Hi David and Chana. I don’t underestimate the huge (understatement!) amount of work that goes into making sure things look smooth on the surface of an event like this. You are both consummate pros and we have huge respect for your professionalism. Your kids are a true credit to you, especially Ariel who we dealt with the most. He has inherited your calm veneer and can-do approach to any challenge thrown his way. Nothing flusters him – he is polite and charming at all times, and his calm is contagious, even when challenges do inevitably pop up. Thank you for making Pesach so special for mum and our family. We made beautiful, precious memories together, which we will look back on for years to come.
Shabat shalom to you all back in Rhodes. ❤️

Thnku thnku!!! We are still on a high…:

We have just landed back home and are so thankful for an incredible, magical week. We feel so blessed to have spent pesach with our family, having memories that we will treasure and being in Greece was just a dream!
Just a few highlights: the boys snorkeling 🤿, the chazzanut, the inspiring shiurim, the tish after dinner, the dancing, the Solomon brothers, the food, touring the island, the view from our balcony, the kiddush’s (the sushi!!), happy hour by the beach and the endless latte’s and hot chocolate’s and being together friends and family!
Thankyou for such incredible memories!! Shabbat shalom, Chaim, Yael, Asher, Naomi, Adam and Noa Woolf

On behalf of Effie and myself and Chaim and Leslie and family and Yaakov and Shanna and family— many many thanks for a beautiful Yom Tov!

You truly are an amazing host and hostess!  You care about your guests’ experience and we felt your warmth and genuine concern the entire time!

You are not afraid of feedback–which shows how committed you are to providing the ultimate Yom Tov!

We had a fantastic time!  

It is depressing to read about how many programs run out of food, matzah, had too many guests, and a variety of other complaints.  Kudos to you for making sure we were not lacking anything!!

We never felt like there wouldn’t be enough–the tea room was constantly being refilled–the food in the dining room was constantly being refilled–the desserts were over the top delicious and plentiful– there was matzah–there was everything we needed for the seder!  There were so many delicious dishes and meats and salads and fish! This takes a lot of work and organization and planning to get everything you need to the hotel and more!

We thank you for that!   We even had omelets the day we left–this is the gold standard!!

We save all year for this treat and to take the kids for an incredible vacation and you made it superb!

The hotel staff could not have been nicer—they did an amazing job keeping the hotel pristine!  

Yashar Koach for arranging such a fabulous Pesach and letting us stay for an incredible bonus Shabbos!  The icing on the cake!

Wishing you both Hatzlachah Rabbah and may Hashem shower you with tons of brachos and nachas!

Thank you David and Chana for such an opportunity and experience. We had an absolute amazing and unforgettable time filled with great memories! Our group was just as amazing and wonderful. It was an absolute pleasure meeting all of you and hoping to see you on future trips with Kosher travelers! 

Dubai Tour November 2022

Our Kosher Travelers Chanuka Dubai trip was exciting. The destination was like a mirage with all new buildings in many architectural styles. The people were very welcoming and genuine and seeing what has been achieved in a short 30-40 years as this city grew from nothing was amazing. Accommodation, kosher meals and organization was excellent. Kosher Travelers made it very enjoyable.

Evelynne Cherney, Modiin Israel

Please keep up the wonderful work with all the kosher travel..you are doing a wonderful job with your high quality trips.

ICELAND TOUR AUGUST 2022

I would like to say how delighted Rookie and I were to be on this trip with a group of intelligent and delightful people. We are all different. But unity in diversity is an important principle for Rookie and myself. This was a great group of people led by a wonderful guide. Besides seeing מעשה בראשית  in such a graphic way. Everyone added to the pleasure of the experience. The food was great. All of our new friends added character and each made their special contribution to our digestive systems and our brains.

 We also feel that Kosher Travelers (the Walles clan) promised and delivered a full program for nine 1/2 days. And there was wisdom in the way they did it. Flying instead of driving gave us two full extra days of the experience. שנזכה כולנו לשנים רבות נעימות וטובות. May this coming year be a שנת חיים ושלום
