Summary: This review pertains to the 6-day Christian tour (not shown in the options provided) The Pros: The scheduling of these tours is very organized. There are daily tours for pretty much every single individual portion. The staff is very responsive and flexible in making accomodations. They also pay attention to how to remedy any issues and make sure satisfaction is a priority. The Cons: If you're a Christian and you're looking to go over these sites experiencing focused comments on the Christian side, this is NOT your tour. The guides, while knowledgeable, they don't share the same faith and the context of their comments are more historic in nature and not highly focused on Jesus' ministry and related bible events. The tours are assigned depending on who's doing what on a particular date. You don't get assigned a specific group nor guide to cover your journey, which makes difficult to have a consistent flow of events throughout your visits.

Summary: It was my first time in Israel and only had 10 days so not enough time to see all the sites but i enjoyed the ones I see. Bein Harim's tour guides were organized and informative. The are professionals and care for their customers. I would suggest you book with Bein Harim if you plan on booking your own tour in Israel. It's worth having a guide on certain tours. Do understand that some of the sites will take a long time such as church of the Holy Sepulchre (sp??) . You may not feel like you have sufficient time to be at the sites so IF you are passionate about a certain site on your trip to Israel, try and get a private guide for that site some to mention here (though not on this particular trip) are the Ein Gedi and Masada (i think you need at least 4 hours to truly see entire site) and Church of the Holy Sepulchre (if long line you could take 3 hours here)! All the guides Bein Harim guides were great but one I must give a Big Thank You to is AVIDSHAY (He is not shy though..lol). Avishay got us through border line without delay, Helped a family locate their missing family camera that had precious photos and managed our time well for each tour. He even took the time after the tour to detour and dropped me off nearby my drop off point :) God bless you Avishay as that was a MAJOR plus for me Hope this helped someone and thanks to Bein Harim for their professionalism.

Summary: I must say this company is one of the best. They leave on time and return on time. Also they ensure ones safety. While on bus the guides are so knowledgeable, friendly and very warm. I want to give a shout out to these guides: Sigal-family,Itamar and Omri,they are the best. I recommend Bein Harim tours a 1000%.
