The trip of a lifetime! Planning a bar mitzvah in Israel from the United States seemed like a daunting task. I am BEYOND grateful that I found Dekel Tours to help me with this huge undertaking. David Gross and Avital Rachmilevitch made this so easy for me! David planned a ten day tour for 36 of my family members ranging in age from 4-78. A month after returning, we are all still glowing from the incredible experience. David was responsive, easy to work with, professional, kind and a native English speaker, (which made communicating much easier). The itinerary was fantastic, each day was filled with incredible activities that were fun and enriching. He set us up with a fantastic tour guide and bus driver and everyone involved worked hard everyday to make sure all of our needs were met. (Not easy to do with 36 people!) David took care of everything from A-Z. Literally, from the moment we landed until we step foot on the plane to go home, he was with us all the way. Avital worked with me to plan an unforgettable event for my son’s bar mitzvah. She took care of all the swag for the trip from t-shirts and goodies, to balloons and décor for the event. I would HIGHLY recommend Dekel Tours for anybody planning a trip to Israel.

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.

Thanks for an unforgettable holiday, full of connecting, exciting activities. Thanks a lot to Jodie from Dekel Tours who understood very well what we were looking for when traveling to Israel. She organised a trip that met the diversity of expectations of our family with 3 children/teenagers. It was an unforgettable journey, a very good and interesting guide, a refreshing variety of connecting, exciting and sometimes moving activities. I would recommend Dekel Tours to anyone planning a trip to Israel. K. Lamberigts, Belgium, july 2023.

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.

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.

Israel with Dekel Just returned from Israel and would love to commend and recommend Dekel tours and David Gross. From the VIP welcome through passport to the hotels etc we had a first rate experience. The two hotels (which were middle tier) were excellent. The rooms and the food were outstanding. David gross was very accommodating and caring from beginning to end. While the schedule was great there was always room for adjustment. Rani Weiss was truly a great driver and guide. He was caring and always tried to include Libby in the conversation. It was a truly wonderful experience and I recommend them highly.

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.
