Mark worked with me on several revisions. In the end, we finalized the itinerary and when on the trip. All I have to say is that the service we got from Dekel Tours was absolutely Presidental!! From getting off the Airplane in Israel, to the hotel, touring, and getting me back home, they took care of everything. I felt like a new born baby. No worries at all, just enjoy the sights, sounds and walk in the footsteps of Jesus. Thank you Dekel Tours, you are the best. Lastly, Dekel gave us the best tour guides, especially Micheal, he was so knowledgeable about the places we visited and gave us some extra places to see that were not part of the itinerary. I highly recomment Dekel Tours for your customized tour, and or private tour. (Regge Thorpe) read less

We had the most unbelievable experience and are still completely overwhelmed by how amazing it was. LeeAnn Langer planned our trip and we had the incomparable Alon as our guide. We had a wonderful consultation and the trip was tailored perfectly to our interests. Our hotels were incredible, our itinerary was a beautiful mix of adventure, relaxation, inspiration, cultural education, incredible food, natural beauty, fun, and every little detail down to guiding us through the airport upon arrival was handled. If you want to go to Israel and just ENJOY, I cannot recommend touring through Dekel enough. We were so sad to come home!

Our guide Alon was a true highlight of our experience. He was so knowledgeable, fun, energetic, and just a joy to be with. When you spend 10 days straight with someone you’ve just met, it’s really saying something that you MISS them when you leave! He made our trip truly special.

It should be mentioned this trip was originally planned for Dec 2021 but due to COVID, Israel closed the borders a week before our trip. Dekel handled everything and our rescheduled trip was no problem at all. I was so grateful for their professional responsiveness during the crazy travel issues that have come up this year!

We truly feel like this was the trip of a lifetime and we can’t even imagine trying to top it. We will never forget our magical time in Israel! Thank you LeeAnn, Alon & Dekel! read less

In our case it was contracting Covid while in Israel. Our touring with Dekel had concluded and we were continuing our travels to France when both my husband and I started feeling I’ll. We self tested to confirm our concerns as the tour in France required the execution of a Covid waiver. We had to cancel that portion of our touring. Once we realized that we would have to stay in Israel an extra 5 days sequestered per the Israeli Health Administration we sought help from David Gross with Dekel. Without any delay he arranged for us to get an official antigen test (which was positive for us) as well as secured a hotel room. He also arranged transportation to the airport when it was time to return home. Once home we attempted to reach CF Travel Insured, the travel insurance company recommended by Dekel, to make a claim for additional costs incurred for Trip Interruption coverage. After many attempts we were unable to reach a representative. We decided to ask Dekel for it's assistance in pursuing our claim. We spoke with Dekel CEO Bradley Lennox who immediatly pursued the claim on our behalf which resulted in receiving contact with a representative from CF Travel Insured. We could not have asked for a more professional and friendly response from Bradley and the Dekel staff. Ruthanne & Sam Rozenek read less

It was amazing. They handled everything - hotels, transfers, all my tours, and we saw everything on our lists that we wanted to get done. We also had some issues in country that we needed help with and they provided guidance and even made calls well beyond the scope that was required. Tamar lead and everything and I can't say enough! read less

Dekel tours with David Gross easily won my business through their consultative conversations. We finalized a tour that covered most of Israel and included an overnight in Petra Jordon. All of the hotels were great, and the guide David arranged for us was fantastic. I’m sure we saw more than the average tourist over the course of 14 days. I highly recommend Dekel Tours if you have ideas about what you want to see and want to customize something special for yourself. read less

LeeAnn was amazing to work with as she had every part of our journey planned. Since we were one of the first groups to travel to Israel since COVID, having Dekel arrange all of the testing that was required to travel from country to country was extremely helpful (we needed 4 tests within 11 days).

Dekel had arranged for us to be guided by an extremely knowledgable group of experts...true historians. They were all eager to answer all questions...we had a lot of them. Having a private driver during our excursions saved us an incredible amount of time and worry.

LeeAnn also had arranged for people to help us at each arriving and departing airpot. As a general rule, each airport has english speaking personnel. However, having a local person helping us was a very nice touch. We didn't know how beneficial this was until we exited one of the Israel land borders without assistance. read less
