点评:Our family of four--2 parents and 2 boys ages 12 and 15--just returned to NY from an epic 12 day trip to Israel, 10 of which we spent guided by the wonderful Jeremy Collins, owner of Jerusalem with Jeremy. This trip was so magical and transformative, it feels hard to put it into words. From the moment we began engaging with him in January 2026 with thoughts about planning this trip, through the uncertainties of the war with Iran, to the moment we said goodbye at Ben Gurion airport, we felt listened to and cared for by Jeremy. Jeremy is, of course, a professional and certified tour guide, but he's much more than that. He is someone who is truly passionate about his love for Israel and takes his mission very seriously to share with his guests her unbelievable history, her hidden gems, her diverse people, her sights, smells, sounds, and flavors. He is a master storyteller, able to communicate around the complicated layers of ancient and modern life with depth and humor. Believe me, if he can get a jet-lagged tween and teen on summer vacation to wonder aloud about the shape of a stone arch, or to be curious about what soldiers or citizens may have been thinking as a battle waged on 2000 years ago, he can do this with any client! He is naturally generous, flexible, and non-judgmental, and is able to curate an experience to whatever your particular preferences may be, whether you spend a day with him in the Old City of Jerusalem, or nearly 2 weeks traversing the country with him, as we did. As 3 of the 4 of us were visiting Israel for the first time, he organized for us a major highlights tour of Jerusalem, the north, and the south, while allowing us to explore Tel Aviv for a couple of days on our own. We saw so much and learned an incredible amount without setting foot in a single museum (our request!) with plenty of time for everything from serious, contemplative conversation to relaxing and fun adventures with our kids--swimming, ice cream, shopping, scorpion hunting! He can accomodate any size or style of trip and he clearly has many established relationships in the industry. His attention to detail allowed us to relax as we laughed, and sang, and ate (and sunscreened!) our way around this beautiful land. I couldn't recommend him more highly.
翻译:我们一家四口——父母俩和12岁、15岁的两个儿子——刚刚结束为期12天的以色列之旅回到纽约。其中10天是在“耶路撒冷与杰里米”旅行社的创始人杰里米·柯林斯先生的全程带领下度过的。这次旅行真是奇妙至极、令人终生难忘,简直难以用言语来形容。从2026年1月份我们开始联系他、筹划这次旅行,到后来伊朗战争带来的种种不确定因素,再到最后我们在本-古里安机场与他道别……我们能感受到杰里米在认真倾听我们的心声并给予关怀。他当然是一位专业且持有资质的导游,但实际上他远不止于此。他满怀对以色列的热爱,全身心投入自己的使命——向游客们讲述这片土地令人难以置信的历史、那些不为人知的瑰宝、多元的民族风情,以及那里的景观、气味、声音与风味。他是一位出色的故事讲述者,能够以深刻且幽默的方式,把古往今来错综复杂的生活图景娓娓道来。相信我,如果他能让一个因时差而疲惫不堪、正在放暑假的青少年开始思考石拱门的形状,或者对2000年前一场战役中士兵与民众的心理状态产生好奇,那么他也能为任何客户做到这一点!他生性慷慨、灵活且不带偏见,无论你希望体验什么——哪怕只是和他一起在耶路撒冷老城度过一天——他都能为你量身定制一段完美的体验。我们和他一起在全国各地游览了近两周时间。我们四人中有三人是第一次到访以色列,于是他为我们安排了耶路撒冷、北部和南部的精华景点之旅,同时还允许我们独自在特拉维夫探索了几天。我们看到了很多东西,也学到了大量知识,而且全程没有踏进一家博物馆(这是我们的要求!)。我们还有充裕的时间去做各种事情,无论是认真地……从沉思式的交谈,到和孩子们一起享受轻松有趣的冒险——游泳、吃冰淇淋、购物,甚至捉蝎子!他能够安排各种规模与类型的旅行,显然在业界也拥有众多长期合作的伙伴。他对细节的用心让我们在欢笑、歌唱、大快朵颐(当然还有涂抹防晒霜!)的同时全然放松下来。我真心极力推荐他。
