Kind words

Tamar,

I need to echo Jonathan's words of gratitude!!!! But there truly is no way we can possibly thank you for the trip of a lifetime.

We have never experienced anything as educational, emotional and downright fun :) with our kids. We felt so at home, it's never been harder to end a vacation.

Dear Tamar,

It was a great pleasure to have you with us on the trip.

Our Israeli experience could not have been this wonderful without you.

Like I said, if you ever come down this way, do not hesitate to let me know... you are welcome any time.

And I will definitely let you know if we have any good clients going your way...

Thank you again and hope to see you some time soon.

Tamar,

What will we do without your 6:30am wake up calls, your yalla yallas, your vast knowledge of our country delivered with passion and humor, your last minute change of plans adjusted with grace and ease, your perfectly curled hair, your restaurant finds in the middle of nowhere, your sababas, your "I don't take shit from no one...especially Elliott" attitude and most of all your warmth and contagious smile????

Thank you for creating an invaluable memory for us and our children...these past nine days will forever be a part of all of our lives and we are forever grateful.

Hi Tamar,

Thank you so so soo much! We both had an amazing trip. You made it an amazing experience for both of us! You were such an outstanding guide. You are so talented at what you do. You managed to teach us more than we learn in a whole school year in just 9 days (And still kept it interesting). You made us feel so connected to Israel and Judaism and made us want to come back (hopefully really soon!)

Thanks for the best trip we've ever taken!

Tamar,

There are no words to describe our fantastic trip. And it's all your fault!!!

The kids (and us) took home so much of the country, and they definitively gained +1 year's worth of secular and non-secular education crammed in one week. Mission accomplished.

We are already planning our next trip.

Hi Tamar,

I can't thank you enough for showing us such a wonderful time in Eretz Yisrael. Even so, our time spent with you was magical. I am so looking forward to returning and of course we will contact you!

I almost feel like you are a sister to me even after knowing you for just a few short days.

Tamar,

We all agreed that it was a wonderful trip and enlightening experience mainly because of you! You are such a delight, so organized and enthusiastic, so knowledgeable, sensitive, with so much energy and wisdom. You are also very perceptive and persuading, and now I have run out of words to describe you! I cannot imagine having a better experience or a different guide. I truly miss seeing your smiling face everyday and looking forward to what new things we would see and do each day.

I have raved about you to all my friends and family.

Thank You and (not) Goodbye :)

I will think about you every time someone asks me about my trip to Israel. I will think about you every time I tell a story of our travels. I will think about that long drive to and from Masada and the Dead Sea and how we three just laughed along the way. We might be Your Girls, but you are Our Tamar. We are taking pieces of you back with us in our memories, and in exchange we have given you pieces of ourselves. I think that is a fair trade since I can't stuff you in a suitcase and take you with me. I have thought about it. Pretty sure someone would notice.

I will miss you.

Hi Tamar,

Arnold and I again want to thank you for our most memorable journey. Your knowledge, insight, and company was above and beyond our greatest expectations. We had often been told, until you actually step foot in Israel, one can never really know what it means to be Jewish. How true! I can say now, we have never been prouder of our Jewish heritage, and the country from which it stems. You played a large roll in instilling those feelings in us.

Your name will most definitely be passed along to all "nice" people we know who want to visit Israel.

Tamar,

First, I wish to thank you for making two of my last three days in Israel so memorable. You helped connect me to my spiritual journey in more ways than you will never know.

I wish you well.
