In December 2013 we traveled to Israel for the Bar Mitzvah of our oldest grandson – nine family members in all. Jan Goldstein and Amiel set up a wonderful trip for all of us. From planning – when Amiel cheerfully arranged, and sometimes changed, the itinerary to fit our expectations – through the trip itself, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the driver who met us at the airport and the Amiel representative who came to our first hotel to welcome our family, to a truly exceptional guide who shared his passion for and knowledge of Israel, we knew we were in good hands. We would happily recommend Jan Goldstein and Amiel for anyone planning travel! 

Our trip to Israel was so carefully planned. Very intentional planning of where we would stay, our meetings and site visits that not only highlighted an entire country in 10 days but also allowed us to see the beauty and challenges of such a small, powerful, and spiritual country. Our country.  Thank you to the Jewish Federation of Fort Worth & Tarrant County and to Amiel for making this a trip of a lifetime! 

I cannot adequately thank the Amiel Tours team for everything you did to put together an amazing family trip all over Israel for Benjamen’s Bar Mitzvah.

The itinerary and planning made this a positive experience for everyone. The trip touched us all on so many levels, that I do not have the words to adequately describe both the emotional and physical impact. Our trip to Israel was the most memorable, enriching, enlightening and emotional journey we ever could have imagined sharing not only with family, but also with our young children

Thank you for the experience and journey that resulted in a lifetime of memories.

Thank you so much for all your help. We had the best time!  

Shachar was the best guide we've ever had, anywhere, and we've had quite a few. He has such a great personality and made it seem like there was nothing he would rather be doing than spending the day with us. I just can't recommend him enough but I'm sure I'm not the first person to say that.  

My parents had a great time and I think it was such a worthwhile experience for them. My mother is always a trooper and my dad was able to enjoy himself too because of the scooter. Again, thanks so much for all your hard work.

I have to say the trip was really beyond my expectations! I do have to give credit to our tour guide, Sara, and driver, Danny. They became a part of our family and it turned out amazing. What do they say?...a trip can be great, but it's as great as your tour guide. I also have to tell you that our days were absolutely wonderful, just everything, I mean everything was perfect. It was a dream come true. To this day, I still say it was the trip of a life time. Thank you soooo much, I knew I was in the right hands.

Iris and the Amiel team in Israel were wonderful. Although we’re frequent visitors to Israel, we always look for something new. They found us an incredible boutique hotel in Tel Aviv which was delightful and which we never would have located on our own.  In addition, when my husband became ill during our trip, they were right there, helping us cancel and change reservations. It would have been so much more complicated doing this by ourselves. I highly recommend them whenever you are planning a trip to Israel. They will make it perfect

We want to thank the Amiel team for putting together such an amazing trip for our community. We could not have asked for a more wonderful experience.

When we began, we were looking for a unique Israel trip that would connect our participants to the history people, beauty, and culture of Israel through the exploration of food and wine experiences.

The itinerary was full of carefully selected experiences to engage both the first time and repeating participants, quality food and wine venues, great speakers and interlaced with some of Israel's most interesting historical sites. The guide and driver Amiel provided were incredible. The attention to detail by our tour manager who was on top of everything from the moment we arrived until we left the country, the careful planned organization and attention to detail reinforced our confidence that we had truly made the right decision in selecting Amiel.

As an experienced organizer of community trips to Israel, I can recommend to you Amiel Travel Services without reservation. Amiel provides all the services you will need to implement a happy, successful and memorable Mission: their itineraries are carefully and personally crafted with the needs and desires of your group in mind.  They are prompt in both preparation of and modification of details on the ground and have their staff present to serve your participants at important times during their visit. Besides being extremely professional, the staff at Amiel are a joy to work with.

I have worked with numerous travel agents over the past 30 years planning missions to Israel and Jan is by far the BEST! She and her team at Amiel Tours understands the purpose of the mission, what the group or family wants to do, and puts together a first class itinerary, with no detail not addressed. She truly understands from a professional and volunteer perspective how to make the trip to Israel a once in a lifetime experience, and she has NEVER let me down! She has worked with so many groups over the years, both big and small, and keeps current on new sites, people and places to enhance the Israel experience, whether it be first-time or returning visitors to Israel. I have recommended utilizing Jan’s services for many years, and would gladly speak to any group interested in utilizing Jan for a trip to Israel.
