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.
Family trips · Israel · Since 1996
Three generations, one week, four different paces.
Grandparents who land at six in the morning. Teenagers who don't want to be anywhere before ten. A toddler who naps at one. And an itinerary that quietly assumed everyone would keep up. Family trips to Israel don't fall apart at the sites — they fall apart in the transitions between them.

Where family trips actually come apart
The luggage
Nine suitcases, a stroller, and a duty-free bag. This is the single most common reason a family ends up in two cars instead of one — and it's easier to solve before you land than at the kerb.
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 legal drop-off followed by a walk. Access can change, so we check the route and describe the expected walk before the day rather than promising door-side access.
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.
The vehicle question
V-Class carries up to 7 passengers, S-Class up to 3, and Sprinter up to 16, each excluding the driver. Those numbers do not prove the luggage or car seats fit. We confirm the actual people, bags, equipment, and mobility needs before assigning a vehicle.
Tell us the ages, the luggage, and the mobility, and we'll tell you which one actually fits — including if the honest answer is two vehicles. Seats and luggage are confirmed in writing with your quote.
Kids and grandparents, specifically
Car seats
Tell us the children's ages when you ask for the quote and we'll confirm what we can install for your dates before you book. We don't promise a seat we haven't confirmed.
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
Send us the itinerary and we'll say which days are too full to drive as written. We'd rather tell you in March than at eleven o'clock on a Tuesday.
If you already have a guide
Send us the itinerary they built. Your guide runs the sites and the story; we run the vehicle and the clock. Most of the family weeks we drive were designed by somebody else, and that's the arrangement that works best.
How it works
Send your dates
WhatsApp or the form, with your dates, party size, and what the trip is for.
Get a written quote
With a day-by-day plan. We don’t publish a rate card — the quote is built for your actual itinerary, and what it covers, plus what would change it, is written into it.
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?
Tell us the children's ages when you ask for the quote and we'll confirm what we can install for your dates before you book.
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?
Often, yes — and sometimes the honest answer is two. Send us the headcount, the ages, and the luggage and we'll tell you which, with the seats and luggage confirmed in writing in the quote.
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.
If what we delivered isn't what we agreed, tell us — during the trip if you can, so it can still be fixed while it matters. We will do everything reasonably within our control to put it right. The guarantee covers what RT Tours provides: our vehicles, our drivers, and our coordination. Where a licensed guide, an aviation operator, or the airport's fast-track provider delivers part of your booking, we'll take it up with them on your behalf and tell you honestly what we can and can't change.
How the guarantee is applied to your booking is set out in your written confirmation.
