					  Eight of us booked the 8day heritage Israel Christian tour with  the private tour guide. We got everything we asked for. Although our tour guide was not a Christian... read more she was well-versed In the history and information from the Bible. She was very accommodating and worked with us  on the itinerary. We even had an extra added attraction at the end   she was able to add in a Galilee boat ride. We even got transportation directly from Jerusalem to our Airbnb in Tel Aviv instead of the airport at no extra charge. The guide,Chava and the coordinator Rebecca even helped find us a ride from Tel Aviv to the airport two days later. This service was not part of the contract but on their day off they spent some time helping us confirm the transportation.
