Guided visit to Tel-Aviv and Jerusalem - My wife and I had a wonderful three-day guided tour with Monica in Telaviv and Jerusalem. She is very knowledgeable, friendly, dedicated and efficient. She goes the extra mile to understand what you want to see and do, and adjusts the itinerary accordingly. She carries around a file with large pictures and maps which are very helpful as visual aids to her explanations.

The stories make Jerusalem more beautiful then it already is. - Because of knowledge of the stories and history, the archaeological layers get much more interesting to watch and experience. Menno has a lot of knowledge about it and nice to hear his answer on our questions.

Best tour in Jerusalem - If you want to see all the nooks and crannies, but you also want to decide your own route, don't feel like bumping around in droves after a guide with a flag, then you book this tour. Guide Menno knows what he is talking about. Communicates clearly. Adjusts the tempo to your needs. Recommended

Great private tour with Menno - I had a great tour and a fun time with Menno who is very knowledgeable of the city and its history. I particularly liked the way he linked the ancient history with what we see today. Also, I had a day on my own (with no tour guide) and Menno gave me great recommendations. I hesitated to take a private tour but I’m glad I did, it was totally worth it!

Incredible 6 hour tour - We really recommend this tour. We did a private tour with Menno on Christmas Day, and visited the holy sites for all 3 religions in the city. During the 6 hour tour we arrived to many places we would have never gotten to had we not had a knowledgeable and local guide, so we think this tour is truly a must for anyone who wants to visit the old city!

Private tour, Old City with Jeremy - Absolutely fantastic day out in The Old City of Jerusalem. We arranged a private tour with Jeremy as our guide and it was exactly what we had hoped for. We were taken to all the places we wanted to visit and had plenty of information provided by Jeremy. As a tour guide, Jeremy had a very natural way about him and the information he provided us about the City did not feel over rehearsed. The pace of the tour was very relaxed, stopping were we wanting but at the same time ensuring we got to see everything we had on the list. Jeremy was also great with our kids. A fantastic day out!

Most incredible personal tour of Jerusalem (Family) - We just did a full day tour of Jerusalem with my 3 boys, 13,11 and 8 years old. We loved every minute of it, we had Amit Musaei as our guide, he did an amazing job, he kept kids interested for the entire 10 hours. We saw and learned so many things it truly was one of the most unique experiences we have ever had. It’s def a must to book with Amit, he’s extremely knowledgeable and very cool, able to accommodate our requests. Cant rave enough about our experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
