“Excellent, safe, and fun tour of Galilee - Max did great as a guide and our driver was safe/professional. The guide, Max was sensitive to my wife’s disabilities. Max was multilingual too, knowing both Spanish and Russian, as do I. This was helpful, as I didn’t need to translate to Spanish for my wife. He could speak directly with her. The tour was great also because I preferred to relax and let someone else drive for a day. We felt safe and cared for as well, given the current conflict situation. The tour was timely, fun, and educational. It was a pleasure to experience what Israel’s northern Galilee region had to offer. We came to Israel to volunteer, as well as for sightseeing. We came to stand with Israel in this difficult time, and felt safe and fulfilled in doing so.” - Reviewed on 2024-07-24
