Let’s Ya’lla! Outstandingly planned itinerary. Our Guide and Driver are best in their field. Jacob, our guide, had encyclopedic knowledge of history and geography of the Holy Land. Nisan, our driver, could expertly maneuver our hulking big bus forward, backward, uphill and downhill! And he kept the bus clean every day. Meals were good except that the venues were often very crowded. A couple hotels were old with sagging mattresses and staff who simply were unresponsive to requests from guests. On the whole an excellent trip. Yalla is a great choice for travel to Israel.

The thing we hadn't thought about… The thing we hadn't thought about beforehand was the physical abilities of our fellow travelers on the tour. We would have preferred more walking and climbing to ruins, etc. but had to stick with the group. I guess I just assumed since there is so much walking on a tour to Israel everyone would be in decent shape.

If I could give them less than one… If I could give them less than one star, I would. THEY cancelled our trip, after postponing it for 2 years due to Covid. They won't issue a refund at all. A co-traveler gave them not only the deposit but an additional amount - $5500! - over and above the deposit - they won't give that back either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The tour in Egypt was a dream come… The tour in Egypt was a dream come through. We had an amazing experience. We were met on time by our egyptologist guides, transfer guides and drivers except on one occasion. I recommend to carry a smartphone to contact Ya'lla office in Egypt in case of emergency (very useful). The itinerary was respected, few optional additions offered (all worthed). Shoppings stops, as expected, but good produces offerings, no pressure to buy. The tipping guide was helpful. Wished the Egyptians were taking Canadians dollars. I would skip the farewell lunch at the end.

A great trip to Israel We were overall very happy with our tour of Israel. Our guide did an outstanding job of guiding a very diverse group (multiple countries, ages, and faith) of people through an incredibly complex country. We were very happy with the wide range of experiences that we were able to see in Israel. The hotels, transportation arrangements and other logistics worked very well. We are very glad we made the journey!
