The arrivals
Half the family lands Sunday morning, the other half Monday night, and someone is trying to organize both from a hotel lobby. We run each arrival on its own flight time and get everyone to the same place.

Where family trips actually come apart
The luggage
Checked bags, cabin luggage, strollers and mobility aids all affect the vehicle choice. Send the complete list before booking so the passenger and luggage arrangements are confirmed together.
The middle of the afternoon
The point at which the grandparents are done and the teenagers are not. If the family may need to split, we plan the vehicle coverage before the day instead of assuming one car can be in two places.
The walk from the drop-off
Many sites have a designated drop-off followed by a walk. We check the approach and describe the walking distance so you can plan comfortably.
The evening
Dinner across town with nine people and no one wanting to drive at night in a country they don't know.
One transport plan for the week, not rides booked one at a time
Booking transport ride by ride becomes harder when the day changes. With a multi-day RT Tours proposal, the luggage, car-seat, mobility, pickup, and timing requirements can be kept in one written plan, even if an operational change requires a different driver or vehicle.
A mid-afternoon change still has limits. We check the confirmed hours, route, driver schedule, and any supplier bookings, then tell you what can move and what it affects.

V-Class carries up to 7 passengers, S-Class up to 3, and Sprinter up to 16, each excluding the driver. We match your passenger count, luggage, car seats and mobility needs to the vehicle before booking.
Send the children’s ages, luggage count and any mobility requirements. Your written quote confirms the vehicle or combination of vehicles for your family.
Kids and grandparents, specifically
Car seats
Send the children’s ages, heights if known, and luggage details. We confirm suitable car seats and the vehicle before booking.
Mobility
Tell us what your family needs and we will check the legal drop-off, expected walk, vehicle entry, and site access for the proposed route. When a site or vehicle is not suitable, we say so before the day.
Pacing
Share the fixed visits and the times your family needs for meals, rest and the return. We assess the driving and walking together before agreeing the day.
If you already have a guide
Send your guide’s itinerary so we can connect the driving and pickup points with the visits. The guide leads the touring while our driver handles the vehicle and road journey. RT Tours also arranges licensed guides when you need one; a guide travelling in the vehicle occupies a passenger seat.
How it works
Send your dates
WhatsApp or the form, with your dates, party size, and what the trip is for.

Your day-by-day plan includes the vehicles, chosen services, price and terms for changes.
The pickup plan is confirmed
Flight details, language requirements, vehicle assignment, and pickup instructions are stated in writing and updated when confirmed conditions change.
What families ask
Do you provide car seats?
Yes, child seats are provided at no extra charge. Send the children’s ages, heights if known, and luggage details. We confirm suitable car seats and the vehicle before booking.
My mother uses a walker. Can she manage a day in Jerusalem?
It depends on the sites, the legal drop-offs, and what she can manage. Tell us about steps, distance, and transfers; we will check the proposed route and say clearly which stops need changing or leaving out.
Can one vehicle hold our whole family?
Our S-Class, V-Class and Sprinter carry up to 3, 7 and 16 passengers respectively, excluding the driver. Include any guide or accompanying staff, children’s ages and the full luggage list. We confirm whether one vehicle or a combination suits the family before booking.
We land on two different days. Is that a problem?
Not necessarily. Send both flights and the hotel details; we will check vehicle and driver availability for each arrival and return one written pickup plan.
Should we book a driver for every day?
Not necessarily. Some days are genuinely walkable from a well-placed hotel. Send the itinerary and we'll tell you which days don't need us.
What does it cost?
There's no rate card. The quote is written against your actual dates, route, party size, and vehicle.
A full satisfaction guarantee on every booking.
Every booking carries our full satisfaction guarantee. Tell us if something needs attention, ideally during the trip so we can act while it matters. We will do everything reasonably within our control to put it right, and coordinate with any independent provider involved.
How the guarantee is applied to your booking is set out in your written confirmation.
