It was a great experience. The trip was on schedule and the guide Uval was fantastic. Funny and knowledgeable. We will definitely recommend this tour to others.
We are most appreciative of this rave review. Your sincere recommendation of our services is much appreciated . Yuval your guide is most worthy of the compliments for his skill and professional effort.
If you are a Christian, this is a must see! Jesus spendt most of his time in this area, performing a lot of miracles. The tour makes the Bible stories come alive. We were blessed with a most beautiful day and the weather was perfect! Our tour guide, Yousef, was very helpful and knowledgeable, I would highly recommend him.
It is wonderful to read that you came away with an enlightening and meaningful tour experience with our competent guide. Indeed you visited areas of biblical significance . Your sincere recommendation is most welcomed. thanks very much.
Fantastic tour, our guide Avivi (sp) was very knowledgeable and accommodating. We had poor weather and some site closures due to it being new years day, but they found a way to get us to all of the great ones. Especially meaningful was mount of beatudes during a mass, and the church of the annunciation. Thank you! Also note they were EXTREMELY flexible, as I couldn't make my originally scheduled day, they were kind enough to offer on a subsequent day despite having no requirement to do so. :)

Our guide, Benny was polite, informative and an excellent driver. I felt completely safe and taken care of. Thanks Benny.
Great to read that you felt safe and had a high standard tour experience travelling with Bein Harim.
Great guide, felt right at home. Hard to get in and out of seat due to broken arm rest. But that isn't the driver's fault
Sorry you suffered from this inconveneince. We are glad taht you felt comfortable with your guide and came away with a good experience
A very inspirational visit to some of the most historically significant biblical sites. Seeing Capernaum, the Sea of Galilee, and the Jordan River was truly unforgettable. The trip also offered the option to take part in a symbolic baptism at the traditional site where John baptized Jesus. Naturally, a second baptism is not a Christian sacrament, but a moving spiritual experience that deepened the connection to the place and its story. The whole day was well organized and my special thanks go to our knowledgeable guide Yuval.
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear how meaningful your visit to the Galilee and Jordan River was, and that the experience left a deep impression. The optional symbolic baptism is indeed a special moment for many travelers. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words to Yuval. We hope to welcome you again soon.
The destination is good, but I hope that you appoint a couple of Christian Tourguides , the most of us make these visits and trips in the footsteps of our Lord Jesus The CHRIST .
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We truly appreciate the importance and deep meaning these sites hold for many Christian travelers. While our guides come from diverse backgrounds, all are trained to provide accurate, respectful, and insightful explanations of the Christian story and its sacred places. Your comment is valuable, and we will certainly keep it in mind as we continue improving our tours. Thank you again for your thoughtful suggestion.
