* Gratuities
Whilst tipping is a personal matter, you need to be aware that Israel is a tipping culture, where gratutites form a significant proportion of the income of guides, drivers and hotel staff. People often ask us how much would be appropriate: we suggest £40 per person.
Flights
Luton to Tel Aviv.
The currently advertised schedule shows departure from the UK around midday.
Accessibility
We regret that we cannot take responsibility for looking after anyone who knows before they travel that they have serious problems of health or mobility. The terrain can be rough, but we shall not be walking great distances in the Galilee. However, exploring Jerusalem involves climbing a lot of steps.
All arrangements are subject to change.
