FOR FAMILIES
Family journeys
A private tour is the easiest way to see Israel with children: your own pace, breaks when you need them, and days built around what children actually love.
WHY PRIVATE WORKS FOR FAMILIES
Slow when you need it, quick when you can
With one guide and one vehicle, nobody waits for a bus schedule. If the youngest is asleep, we drive on and stop later. If everyone is enjoying the beach, the next site can wait. A day can be shorter, a stop can be longer, and lunch can be early.
We tell the stories at a child’s level, and at a teenager’s level, and give the adults their history. Tell us the ages and interests before the trip, and we build the days around them.
WHAT CHILDREN LOVE
Things to do, not only to see
Float in the Dead Sea
Children love the strangest swim of their lives. Towels, water and cold drinks wait in the vehicle.
Masada by cable car
A real fortress on a cliff, reached without a long climb, with a story that holds their attention.
An archaeological dig
In the caves of Beit Guvrin, children dig for real finds in a seminar led by archaeologists.
A camel ride
A short ride that nobody forgets, and a good reason for a photo.
An ATV ride in the Judean hills
For older children and teenagers, a ride through the hills where David met Goliath.
A boat on the Sea of Galilee
A wooden boat on the lake, and a swim or a snack on the shore afterward.
Jaffa and the Tel Aviv beach
Old stone lanes in the morning and the sea in the afternoon, the way a family trip should end.
Springs, streams and waterfalls
Gan HaShlosha, a natural spring pool, and the Banias stream with its hanging bridge.
A chocolate factory
A stop on the Golan with activities made for children, when the day needs a sweet break.
These are ideas, not a fixed list. We choose with you, and we add or drop stops as the trip goes.
THREE GENERATIONS
One trip that works for everyone
Grandparents, parents and children rarely want the same day. A private itinerary is built for exactly this: the vehicle keeps distances easy, we choose sites with level access or a cable car, and the day keeps teenagers engaged.

FROM FAMILIES WHO TRAVELED WITH US
In their own words
“We were privileged to have Dina as our private guide for our special family trip. Dina chose unique and impactful sites for us and tailored the experience for our family. She was always on time and shared her wealth of knowledge interchangeably in Hebrew and English. We saw places we never would have discovered on our own. A warm thank you Dina from us all.”
“We had toured with Dina on our first trip to Israel, and contacted her as soon as we knew we were going back. She arranged a wonderful itinerary to see things we hadn't seen before. She was careful to adapt things for our children, and even to change the schedule as the day went on. When my son asked about the water tunnels while we were in Caesaria, she arranged for us to go see one that afternoon!”
“Thank you Dina for an amazing private guide experience for our first time in Israel. You were incredible in creating an agenda that would be most meaningful for us that covered all parts of the country. Dina was also great with my two young kids (ages 6 and 7) and kept them entertained, engaged and informed in a way that was meaningful and educational for them.”
