Hi Gil,

I am writing you following the wonderful day our family spent with you in Jerusalem last month. As you know, this summer marked our family's third summer adventure in Israel. We have seen and done so much with the kids. We challenged you with the task of providing us with a day filled with new experiences, adventures and knowledge. You rose to the occasion and we were in awe of the information you were able to share with us and your ability to relay it in a meaningful way for the whole family.

The day we spent in touring Gush Etzion was definitely a highlight for all of us. It continues to have an impact on all of us in so many different ways. You tailored an itinerary that met the diverse needs of our family. Our 20-year-old twin boys were physically challenged as we climbed the Herodian castle and hiked to the fresh water springs at Ein Mabua. Our 12-year-old daughter was inspired by her visit to Kever Rachel. My husband and I were thrilled to visit Hevron for the first time in years. You brought Israel's past and present together in a very meaningful way. I think the depth of the experience owes itself not only to the sites we visited but also to the insight and conversation you provided. You have a wealth of knowledge and share it so well. Thank you so much for introducing us to the Pinat Chama l'Chayal. We were so touched by the work done there to honour our soldiers.

Thank you for an inspiring and thought-provoking day. It was a great day in many ways and we wanted to thank you again for your excellent services as a guide. We look forward to having your input and insight when we plan our boy's Bat Mitzvah tour in a few years time.

Dear Gil,

Thanks so much for your condolences. Elise and I have thought often of the wonderful time we spent with you in Israel, the midnight trip to the Tomb of the Patriarchs, the wonderful Palestinian meal, the trip to Masada, and of course the Shabbat dinner. All wonderful memories. You have a special place in our hearts, and we look forward to meeting you again here or there.

Hi Gil,

Thanks for making our visit a memorable one. Going to Hebron was well worth it. Seeing the patriarchs' tomb was amazing, as was seeing the settlements on the west bank - I think I'm rethinking my opinions.
Seeing Jerusalem through your eyes was terrific. We enjoyed having our morning coffee in a Jerusalem caf�.
We'll definitely visit again, so keep in touch.

Hey Gil,

I'm sitting on the tarmac, waiting to go wheels up, reflecting on my remarkable, and transformational journey. I am very grateful that you were an integral part of this trip. My hope is that our paths cross in the not to distant future.
With warmest personal regards,
