Thank you so very much for an incredible trip!  From the first time we spoke about creating a customized trip for my 40th birthday with 7 of my friends to the moment we flew home, it was a wonderful experience.  Every day was flawlessly choreographed and executed, and all of the stress of planning and organizing was completely removed from my shoulders. 

There were so many memorable highlights throughout our 2 week trip through Israel and Jordan that it’s hard to pick a favorite.  We adored our Israeli guide, Eilon who had a way of connecting with each and every person on our trip.  He shared personal stories of his time in the army and experiences growing up on a kibbutz, which added so much more color and helped us to understand the history, culture, and people of the country.  We loved our days in Tel Aviv taking in the view of the Mediterranean, touring the beautiful Old City of Jerusalem and experiencing the Western Wall, our moving visit to Yad Vashem, the Caliber 3 experience learning from IDF soldiers, and our “unsinkable” swim in the Dead Sea.  We enjoyed our free time walking and shopping through the winding streets of Jaffa and Tzfat, and spending a few relaxing days in Eilat on the Red Sea.  Our 2 days in Jordan were equally memorable.  Once again we were in great hands with our guide Odeh for our breathtaking 4x4 ride through the desert of Wadi Rum and touring the incredible Rose City of Petra. We took in the culture, dining in a Bedouin camp and learned to make traditional dishes at Petra Kitchen.

I can’t thank you enough for your thoughtful attention to detail throughout the planning process and the trip itself.  You made this such a special trip for all of us, and I would absolutely recommend your services to anyone interested in visiting Israel and Jordan. 

​Ellen and I had an amazing trip​!​  All of our guides were great:  Yuval (our particular favorite), Auda (who asked us to say hi to you), Elon (Golan Jeep tour), and Yuri (Bike tour). ​Their knowledge and professionalism was top notch.​ We also thoroughly enjoyed our cooking experiences with Iris, Orly, and Petra Kitchen.  Lastly, we would say that our favorite restaurant meals were Touro and Adom, both of which were in Jerusalem.
 
Thanks again for all of your help.  If any of our friends ask us to suggest an Israel Travel Specialist, we will definitely give them your name!

We're home and finding it difficult to settle into a routine after such a fabulous trip.  You couldn't have done a better or more thorough job; the hotels you chose were perfect for us as well and the staffs at each of them very friendly and helpful. Thank you for the little welcoming gifts.

Everything we did in Israel was a highlight and all such different experiences. Our guide Elon asked us each day what we liked best of what we had seen and I never could give him a good answer because we loved it all.  Each day he conveyed his deep love for the country and pride in it as he talked about the history of the places we were visiting.  The jeep ride in the North was an eye opening experience putting into perspective the closeness of the borders.  We purchased a wonderful work of art in Tzfat, now hanging to remind us of our journey for years to come.  

We would have never had such a comprehensive tour not seen as much as we did without your help to facilitate and pull everything together!

​We cannot thank you enough for the perfection of this trip. Your kindness at each hotel! Your kindness to Jake. But most of all thank you for Lior! A diamond in all ways. He is a 10 star guide.​Your attention to details was flawless. The lovely treat of a foot massage for Laura and I was delightful. I will highly recommend you to all of my friends and family. If you need a potential client to speak with we are here for you.

Skot and I cannot find the words to thank you enough for this amazing trip you have planned for us.​ As you know this was our first trip to Israel and a trip that we longed to take for a while but were hesitant as I had reservations about our safety.​ ​That could not have been further from the truth.
When we arrived in Tel Aviv​,​ just as you said there was a VIP greeting us and that experience was so much more than we imagined it would be. We felt cared for as opposed to feeling lost and confused and were accompanied and assured and expedited in the most VIP fashion... Then​ we were​ taken to our car where our driver was wonderful and informative and took us right to Jerusalem to check into by far the most magnificent hotel we have ever stayed in! Being a retired flight attendant I have done a lot of traveling and stayed in a lot of hotels​; the Waldorf Astoria in Jerusalem definitely was a highlight!
The next day when we had the unforgettable pleasure of meeting our tour guide Eilon​,​ we had no idea that the next five days would be some of the most unforgettable days of our lives​.​
Eilon was everything and more you describe​d​ to us and nothing short of someone​ who​ we will never forget to have the pleasure of spending time with.​ He accompanied us to all of Israel's amazing places taught us about Israel's ​wonderful​ people and even took us to sample some of the most incredible places to eat. We would never have had an experience like that with any other tour​,​ for this we are certain! Every moment we spent together with him was a pleasure and an honor he is one-of-a-kind!​ ​Tel Aviv was another highlight and again​,​​Eilon showed us such an amazing time there....
To top it all off just as promised there was a VIP waiting for us at the airport on the way home to expedite us through the airport which could have been a very confusing and difficult process without this wonderful person.
Susan we will never be able to thank you for putting this trip together in this most professional and knowledgeable but also special way.​ We feel that we have such a more comprehensive understanding of Israel and its people and this was for sure a trip we will never forget for the rest of our lives​ &​ will always be grateful to all of those who made it so special!
We are eternally grateful!

We just returned from our trip to Israel and Jordan planned by Susan Weissberg and could not be happier.  Susan helped us plan the itinerary to encompass many of the unique sites the region has to offer.  It was laid out at a brisk but comfortable pace to allow us to see a lot but give us enough time to savor the experiences.  Every hotel was top notch and each transfer seamless.  The restaurants were diverse, interesting, and provided great value.  We went to Petra and Wadi Rum in Jordan at Susan’s suggestion and I cannot believe we would have missed these wonders without her guidance.  I could not recommend ​Susan​ and her local staff more highly.
 
I also want to say a few words about Lior our guide and driver.  He was warm, personable and knowledgeable.  He added depth and insight into every place we visited.  His planning and charm allowed us to see more than we could ever do alone.  He was clearly well respected by the employees at each site we saw.  He could sense innately when we needed down time and knew just what to do to keep our children (and us) engaged.  ​Lior​ is truly a one of a kind guide and a great ambassador for his country.  He added greatly to what was the trip of our lifetime.

​Susan created an experience for us beyond our imagination!​

I wanted to send you a quick email to tell you how we all loved ​the​ trip to Israel and Jordan. The trip was organized and well thought out with trying to to see all the major sites in Israel. Ari, our guide, was exceptional!​​ He was organized, friendly, and very informative about all the places we visited​ as well as being​ flexible if we wanted to stay somewhere longer,​ ​but kept to the itinerary as best he could so we were able to appreciate everywhere we went. The restaurants ​we chose together were great​,​ especially the one we went to ​on​ Friday night in Jerusalem. Everyone had a different highlight of the trip, but the most moving was Yad V​a​shem where our guide Miriam was informative and kept it on adolescent level where our children ​could​ really understand what happened years ago. ​The ​T​win​n​​ing​ ​Ceremony b​r​ought tears to our eyes. Meeting the soldiers in the Golan Heights and having it snow there was my favorite memory.  

​O​ur guide in Jordan, Audi, was also professional, informative, fun and just a​n​ all around great guy ​who​ really was proud to talk about his country. We enjoyed learning​ about​ both cultures in Israel ​&​ Jordan and came back with a new appreciation about the countries, their pride and their everyday fight to stay safe and be free. 

I would happily recommend your service​s​ to my friends and colleagues in the future when traveling abroad. Thank you for making wonderful memories for my family​!​
