in her 70s—and David picked the perfect guide for us. Shuki Cohen was an absolute gem: knowledgeable, warm, funny, and able to engage every member of our family. Our kids connected with him instantly, and even Bubby felt completely taken care of.Dekel Tours gave us more than just a vacation—they gave us an experience full of memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re thinking about going to Israel, stop thinking and call Dekel. You’ll be in the best hands.

Best trip ever Thank you David, Bradley Asher Drimmer. We went for our Daughter's Bat Mitzvah and toured for 2 full weeks. Everything was perfect and it was truly the best trip of our lives. We can't wait to go back.

Incredible Israel experience Wow. it is hard to find the words to describe our trip to Israel, and the role that Dekel played. I had spent two months in Israel in 1994 on the High School in Israel program, and it was life changing for me. I wanted to share Israel with my children (aged 6 and 12), and contacted Dekel to help us. Marc was amazing. We spoke at length, and based of our conversations, he put together an itinerary that was the perfect balance of fun, educational, adventurous, and meaningful. The hotels were great, the airport service was extraordinary, and our guide, Muriel Sassoon was incomparable. I highly recommend Dekel. They are the best.

An Amazing Trip We've been home for a week since our amazing trip to Israel to celebrate our granddaughter's bat mitzvah. Despite our initial safety concerns, we made the decision to join our family. We always felt safe and well cared for with our wonderful guide Amir and our driver Hezi. From the time we were met at the gate in Tel Aviv to the time we left, Amir filled our heads and hearts with the astounding history, the uniqueness of Israel's people, and perspective on the current situation. We cannot recommend the tour group more enthusiastically and look forward to celebrating our grandson's bar mitzvah with Dekel in a few years.

THE BEST private tour guide to Israel!! Dekel Tours did an outstanding job putting together a family tour of Israel. They were extremely focused on reflecting and delivering exactly what we wanted to experience, as well as letting us know about opportunities of which we might not have been aware. Our tour guide Rotem was knowledgeable, attentive, pleasant and completely on top of her game, as was our company contact, David. When we wanted to buy particular items, Rotem knew exactly where to bring us or found out where to take us if she didn't. Anytime we had a concern, David was reachable and ready with a perfect solution. We were a "high maintenance" family but nothing we requested was considered too difficult or too much or too anything. There were no "surprise" charges and the service was simply beyond reproach. They respected cost consciousness when it was wanted and were knowledgeable about splurging when that was wanted. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Outstanding Tour Company Dekel was outstanding in every aspect, from the escort not after baggage claim but right after I exited the plane, to the immediate drive to the hotel, to the informative & enthusiastic guide (Avi) who accompanied us everywhere, to the proficient driver (Hezi), in short, first class personnel, itinerary, accommodations & meals. Easy to recommend if one's looking for crème de la crème treatment. Don't miss Tel Aviv, Jaffa, Ceasarea, Ayalon Institute, Yvel Design Center, Jerusalem & the Dead Sea. Anita for ice cream. Alexander Bakery for sweets. David Kempinski for hotel in Tel Aviv.
