Highlight of our trip
We absolutely loved our Druze cooking experience with Galileat. Paul was a wonderful guide, so helpful and easy to talk to. Our hosts, Wajid and Amira, welcomed us into their home and immediately made us feel comfortable. We cooked an incredible vegetarian meal together, but what made the experience truly special was learning about Druze culture and having the chance to ask questions and talk openly. The food was delicious, the hospitality was amazing, and the whole experience felt warm, persona...read more

Highlight of our vacation in Israel

A truly special and memorable experience—and my favorite meal in Israel!
I cannot recommend GalilEat strongly enough! Our guide, the excellent Baruch of Touring With Baruch, suggested that we do an Arabic cooking class while on our trip.

Learning about cooking, culture and history from a Druze family
A spectacular experience. My wife and I spent an evening with a Druze couple, learning about both culture and cuisine in their house. The only thing more amazing than the delicious food was the experience of connecting with them, with Paul as our guide. It was one of the most memorable parts of our trip to the Middle East.
