With only one day in Israel, we made the wise decision to hire a private guide and thankfully chose Gily Dror who provided value added services even before we were in Israel. She recommended we download WhatsApp for better communications before our trip which I did, and with the MSC Musica cruise line's poor coordination with the port, we were grateful we'd taken her advise as she was able to find us and start the awesome tour without much problem. She had also personalized our tour in advance to include a delicious and memorable lunch on the beach of Acre at one of the best restaurants in Israel, which we will always treasure. Gily provided both history and perspective that was top notch, and with experiences unexpected but delightful. My husband and I really appreciated the advanced planning and time to insure that we had a great experience. I loved learning about the German Colony (photo of her explaining which included historic maps and pictures) and her special attention to have us celebrate our time together (being our 15th wedding anniversary) at the top of a famous German Colony hotel with an Israeli drink to solute our day together (additional picture). The Crusader, Knights Templer, and Ottoman ruins in Acre with the lunch and time in the market were exceptionally fun and enlightening. Thanks Gily! We would do another tour with you in a heartbeat, and find a friend in you.
