Tomer and Daniel from Israel Extreme organized a number of activities for us across Israel. Walking tour of Jerusalem and the water tunnels of David’s City, a tour of Akko and Haifa, a geological jeep tour of the crater at Mitzpe Ramon, an astronomy/star gazing adventure in the desert, sand dune buggies and sand surfing in Nitzana, a hiking tour of Nahal Arugot and the Dead Sea and a high speed boat tour adventure at Rosh haNikra. Every single excursion they organized was exceptional. Every tour guide for each activity was an expert in their field and made each trip both fun and educational, catering both to the adults in our group and to our children of varying ages. We always felt safe and the vehicle transfers they organized were on time and professional. We have been to Israel many many times but this was our best trip ever—largely due to all the fun and unusual activities organized by Israel Extreme.
They were extremely flexible in our requests to tweak activities and the pricing was very fair in all instances. We are recommending this company to all our friends back home—they are in a completely different league from other tour operators we have encountered. Can’t wait to arrange our next adventures with Israel Extreme.

My boyfriend and I did the snapling, via fratta and rock climbing package (5h) and it was an extraordinary experience in beautiful northern Israel! Special thanks to our guide Moshiko - who was professional, calm, knowledgeable, and knows how to guide different people based on their abilities. He also actively takes pictures and videos for us throughout the day so we didn't need to worry about dropping our phones or ourselves;) And Moshilo made tasty black coffee with his camping tools during our break and we had a great chat looking over the valley. Would certainly recommend it for couples/families/friends who want to do some unique and adventurous activities! The pricing is at high end but we believe it was worth it:)

We used Israel Extreme for 2 of our adventures. We did a geopolitical jeep tour with Yaniv and the salt wonder caves with Benny. Both guides were amazing and full of knowledge.
Yaniv toured us through the city of Metulla and all along the Lebanon boarder. He was a wealth of knowledge and an excellent guide to have as he himself lives in Metulla and was able to give us an up close and personal account of what it is like to live and defend this area. We could have driven for hours with him listening to his stories and learning about the history and politics of the area. Do not miss this experience.
The salt wonder caves was the most amazing and adventurous excursion. This is not a tour for the faint of heart. The tour consisted of hiking, repelling into caves and and some points crawling on hands and knees. E prepared to get down and dirty for this tour. Our guide Benny was an absolute professional. We felt completely safe in his hands from start to finish. If you are looking for a once and a lifetime experience this is it. There are only two salt caves in the world so if you are visiting Israel and love adventure book this tour ASAP!!!
Aside from the tours, Israel Extreme was excellent to deal with. They were always available to communicate with and gave easy yet detailed instructions for what was needed for each tour, how to get there and who to contact if need be. We have told so many people about this company and when we are back in Israel we will 100% book with them again.

Yes, Benny and Yaniv are both experts in their respective fields. We only work with guides who meet our high level of professionalism.
The IDF Jeep tour you took with Yaniv is a unique experience. There is no way to understand the conflict without being there and seeing it first hand, and that is what this tour does - it brings you to the border to interact with IDF soldiers and seeing the incredible majesty of the Golan Heights, Hula Valley and more. But the tour is not all war talk, you see agricultural settlements, native flora and fauna, and geogrpahy of this unique ecosystem!
The Salt Wonder is pretty incredible, isn't it? A wonderful family adventure.
We are so glad you enjoyed yourselves and can't wait to tour with you on your next trip to Israel!

Me and my wife did the sunrise tour of the salt wonder on new years day. Our guide Guy was knowledgeable, safe and easy to chat to…we really can’t recommend him more highly.
We hiked up mount Sodom (lots of steps) before sunrise and sat at the top to watch the sunrise over the dead sea. Guy even whipped out a camping stove to make tea.
We then walked to a small opening in the top of the mountain and rappelled down a small 5m taster to a ledge, then about 80m into the dark. My wife was pretty scared of the rappelling and Guy talked her through it calmly and made her feel comfortable doing it (she now wants to take up climbing and abseiling back in the UK).
The cave was impressive and I think we did about an hour walking though it with just headlamps. Lots of crawling, crouching and bending around rocks and ending in a tight squeeze to arrive back at the car. Some of the route was quite a tight squeeze and involved ‘army crawling’ flat on our stomachs, There were lots of things to look at in the cave and guy had a detailed knowledge of the cave formation and was clearly very experienced in caving.
Israel extreme were excellent after we made the booking in ensuring that we had all the information we needed. We felt very safe the whole time during the activity and would highly recommend them as company and thankyou again to our guide Guy.

Israel Extreme organised a couple of days in the north of Israel packed with fun and excitement. Our guides Adar and Noam were engrossing with serious historical knowledge and we felt completely safe in their hands. Our main activities were Rappelling, Via Ferrata and Spelunking which were fantastic experiences that will be cherished by us. My teenage children particularly enjoyed chatting with the guides about their experiences growing up in Israel and other anecdotes from their travels. Further, both were fun, a pleasure to spend time with and were extremely helpful during our stay in the North.
In addition, Israel Extreme are very professional. My queries, I had plenty, were all answered clearly with supporting documentation in a timely fashion. We are frequent visitors to Israel but this was one of our best trips due to the activities organised by Israel Extreme. As such, I would highly recommend Israel Extreme and look forward to using their services again soon.

An unforgettable experience caving in a really rare and unusual cave in the north of Israel. Daniel from Israel Extreme took me and two kids (age 10 and 12) down into Abirim cave. It was an extraordinary and unusual experience - rappelling into a cathedral like cavern through a small opening in the rocks above and then exploring the stalactites in various sections of the cave. Daniel was amazing with the kids, really engaged them and was very skilled in conveying the seriousness of the adventure to the kids to make sure they followed all the guidelines of the tour. The experience of rappelling down into the cave and the rope-climbing up the cave felt very challenging, but Daniel knew how to guide us in this very new experience. He knew we could do it and gave us the confidence to do it. I had expected to feel really claustrophobic and uncomfortable in the cave, but I really didn't - it was just full of beauty from beginning to end. I am not very athletic or sporty, only average fitness and I had never been caving before, but I could still manage this experience very well, with the help of the guides. And the salamanders were amazing too. I highly recommend this amazing tour.

My teen sons and I did the Gilabun waterfalls rappelling. It was amazing! The guides were professional, friendly and at the same time let you get on with the rappelling with trust and little interference. There is a beautiful 15 minute hike between falls and then a 15 minute hike up hill to get back to the parking lot.
Highly recommended!!!

We are so happy that you enjoyed the hike a Nachal Jilabun in the magnificent Golan Heights! That particular hike offers a variety of paths so that the whole family can enjoy the hiking experience together. Everything from Extreme Waterfall Rappelling to simply hiking without rappelling!

After a 3 week trip covering Israel from top to bottom my wife, 14 year old teen, and I all agreed rappelling and hiking the Salt Cave was our favorite experience. This tour can be done by practically anyone. My wife and I are in our 40's/50's and not in the most athletic shape, but we successfully navigated the 30 minute climb up a bunch of stairs to the cave entrance, rappelled down 80 meters, and then hiked/climbed/crawled our way out of the cave. The cavern was beautiful, the cave hike was fun. This is NOT for people who can't handle heights or small spaces though. Rappelling was really neat and none of us had done it before. The cavern hike required a lot of maneuvering to get around salt formations and a few spots we had to crawl on our bellies while pushing our back backs in front of us. Wear pants and clothes you don't care if they get filthy. This was such a unique and awesome experience and we will never forget it. I can't imagine finding a tour this neat or unique ever again.

Shalom Sean! We had a great day with you all and hope we get to see you all again very soon! There is no such thing as an age limit with us! It's all about what your mindset is. Who knows - maybe we'll get to go skydiving with you next!

I was part of a group that did the Via Feratta, in Kibbutz Menara, what I was not aware of, was that my Asthma would make my life hell that day.
The guides were incredible! Calm and helpful, allowed me to continue at my own pace (slowly) whilst keeping my spirits high and making me feel better. They never once made me feel that I was holding anyone back or that I was not capable.
I would recommend Israel Extreme to anyone who is looking for a company one can rely on!
Thank you for a great trip (even though the end wasn't)

We did an awesome amazing hike in Ein Prat-Farah, Wadi kelt. Our group of 7 adults and teens met our guide at around 10am. Got a little lost, so make sure you get accurate locations with Google maps/Waze. Benny was our guide and he was great. We hiked through unbelievable trails, sides of canyons and streams. The scenery was gorgeous with amazing aromas of mint and herbs along the way, and the hike was about a 6/10 in intensity. We climbed small sides of cliffs with handrails and skipped over streams on small rocks. We sipped hot tea made by Benny at an amazing waterfall/stream. He navigated us through this hike with ease and it took about 4 hrs total. He drove us back to the starting point to pick up our cars that we left at the end point. All in all I would do this hike again. Plan on getting a little wet. We loved it.
