GUEST REVIEWS

Private Tour with DEKEL tours Just came back from a 13 day trip to Israel. Mark at DEKEL Tours helped us plan a 7 day private tour. He was very attentive to our wants and needs and kept in touch with us throughout the full year of planning. They did everything from book our hotels to our activities. Mark also matched us with a great tour guide Ronen. Overall we had a great vacation and looking forward to travelling to Israel in the future. I would highly recommend using DEKEL tours.

Fabulous personalized tour We planned an itinerary with Dekel tours who tailored a bucket list of places with our site requests. Our guide was fantastic-well versed in history, archeology and natural wonders and very attentive to our needs. We saw and learned so much about different cultures, religions and history. It was an amazing unforgettable trip made easy by Dekel tours' handlers all along the way. Definitely recommend for a personalized tour.

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.

June 2023 Truly a magical experience where no stone was left unturned. Wonderful communication, bespoke planning, extreme professionalism. I can't say enough about our trip. Leann and Dan (our guide) were perfection!

Great Experience Back in the United States, we are reminiscing about our unforgettable family experience in Israel. We are grateful to you and Dekel Tours for organizing and facilitating a superior trip that met the needs and exceeded the expectations of all in our group, including youth and adults. The children and adults recorded their memories and reflections on the last day and had, among other responses, the following to say:“Between this trip and my Bar Mitzvah…I feel a great sense of pride in being Jewish.”“Thank you for this life changing experience and amazing trip.”“Thank you for letting us come to this amazing country and tour.”“ [This trip] helped me understand the complexity of the conflict and the situation Israel is in. I can now help [my friends] understand what Israel truly is.”The adults commented:“We have been here before but we [we had not done many] of the things we were able to see land do on this trip. It has been absolutely unforgettable”“This has been the trip of a lifetime. Israel is a beautiful, complex country, that I absorbed though all my senses.”“None of us will ever forget this trip. Thank for for giving all the kids, each in their own way, a closer connection to our people [and] Israel.”“It felt like home.”Some of the favorite experiences were:The ATV ride, the Jeep tour, Rosh Hanikra, Yad Vashem, Ein Gedi, talking to the tank loader in the Golan, Hezekiah’s tunnel, surfing in the Mediterranean, driving through the Judean desert, the food, especially the K’na’ani restaurant and breakfasts….Our tour guide, Sharon Pelleg, was outstanding. She reached out to youth and adults, meaningfully engaging the kids. Sharon went beyond the norm in seeking to meet the needs and respond to the interests of all. The guide at Yad Vashem (Lara….) was a wonderful educator who held the kids attention for over two hours. Our driver, Sergei, kept us safe and on time. The VIP access for the airport to the hotel and back was excellent. All contacts and connections made for a smooth and enjoyable experience. We have already given your name to a few people interested in traveling to Israel.

Excellent 2 weeks We were involved in a trip to Israel and Jordan for my granddaughter's bot mitzvah in Jerusalem that Dekel Tours arranged. We were a group of 18 that consisted of 6 to 80 years olds. We did everything from bike riding to wine tasting, to an archaeological dig plus so much more. All ages thoroughly enjoyed the trip and were included in the festivities. It was seamless, the hotels were perfect, bus driver and guides were excellent. You can't go wrong!

Highly recommend Dekel Tours and Yonatan/Jonathan as a tour guide! There were several favorite experiences during our week touring Israel with Yonatan/Jonathan as our tour guide! His explanations and stories were wonderful and his use of visual aids enhanced the history stories.

Made a trip of a lifetime come true for our church group. LeeAnn made all the arrangements for my group of 28 for 9 nights in Israel and 3 nights in Jordan. Everything she said she would do was provided: Coach, transfers, hotels, guides and more. The gift bags were filled helpful items including good water bottles, electrical adaptors. Our accommodations were great, everything went smoothly and the online payment portal was so easy to us. I recommend working with Dekel Tours.
