Awesome George Best Guide in Israel!
George was an exceptional guide, best ever! Heart, intellect, Bible fluent, fun, witty, and caring of our needs! I have not witnessed anyone with such a firm grasp of the regions history and a joyful love of presenting it. We’ll cross again, as will my friends I pray.
