Dear Elisha and Merle,
Thanks once again for another great trip with your company, this time to Italy. As you both know, this was my third tour with Heavenly Tours. Wow, they seem to just get better and better. I can not begin to explain just how much I appreciate all you do for the people on your tours. To move that many people from one place to another and for it all to work so smoothly is a gift and you make it look so easy. The meals in Italy were five stars, the tour guides five stars and the sites five stars. Do I need to say more? One thing that always makes me sad is when the trips are over. I love all the people that helped to make my trip very special every time I go with you. Thank you so very much.
God Bless,
Dear Brother Elisha,
Boker Tov!
I must take this opportunity to thank you and Heavenly Tours for all you have done for our recent trip to the Holy Land and Egypt. It was a wonderful trip. Although I had been to the Holy Land in 1995, I’m glad I returned because I had forgotten some things, and other sites had changed somewhat. The tour guide and bus driver were wonderful, the accommodations were great, and the food was wonderful! We thank these gentlemen particularly for the love and kindness they extended to everyone, particularly the children on the tour.
Every site was great; yet, there were two places that touched me more spiritually: the baptism in the Jordan River and the Holy Communion Service in the Garden. The peace in those two places was amazing. For all the media promotion of discord and death, this tour provided an entirely different experience for me and the other members of the tour.
The tour of Egypt was awesome as well. Some of us were taken aback by the aggressive Egyptians trying to sell so many things. Some merchants would not take “No” for an answer. However, the sites were magnificent. We all agreed that we needed to take more time in Egypt next time.
Jan was a great asset to the trip. We cannot thank her enough for her help and support. We love her and miss her already.
Thank you again for everything.
God bless you richly!
Thank you SO much for the incredible experience your business provided! This tour through Israel was so much beyond our expectations!!! My husband and I both have traveled quite extensively- but this has to be one of the most amazing trips we have ever been on! We saw and experienced so much! We are grateful for your business, and for the passion you have that allows your clients the most ultimate traveling experiences!
For a long time a great fascination of an ancient culture had drawn me to tour Egypt. How can you come to terms with a people who seemed only to live to prepare to die and who worshiped gods with heads of animals, reptiles and even insects? Never was an impression more wrong. The reality of life from tomb paintings made 4000 years ago showed a culture with such love of life, they didn’t want it to end. Although intrigued by its monuments, my memory of Egypt will be of its people and their way of life. I found Egypt to be a juxtaposition of ancient and modern: a camel jockey with a cell phone; Cairo’s heavy traffic slowed by donkey carts.
The tour by Elisha and Merle of Heavenly International Tours proved to be expertly planned. The hotel rooms and the cabin on the Sonesta Nile Goddess were excellent. The planning with the Egyptian “Travel Plus” tour company made the connections to all the sight seeing locations flawless. Soha, our guide, displayed great knowledge and patience with my many questions on the history and culture of the Egyptian people. Much more was included in this trip than was listed in the tour itinerary. Unforgettable are the sights of daily life, such as men puffing away on water pipes on the streets of Alexandria, or the timeless Nile River scenery from the deck of our vessel. Words cannot describe the staggering experience of my fingers tracing stone carved hieroglyphics in temples made thousands of years ago.
My trip to Egypt in 2008 brought not just fond vacation memories, but unbelievable experiences that left a powerful personal imprint. A longtime dream was fulfilled, leaving only the desire to visit Egypt again.
Dear Elisha and Merle,
Thank you for the MANY ways you expressed your professional and personal courtesies to us on our Israel trip. The books, the Sea of Galilee rock and meal with you all made the trip a wonderful experience. My mother is telling people it was the greatest trip of her life! Margie and I both believe the trip was even better than 9 years ago and we loved it then. Thank you for ALL you did to make it so special for us.
You and Merle are special to us. If you ever need anything, please know you can always count on us to be there for you. We look forward to seeing how God will lead us to another trip in the days ahead.
Gratefully,
