What my tourists say:
...We especially enjoyed the company of our guide, Yael Shilo. She really contributed to our overall enjoyment of the trip and we both felt lucky to be guided by her.
Lora Grady, Canada
As always, you were wonderful, flexible, knowledgeable and everything we could want from a friend/tour guide. You were generous with your time and so personable. Truly, I appreciate all you did for us.
Lisa Wahbe, USA
We think about our trip to Israel and you often, and thank you again for making our visit to your country very memorable. I forgot to tell you how much I am enjoyed the CD you gave me. It is lively and reminds me of us in the car with our arms raised in joy during the songs. Thank you for giving it to me.
Marlene Kniveton, USA
We have many fond memories of travelling your country with you, and look forward to returning. You brought your remarkable land alive for us in a very special way, and we are most grateful for that.
Fond regards,

Shalom Yael!
Wir möchten uns nochmals herzlich bedanken für Deine netten Führungen durch Israel.
Es war extrem interessant und sehr lehrreich.
Wäre schön, wenn sich unsere Wege nochmals kreuzen würden.
Alles Liebe,
Corinne & Vanessa Gross, Switzerland
Auch wenn es schon Monate her ist, so erinnern wir uns doch sehr gern an die super Führung durch das wunderbare Jerusalem. Gerade jetzt im regnerischen norddeutschen Novemberwetter, wären wir gern wieder in Deinem Land.
Matthias Krebs, Germany
Just wanted to thank you for a wonderful week in Israel. You showed and taught us so much and we are so happy about the positive feelings the kids brought home from the trip. All three of them are talking about returning for a Birthright trip.
(...) In addition to being a great tour guide, you were a great photographer at the Bar Mitzvah.
Sue Schapiro, USA
Du erinnerst Dich sicher an Yael; sie hat die österreichischen
Seminargruppen immer bestens betreut und war in jeder Hinsicht eine kluge, erfahrene, politisch
und kulturell versierte Begleiterin, und das nicht nur in Jerusalem; wir waren mit ihr wiederholt auch
am Toten Meer, in Tel Aviv, im Norden, En Gev usw. Ich bin überzeugt, dass Deine Freunde mit ihr sehr zufrieden sein werden.
