Testimonials

I cannot put into words what a great experience we had with Yariv Hen and Israeli Guide Ltd. Yariv is incredibly knowledgeable and provided wonderful insights. My family learned so much from Yariv. But even more than that - Yariv is a truly special person and we are so thankful and fortunate to have been able spend time with him. Yariv and his team were very patient with us and worked with us to come up with an exciting itinerary - and happily made changes prior to arrival and during the tour itself to accommodate our many requests. The vehicle was comfortable and kept meticulously clean - vacuumed each night. Having been on many tours in Israel I can say this was the best. I cannot wait to tour again with Yariv!!!

If you are traveling to Israel, you MUST hire Israeli Guide for your private tour. My husband and I were so fortunate to have Yariv as our guide. He made our experience in Israel powerful, emotional and magical! His knowledge of history at each site was incredible. He brought each location to life for us with his heartfelt and colorful stories. Through our travels he gave us a rich insight into the people and culture of Israel. .His warmth and charm made it a pleasure to be with him on every moment of the tour. He exceeded all expectations and I give him the highest of recommendations!

Our guide Eli(prounced ellie) was awesome. Extremely knowlegable, informative and great sense of humor. Knew hwere the crowds were and avoidable them for the most part Extremely adept at getting in and out of parking spots that were ridiculous. His heart is in his job and his energy was amazing Would recommended him without reservation. Sivan in the office was extreemly accomadating and very sweet

Yariv came highly recommended to me by a friend who used him 3x in the past. He did not disappoint but my only regret is that we didn’t utilize him the for the entire duration of our trip to Israel. Yariv emailed us ahead of our meeting to let us know what to expect, what to wear, and ask for any specificities we might want for our trip. He was super informative and gave us a tremendous amount of information yet at the same time made it fun and interesting for my 11yo son. He also took us to dine at a couple of little obscure restaurants that proved to be some of the best meals on our trip. We would use Yariv on any subsequent trips and would definitely refer him to anyone looking for an expert guide.

I would like to add a short testimonial to the website:

Yariv was recommended to us by a friends who had used Yariv’s services some months before. From the moment of the pick up at the airport, I felt that we were in the hands of a professional and experienced tourist guide!

Our airport reception was VIP with no fuss, no standing in lines or delays.

We quickly discovered on our tour that Yariv has exceptional historical knowledge of the area. He made our trip always interesting and informative. Our arrival at tourist sites were easy and hassle free. Our two young children (11 and 9) couldn’t wait for the next day to see what Yariv had in store. He is great with kids and kept them interested and entrained throughout. His sense of humour and interesting anecdotes made every day fun and exciting. The sites that Yariv planned were well thought out and included local restaurants and markets.

Yariv made our trip an unforgettable experience with everything to offer and will use his services again without hesitation.

Private tour of Tel Aviv/Jaffa/Latrun
My family - husband and two daughters ages 21 and 24 just got back from a private tour of Tel Aviv/Jaffa/Latrun area. Our tour guide Eli was fantastic - from before the tour to the day of the tour he was very accessible. His English is perfect.

His tour was wonderful!! His knowledge of history was extensive. He was very engaging - no one was bored at all! He had a great personality as well! All of us have been to Tel Aviv before - yet we all learned a lot of new things and saw many new places! It was a well organized tour and well paced. He was very accommodating to our particular needs/wants.

The tour company from the start ( In the US by email and phone) and in Israel, has been easy to work with, extremely accessible and very accommodating as well.

I would definitely recommend Eli and the tour company!

I went to a tour with a group of peers from Germany. Yuval was at his best the whole day, from meeting us in Tel Aviv till the last goodbyes in the hotel in Tel Aviv. Seems like he knows everything about the Holy City - the history, all the must-visit places, modern history and hipster cafes. Yuval is very communicative in all the languages (German, English, Hebrew and even Arabic). He's highly recommended for small groups (and probably for big ones as well)

Enjoyed the tour last week (May2019). Went on tour with two colleagues, all of us from USA. Tour company setup easy experience to connect to bus and tour the Holy City. Guide was awesome, explain and describe all sites right from the beginning on the bus through the end. Since our tour was 1/2, the Tour Company arrange for Taxi back to TLV from Jerusalem, Guide was ready for this and ensured we made it to the taxi personally. Good times and great experience. Expect much walking and plan to hydrate often.
