An Exceptional Journey: 5 out of 5
★★★★★
“ We recently took the 5-day Israel tour package offered by Compass and it was an absolutely amazing experience. From start to finish, the tour was expertly planned and executed, with every detail thought out and taken care of. The accommodations were top-notch (upgraded), and the transportation was comfortable and efficient. The itinerary was packed with interesting activities and sights, including visits to historical and religious sites, as well as some beautiful natural scenery. Our tour guide was a wealth of knowledge and made the experience even more enjoyable with their enthusiasm and passion for the destination. I appreciated the small group size, as it allowed for a more personalized experience. The tour offered a perfect balance of free time and structured activities, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the culture and history of Israel. I can't recommend Compass enough for their 5-day Israel tour package. They truly know how to showcase the best that the destination has to offer. It was an incredible trip, and I would give it a 5 out of 5 stars.”

Unforgettable Experience from Haifa Port
★★★★★
“ We recently went on a private tour of the Nazareth and Galilee area with Avi from Compass as our guide, and I have to say it was one of the best tours I've ever taken. Avi was an exceptional guide - knowledgeable, personable, and passionate about the area. He went above and beyond to make sure we had an unforgettable experience. From the moment we met Avi, we knew we were in good hands. He has a wealth of knowledge about the history and culture of the region, and he shared it with us in an engaging and interesting way. He was also very accommodating and attentive to our needs and interests. He was able to tailor the tour to our specific wants and needs. Avi took us to some truly breathtaking sights and was able to provide in-depth information and context for each location. He was also great at making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed throughout the day. I would highly recommend Compass to anyone looking for a private tour guide in the Nazareth and Galilee area. He is an expert in his field, and his love for the area shines through in everything he does. He truly made our tour an unforgettable experience and I'm sure it will be the same for anyone who chooses to tour with Compass Travel Israel”

“ El viaje lo realicé con mi hermana. Para nosotros fué una experiencia maravillosa. Tuvimos la suerte de tener un Guía Turistico muy especial, con dedicación y amor por lo que hace. Enseñar la Ciudad Santa para Saúl es compartir un tesoro es una peregrinación. Pudimos percibir su sensibilidad y gozo por su trabajo. Gracias Saúl!!! Estoy muy agradecida con la Agencia Compass por hacer posible enriquecernos espiritualmente con este viaje. Todo es muy bien escogido: hoteles - comida - guias - conductores, lo más importante es que nos hicieron sentir seguras en todo momento a pesar de estar muy lejos de nuestro hogar.”
