CAGreat tour with potential to be even better Fun tour. Excellent guides. Great highlight of the country and history with a good mix of kid- friendly activities (kids really bonded by the end of the trip). Would value having a welcome gathering for everyone (not just bar mitzvah kids) on the tour. Would be best to do one at the start of the tour (morning/ day after arrival). With 2 buses and approx. 60 people on the tour, it is a shame we didn't meet many of the others until the last day of the trip. Would be great also to have a list of other group members before the tour even started so connections could have been made earlier. The food was delicious and accommodations good. Having live Israeli music at some part of the trip would be a wonderful addition, plus would like dinners to be less rushed (not so mass market feeling). Also think each family on tour-- or at least bar mitzvah kids --should be provided (no fee) with a bag of mud at the dead sea. All in all a strong 4- star trip, with some more attention to detail/ tweaking could be even better!

GBLoved the trip Loved the trip! The itinerary was fantastic and really kept us moving. We were able to see and do so much. Best of all was our tour guide Natalie. She was very kind, patient and extremely knowledgeable on every aspect of Israel.

GBOur son’s Bar Mitzvah Tour through IBMT… Our son’s Bar Mitzvah Tour through IBMT was perfect!!! The tour guide was incredible, the itinerary was everything we could have hoped for and the Bar Mitzvah was magical. Ornan was a pleasure to work with.

GBWe had an amazing time on our tour We had an amazing time on our tour. Our tour guide, Gadi was awesome from the start. He was a wealth of information and very warm and friendly. IBMT is wonderful in the fact that it is a small group experience, not bus loads of people like some other tours. We made friends for life on our tour and memories to equal that. It was a wonderful trip. My kids had a great time which is all that matters in the end.

GBIBMT organized such a wonderful bat… IBMT organized such a wonderful bat mitzvah experience for my niece that I had to do my daughters through them as well. Thankfully, the tours changed enough for both to be fantastic. I recommend them highly.
