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.

Israel 2022 with DEKEL Tours My sister and I took a trip to Israel that was postponed for two years due to oCOVID. A friend recommended DEKEL, specifically LeeAnn Langer. I e-mailed LeeAnn and she quickly replied. I was on the phone with her within a few days and she took her time asking me questions about what my sister and I wanted to do. She planned a private tour for 3 weeks for my sister and I which included an overnight in Petra. We were given a choice of hotels to choose from and we were able to make changes to the itinerary before we got there. LeeAnn set us up with the greatest guide. LeeAnn listened to what we wanted and the trip was outstanding. Her team was always available if we had questions. Everything was taken care of. Transport to everywhere, VIP treatment arriving and leaving at the airport, great hotels, reservations taken care of, and just being spoiled with the attention to detail. And when I mentioned wine tasting, we went to 5 wineries. Most important is the guide they got us, Shira Victor. Shira is the best. Three weeks was not enough time. For the next trip to Israel, I will be contacting DEKEL to help arrange the trip.

Memorable b'not mitzvah tour David planned a fantastic trip in Israel for our extended family which included three grandparents, three of our adult daughters and eight grandchildren. Two of the grandaughters celebrated their b'not mitzvah in israel. From the moment we arrived, until our flight home, the trip was flawless. Our accomadations were great, and the activities planned were perfect for all ages. Our guide and driver were terrific. They were both extremely friendly, accommodating, and flexible whenever we made slight changes to the itinerary and we all felt like we were well taken care of. The trip was a memorable experience for everyone- grandparents, parents, and children alike.

Great experience! David from Dekel organized a 7-day trip for the 5 of us through Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and points in between. David was extraordinarily patient through a planning process that took more than two years and with multiple hiccups relating to COVID, changing family lineups, and the rest. He ultimately designed a tour that struck a great balance between kid-friendly and adult-friendly activities.Our tour guide, Yehuda, was terrific. He's a scholar of archeology and Biblical history but he's equally adept discussing modern history, politics and culture. He was highly informative but also patient and low-key (very helpful in intimate private tours) and our kids loved him. Overall a fantastic experience!

Amazing! Now I understand! Isreal is a complicated beautiful place. And Dekel Tours planned our custom private five star adventure as if they knew us! I traveled with an athletic 80 year old mother and my sister and I for 13 days. The best parts? Graffiti tour, wine tasting, culinary school, fashion tour, Masada, Dead Sea, Bunker tours with a Coronel, Ein Geti, Bird sanctuary, kibbutz, old Jerusalem were the high lights. Our guide was extremely educated, somewhat bossy but it worked. We learned about the culture and history like no other. I highly recommend Dekel, ask for Mark!

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.

Magical Trip Every detail of our trip was a joy - from the professional staff in the office to our fantastic guide. Mark listened to our goals and put together an itinerary that was engaging for first-timers and return-travelers. We were a congregational trip with people from 12 years old to 80, a mix of people who are Jewish and not, from several different states, and we came home connected to each other forever! As the person who staffed the trip, I was especially happy about the customer service and attention to detail we received from the Dekel staff.

Incredible Service! I had a quick trip to Israel and needed expert help with logistics on transportation. I reached out to David and he was fantastic! Highly recommend him and his team! He was responsive, kind, informative, and explained all my options. He compared pricing and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. You don’t get any better than him! Thank you, David for your expert advice and execution on my short trip. Will be 100% calling you again on my next family trip to Israel.
