We had about 40 people on the bus and all were extremely friendly. The bus made a 20 minute stop on the way down & back so we could stretch our legs and get a snack. Dinner was at Plain and Fancy, an Amish style restaurant where we ate as much as we wanted. We stayed at AmishView Inn & Suites, clean and great staff with a fantastic buffet breakfast. This is all included in the trip costs. The next morning we stopped at an Amish Bakery where I picked up some fantastic Cinnamon Buns to take home. Then we went to the Theater to see the show. I have to say it was the most impressive show I've ever seen, including Broadway shows. Throughout the trip, Cathy kept us informed about everything, giving us tips on what to look for. Throughout the trip, George our driver would have my walker ready as soon as I stepped off the bus. I can't think of anything to complain about, staff were helpful, fun and informative and truly added to making this a memorable experience.

I am sorry to be writing this letter but feel I have no choice. The repair work that was done on my…read moreRuth Duckworth sculpture is extremely disappointing and frankly unacceptable. I went into this with realistic expectations. I did not expect to see a completely invisible restoration, but when I finally had the opportunity to inspect the "restored" piece I was shocked by how crude the work was. The section that was reattached does not align properly with the section it had been broken off from, at the joint line they are two different heights. The wide and boldly visible bond line between the two sections is very distracting and its surface is irregular and unsightly At the edge where the two pieces connect there is an open area that's missing material. I have shown images to two longtime museum restoration experts I know and asked for their opinion. They were reluctant to critique another restorer's work but in spite of their professional reticence one said, "That this could look much better." The other restorer noted "it should have been possible to achieve a far less visible (though not invisible) joint." I came to the Williamstown Art Conservation Center after speaking with other restorers who said the size and weight of the sculpture put the job beyond their comfort zones. The poor quality of repair work displayed on the Duckworth seems to indicate that the Williamstown team should have said the same. It would have saved me a great deal of time and money as well as avoiding WACC having a very unhappy customer. Now I need to find a more knowledgeable person who will first have to undo the work the Williamstown team has done before they can improve and bring the sculpture to a presentable condition. The Williamstown Art Conservation Center has an excellent reputation, but this very disappointing repair certainly does not live up to it. Douglas Heller Heller Gallery NYC

We have just returned from ten fabulous days in Israel, thanks to your organization…read more I particularly want to acknowledge three of you. First off, Pam Pearlmutter, our trip planner, was incredible in creating a memorable tour that included all of the important, and even some of the lesser-but-no-less interesting, sites. What I truly appreciated was the ease in dealing with her, her availability and ability to change her initial plans to suit and accommodate our wishes, and the diversity of the sites on the trip that pleased ALL of us: we were seven traveling on a private tour. Pam has been to Israel many times and knew about places and opportunities that we would never have been aware of, were it not for her! THANKS, Pam! Second, in addition to the incredible sites, the trip came to life because of our tour guide--DAVID LESHNICK, an American-born Israeli citizen/educator/administrator and fundraiser, now incredible tour guide, whose wealth of knowledge and ability to impart it to ALL of us (ages 6 to umpteen!) was a feat in itself. Warm, inspiring, a teacher/story-teller/passionate Israeli enthusiast, with a ready smile, an even disposition--even when our youngest members were tired and trying at the beginning and end of some days, with a sweet sense of humor, and an obvious desire to make us love his adopted country the way he does. The breadth of his knowledge and the way he conveyed so many different aspects of past, way past, and present history, his broad information about all of the places we visited, and his welcome desire to take us all by the hand and show us his country in a realistic and loving way--with all of its problems and all of its triumphs. "Awesome" was the way our ten-year-old described him. Our six-year-old learned SO much from him, obviously enjoyed his sense of humor, and at the end of the trip drew a fairly accurate map of all of the places we had been, naming them and placing them where they belonged on the map: the Red Sea, the Dead Sea, the Mediterranean, the countries surrounding Israel, and so on. We were all impressed by how much HE got out of the trip. And on the day when the 10 and 13 year old were having a somber but memorable experience at Yad Vashem, he and I were dropped off and later picked up at the Jerusalem Zoo where we had a terrific time! From the moment we met up with David--and our driver ASAF COHEN (who was also so accommodating and friendly and helpful)--we felt comfortable and so well taken care of. David also suggested some alternative and additional places to visit that were not included on our initial plans, and we loved every place he took us to. I cannot say enough good things about our guide and driver. They were perfect! Lastly, I want to thank Ayelet Tours for making the trip so easy and enjoyable. Your organization arranged for us to be met at the airport by one of your representatives who led us in the large, complex airport to our nearby private bus that took us where we had to go. The same occurred as we exited the country--led by one of your representatives who made our leaving Israel easy and effortless! And when we wanted to make additional/alternative plans to what was on our itinerary, our guide called your office, and it was done! We thank you for all you did to make our trip the BEST EVER! As for our favorite experiences, hard to say. We truly enjoyed it all! Memorable, all of it! THANK YOU.

On September 25th, 2025, the CDC declared a Level 2 alert abut a mosquito borne disease (Chikungunya). I discovered the alert via a former Cuban doctor in early November.

Ayelet refused to take any responsibility for not notifying me of the alert and refused to offer any form of refund. Instead, they told me that I would be fine and essential to ignore medical advice. I will never travel with a company that hides information, takes no responsibility, and pretends to be an expert on my medical condition.

Shortly into my arrival, the hotel DEMANDED that I fork over my credit card, with an open line of credit, for the hotel to charge as it saw fit for ïncidentals," which they declined to define. I refused. And then the manager - possibly the most wicked woman on the planet, began to furiously knock on my door, while I was sound asleep, demanding my card or she would call the police. I told her I would gladly depart with a refund. She refused to refund me the three unused nights I pre-paid, AND THEN CALLED THE POLICE. I had to rush to my room, the key to which she had deactivated- locking me out and my dog in- and rush to gather my life's belongings. And I accidentally knocked one of their shi@ty paintings off the wall because the space between the bed and the wall was barely a foot wide, and the frame broke. I was tossed out into the cold, and Expedia refused to refund me because they could not find my reservation number. SEVEN MONTHS LATER, I WAS CHARGED WITH AN E FELONY FOR "DAMAGING 3K OF ARTWORK," AND MY CREDIT CARD WAS CHARGED THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS. I WAS THROWN IN JAIL AND DRAGGED BEFORE A JUDGE IN SHACKLES. THIS IS HOW THE HAMPTON TREATS PEOPLE. AND THIS IS THE STORY THE GRAND JURY WILL HEAR. BOYCOTT THE HAMPTON. Oh, and if you do stay, use your phone to sweep for infrared cameras.I found plenty.

We crossed paths with his better looking brother Anthony Toni Pierce leading another group. Everything was a five star experience. The longer travel days was broken up by small town and pub visits to make the travel less tedious. Again Jimmy made point of interest stops that were relevant to our 65 age group, Whenever he dropped us off to wonder in a town for a few hours he said "Ill find you" and by goodness he would walk up just when our allotted time was winding down. There is something for everyone in Ireland. The people are exceptional. Thank you to all who made our trip possible! Very very highly recommended Slainte

He was very accessible to our questions and stimulated conversation among us.
