Fabulous private tour of Israel with Shalom We used Shalom Israel to book a private tour for four of us. Shalom helped us plan a fabulous itinerary, which we adjusted before and during our trip. From the moment we stepped off the plane, Shalom’s staff gave us VIP treatment. Someone met us at the gate and ushered us to the terminal and through customs, and saw us to the driver who took us to our hotel. The next day, we met our tour guide Shimon, who gave us a fascinating and informative 8-day tour of Israel from the coast to the Golan Heights to Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, and Masada. Shimon adjusted the schedule daily to our needs and interests, and made sure that we learned a lot and had fun, fun, fun. Thanks to Shalom and Shimon, we experienced the trip of a lifetime! I will call them again for my next trip.

First and foremost i am not one to give … First and foremost i am not one to give a negative review. However, we missed 2 flights out of Frankfurt--we notified Mr. Stark as soon as we were able and were aware of our connection plans. He told us they could not accommodate due to shabbat. That is understandable but our group that we were traveling with arrived on time and received a guide at the tarmac-ac, whisked them thru customs and led the to a chauffeur to their hotel. we traveled 48 hrs and proceeded to stand in a customs line and extremely long taxi que. When asking Mr. stark for a refund for the transportation service he did not provide or at least a reimbursement for our taxi he was unaccommodating. He was outraged that we would even suggest. Tour was great; Mordecai our guide was excellent!!!!!! He was warm, humorous and shared his passion for the country. Mr stark was difficult and unpleasant to work with

Fulfilled Every Expectation Upon the recommendation by very good friends we contacted and chose Shalom Israel Tours to plan a private tour with guide for our first trip to Israel. We were two couples with some ideas of where we would like to visit and what we would like to experience . It was a pleasure to work with Shalom Stark. He was easy to communicate with and offered many suggestions and it all came together perfectly. Our guide , Yehuda was excellent; a Sabra with the most unbelievable knowledge of 4,000 years of history, and many stories to tell. Our trip was planned for June, 2014 and our itinerary covered Jerusalem, the Golan Heights, and Tel Aviv with many stops along the way. After spending this time together we miss Yehuda ! We would not hesitate to recommend Shalom Israel Tours. We had a wonderful experience !

Guides make or break a trip. Shalom has the best! We have been on two trips with Shalom Israel tours. The 1st was a medium sized group tour in October 2013. The 2nd was a private family tour in Feb 2014. Many companies know the sights to see. What makes or breaks a trip for me are the accommodations & the guides. I've been to Israel 9 times, and wished I'd found Shalom Israel Tours sooner. Shalom Israel Tours was quick in responding to all details in the planning of my trips. They are informed & knowledgeable about the best hotels and restaurants. The guides are excellent, and very good at managing the needs of the travelers, as well as, teaching the history of Israel. I will continue to use Shalom Israel Tours in the future & will recommend this company to all my friends!

Shalom doesn´t just bend over backwards … Shalom doesn´t just bend over backwards to make sure clients are happy - he does BACKFLIPS! Can´t recommnend enough. Seriously, we probably had the best tour guide we´ve ever had in our lives when we went to Masada. In general, Shalom was always available to answer questions and resolve doubts. Everything was just EASY for us. And that´s what we wanted. My only question now is: Shalom - when do you sleep?!??
