Private Guide 3 days in Israel

[tanny18]

Would appreciate names of reliable, knowledgeable private tour guides for 3 days in Israel when we sail on Nautica May 2011. I know I'm going to get dozens of answers from the wonderful CC people out there. ;)

Thanks. Arlene

We were on Nautica in 2009 and used Dina Horn. She was wonderful! She stayed with us for 2 days, as we overnighted at the Dead Sea. She's one of the very best guides we've ever had anywhere. If you contact her, tell her that Jeff and Randy recommended her.

I've been to Israel a dozen times. Contact David Bellin at dbellin@actcom.co.il. He is great, english speaking, totally knowledgeable, and makes the country come alive. I strongly recommend him. If he has not been available, he has other guides who work for/with him, and they are equally great. Good luck, Paul

Gail, we will have to compare Israeli guides when we meet on Insignia. We visited Israel on an Oceania Nautica cruise the summer before last and used a guide named Dina Horn (dinatouring@gmail.com). She was outstanding -- we couldn't have been more pleased. Dina took us through Jerusalem, then we stayed off the ship at a hotel on the Dead Sea, then took us the next day to Masada, Ein Gedi, and Nazareth. Israel is top of the list of places we would like to return to.

We used Martin in November 2009 with 2 days in Israel from the Regatta. Excellent and knowledgable. He has a passion for what he does.

I just returned from a trip and had good luck with a licensed tour guide named Ali. His phone number is +972(0)50-5294140 and e-mail is aliarad@walla.com. His website is here: http://www.dead-sea-tour-guide.com/ and has pictures of Ali and the vehicle he used. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and spoke excellent English. I would use him again.
