About
Israel, the Land of milk and honey is certainly the perfect place for an enjoyable holiday. It has become an attraction for visitors from all over the world. Starting from Tel-aviv the city which never stops, its dynamism, energy not only attracts young people but families, the beach is great, the food one can get in various restaurants and cafes is incredible and also numerous facilities for visitors such as museums, various shops. However, Jerusalem is a jewel and even if you try hard you will never get the feeling that you have seen everything. The History follows you everywhere all over the country, there is always new excavations and discoveries in Archeology. The country is quite small and I can drive you everywhere so do not hesitate to come ... see you soon.

We were on a Silversea cruise and Nicole picked us up at the port of Ashdod.She has an engaging personality and was eager to use the skills and knowledge developed over many years as a guide. Were together in Jerusalem for one entire day and would recommend her very highly. She knows the small and less travelled ways to get easy access to difficult places. She is well known and obviously respected by the local merchants and others who live there. Very easy to be with and a knowledge of history as well as contemporary life. We would be fortunate to find someone like this on our other travels. Karen and David Freedberg NYC

Nicole is a very experienced tour guide. I had good communication with Nicole via email prior to out tour . Nicole sent me all the planned itinerary for the day. We knew where we were going to visit.
She brought us to Nazareth and Galilee in a comfortable air conditioned vehicle. There were five adults in total. Nicole told us the history of our sites and additional information.
It was a long day but it did not deter Nicole .
Our ship had rearranged the pick up for private tours in a different area of the port which caused confusion for all. However Nicole was contactable and found us.
She is ver knowledgeable. I would recommend booking Nicole as your guide for a truly unique personal experience

We spent 8 days with Nicole in November 2022. We were a group of 5 adults. We always felt very safe with Nicole. She was always very kind, ready to help and punctual. She drives very carefully, which is quite important to me. Her car is confortable enough for 5 (6 even) adult people. It was also very nice not to have to look for our way all the time and find a place to park.We had a wonderful tour through the whole country (no time to go to the desert, unfortunately).
Perhaps there is a small downside to the recent history of Israel, the 1947 partition, the conflicts, the Jewish settlements in the Arab territories, etc. I would have liked to learn a little more about this. In general, some of the explanations were sometimes a bit sketchy, and I would have appreciated a more in-depth discussion. But this is a personal opinion that not all my fellow travelers necessarily share.
Thank you Nicole

Nicole made Israel come alive for my family! She had historical insight and humor that made our visits to Jerusalem, Masada, and the Dead Sea amazing experiences. For anyone coming to Israel, Nicole will enhance your journey!

Nicole Samuel is a very informative tour guide. I had great communication prior to tour from Nicole regarding the tour via email..Nicole brought us to visit the wonderful sights in Nazareth and Galilee. She gave us lots of history and information and connections between sites.
It was a long day but Nicole had bundles of energy and kept us interested.
Nicole had very comfortable transport that was air conditioned which made the tour easy.
Our cruise ship rearranged different gates to exit causing great difficulty for private tours and relatives but Nicole was contactable and persistent and found us.
If you would like a guide who is patient and knowledgeable do not hesitate to chose Nicole.

Nicole was amazing. She designed a comprehensive tour all around Israel that included history, religion, culture, street art and great food recommendations. She is second to none. Our tour was seamless because of her gracious hospitality and knowledge of Israel.
She has a comfortable style, was flexible with changing our schedule on the fly depending on what we were interested in and by the end of the trip we felt like we had a new best friend.
She surprised us with some off itinerary gems like taking us to the Monastery at Wadi Kelt.
Her tour offers a great value. We would recommend her for your next visit to Israel.

We went with Nicole from Telaviv to Jerusalem and she picked us up at the hotel punctually and we had a good description of what to expect in Jerusalem. Nicole is extremely well informed and has a charming way to make you discover the town . She made us discover this wonderful city , stone by stone and church by church. In total we walked a lot and discovered a lot . We had lunch in old Jerusalem and continued our tour in the afternoon. We were finally back at the hotel for dinner and had a super nice day with lots of fruitful discussions and a lot of insight from Nicole’s long experience. Thank you again

Hello, I'm going to Israel on December 12 and I'm interested to buy your tour, however I heard that the Sea of Galilee, Capernaum and the Jordan river may be closed in some dates of December. Do you know something about that? Or can I go on and book your tour?
Thank you,
