A few words from those who know us best

Karen and Zvi,
It was so wonderful catching up with you both in Iceland! I had such a fantastic time – the whole trip was amazing, from the breathtaking scenery to the incredible experiences. But honestly, the best part was getting to know you both better. Those meals and chats on board were a real highlight.

We felt incredibly safe and well-cared-for throughout the entire trip. Thanks again for everything! We’re really looking forward to hearing more about that Tahiti trip. We’ll definitely be recommending Brit Olom Tours to our family and friends – you guys are the best!

Thanks again, and we hope to travel with you again soon!

You both did such a great job with all our arrangements for Iceland not just us but entire group. Setting aside time to break bread together, socialize, check on their traveling and sightseeing, arranging transportation and special times to avoid unforeseen crowds and time delays and personalizing the trip with special gifts and just your good will and kindness for all.

So thank you for making this memorable in so many different ways. It was enjoyed by all of us and we are most appreciative and grateful. Can’t wait to start the next planning phase …. Hopefully for 6 and 3 rooms !

Respectfully and fondly,

Truly exceptional! Karen helped me plan a luxury multi-generational trip to Italy over the Christmas holiday. She booked our flights, transportation, tours, and dining. Everything was seamless and easy. Our guides were knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly friendly. Every meal Karen planned exceeded our expectations – I actually cried when I saw the stunning view of Rome from our table for Christmas brunch. If want to plan a worry-free and fabulous vacation look no further – there is no one else I would recommend. Thank you, Karen, for helping my family create memories that will last a lifetime!

Europe and Maldives Honeymoon

I can’t thank you enough for a once in a lifetime tour and trip to Israel. You two are amazing at making an entire group feeling cared for completely. I was so impressed how you handled Joanie and Pat’s limitations. Also, how you handled a mixed group of religions and exposure to a mixed part of Israel. The accommodations and dinners were just right. I especially loved the last night’s dinner. What a diverse combination of experiences from soup to nuts. I’m happy to be home but feeling a certain melancholy about eaving a country you and Yuron helped me fall in love with. Not sure how many of the group I’ ll actually see again but the memories of our short term friendship will live on for sure. Thank you again for your guidance, your love, your family type aura and of course your expertise in travel to this magnificent country.

Mr. and Mrs. Zvi Krugliak, We can’t even begin to express to you how grateful we are for everything you have done for us! We were both so happy you made it to the wedding and had the opportunity to share in our special day. We had a great time at the wedding and hope you did also! The honeymoon was absolutely amazing, we are still in shock from the whole experience. Your gifts were so wonderful and everything went perfectly! We really couldn’t have asked for a better way to start our life together, and you had a huge part in that. We will never forget everything you did for us, and hopefully we will see you both again soon! Thank you again so much!!! The newlyweds –

Honeymoon

Dear Zvi, I am writing this letter just to let you know what a wonderful time we had on the trip to Israel. It was so well organized and the Hotels that you arranged for us were just beautiful. The food was first class. I do not think we missed an important historical place or landmark from the Golan Heights to Eilat. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and very patient with the group, as he answered all questions that were asked of him many times. The transportation that was provided was very comfortable. Our driver was very pleasant and quite skilled. Some of the benefits of this trip that were not mentioned in the brochure are that we met new people and made some new friends. Overall, we are looking forward to booking other adventures with you. Once again, we wish to say thank you for a wonderful Israel experience. Sincerely,

Ashley & Rheva Carlins – Brooklyn, New York

Dear Zvi,I am writing to you to thank you for the wonderful trip I recently took to Israel. Let me start by telling you that I have been on many trips throughout the United States and internationally. I have never been on a trip that was so thoughtfully created and executed. It was all in the details. Because of the thoughtful extra touches you provided, it was truly the best experience I have ever had. The expertise of the guide was beyond exemplary, the entertainment you provided, and the places you chose to take us truly made this experience one I will always cherish. So thank you for taking me to a country I was truly afraid to go to but making it an experience I will never forget. I have told many people about how amazing a trip you created. I wish you much happiness and succes

We really enjoyed our visit to Israel with Brit Olom Tours. It was much more than we expected. The fact that Zvi was with us all the way and took care of any concerns added immeasurably to our comfort. Our tour guide Yishay was excellent. The depth of his knowledge was incredible. The trip was enlightening and inspiring. We thank you for a job well done. The tour was all that you said it would be.
