Heard from pilgrims
In their own words
Your gift program is outstanding. My parents are delighted with their visit. Your efforts in planning and executing the trip were greatly appreciated. Hopefully, I'll be joining one of your packages soon.
Huge shoutout to AJET Israel for their incredible professionalism! We had a major trip planned, but the war forced us to cancel. Not only were they supportive, but they also refunded us completely, waiving fees they were technically entitled to keep. Their integrity is unmatched in the travel business. If you are looking for an agent that actually has your back look no further.
My words cannot express how incredible your service was, and how you went above and beyond to make us happy. Thank you a million times over.

Questions about planning your own journey
Will a mixed or diaspora group be made to feel at home?
That is one of the things we do best. We regularly unite families and congregations from many countries and backgrounds into one group, arriving as one in Jerusalem. Every tradition is honored with care, and no one is treated as an afterthought.
Which Christian traditions do you serve?
All of them, and each with genuine depth rather than a one-size approach. Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox, and Evangelical groups all travel with us, and we shape each journey to that tradition, from communion at the Garden Tomb to the Ethiopian Holy Week at Deir es-Sultan.
How large are the groups?
Group size varies by journey, and we keep them at a size where the experience stays personal and the guide can give real attention. For private and family pilgrimages, the group is simply your own party. Tell us your preference and we will be honest about what each option feels like.
What is included in the price, and what is not?
Each tour page itemizes its inclusions and exclusions in a clear side-by-side format so there are never any surprises. In general, all standard AJET pilgrimages include first class hotel accommodation, daily breakfast and dinner (half board), modern air-conditioned group transfers, a licensed biblical guide, personal whisper audio headsets, and all scheduled holy site entrance fees. International flights, daily lunches, driver and guide gratuities, travel insurance, and the ETA-IL entry authorization are excluded unless specifically arranged for a custom private delegation.
How do I book a pilgrimage with AJET?
It starts with a conversation, not a checkout. You tell us who is traveling and what you are hoping for, and we prepare a tailored proposal at no cost or obligation. When you are ready, a signed form and a deposit confirm your place, and we take care of the rest from there. If you have already chosen a journey, many tour pages also let you pick your dates and reserve with a card deposit straight away.
Is there any obligation when I ask for a proposal?
None at all. A proposal is free and carries no commitment. We would rather answer all your questions and let you decide in your own time than pressure anyone. Many travelers go back and forth with us for weeks before they are ready, and that is exactly how it should be.
How much is the deposit, and when is the balance due?
The deposit is shown on each tour page, typically 300 or 400 US dollars per person, and it secures your place on the journey. The remaining balance is due 60 days before departure, and the exact schedule is set out clearly in your proposal, with no hidden dates. We will always remind you in good time, so nothing is ever a surprise.
