Amazing tours to the Balkan

Wander around some of Europe’s most sophisticated and effervescent capital cities with IBMT Tours. The Balkans is a unique and picturesque region where its beauty is not bound to the natural features of the countries that inhabit it but also relating to the rich culture that lies at its very core. Inland, urban landscapes of active towns and cities, dusty streets and immaculate architecture are met with natural backdrops that contain large canyons and valleys, Rocky Mountains and, calm and peaceful rivers and lakes. Places located in closer proximity contain a matchlessly lavish presence intertwined with cities with ancient design and history.

It is somewhat unexplainable how a region can so seamlessly balance and combine the beauty of both the natural and cultural elements of varied countries. IBMT’s educated and experienced travel representatives ensure to highlight this unified mixture as we guide you on our holistic tours of the Balkans region.

Start your vacation off by exploring the charming streets of Croatian cities, discovering the nuances of its past Roman rule, legendary monuments and historic attractions including St. Catherine’s Church, the Government Palace in the city of Zagreb or the declared UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site Diocletian’s Palace in Split. Enjoy pure bliss as you take in the magnificent views at Plitvace Lake National Park as IBMT takes you around its gorgeous topography and character.

Find yourself in a place surrounded by tranquility and romance when you arrive in the island of Hvar. Fields of rosemary and lavender and olive orchards creates an overarching aroma and experience unlike any other as you walk through the inlands of this delightful island. Watching the sunset as you relax and eat in a traditional “konoba” will give you a taste of the local venetian spirit and will leave you yearning for more. IBMT will continually satisfy this desire with our walking tour of Venice. Journey around this historic Italian city celebrating the rich art, food and culture that is apparent everywhere you look. Bid farewell to this romantic city by closing the day with a famous gondola ride.

The IBMT Bar Mitzvah tour was fantastic! It was the perfect blend of family time and peer group time, of sites with religious/historic significance and just plain fun. The guide was personable and informative, and even the bus driver was great. All the details were attended to and you didn’t have to concern yourself with or worry about a thing. It was a true vacation. We would highly recommend it to anyone. If you are going to Eilat, Petra is a must!

We went on a church group to the Holyland with IBMT Tours and had a great trip, everything was planned for us perfectly. There was over 123 people in four different bus groups and things went smoothly, I thought it was going to be hectic with that many people in the group but IBMT did a wonderful job and made sure the buses did not go convoy, every bus had its own time table and itinerary for the day, our guide Dani was so knowledgeable and loving. We love you IBMT and we will recommend you guys. Thanks for everything you have done for us.

We just returned from Israel on an IBMT Bar Mitzvah Tour for our three grandsons.  We had enough family members to warrant our own bus.  After checking out many tour companies we went with IBMT and all of us were glad we did.  The hotels were fabulous and the rooms allotted even more so.  From the INBAL in Jerusalem, KFAR BLUM in the Galilee, the SHERATON in Tel Aviv, to the ROYAL BEACH in Eilat we couldn’t have asked for more.  Our meals were equally excellent.  Beginning with a welcome reception at the INBAL to the closing dinner at the CANAAN restaurant in Tel Aviv one and all loved them.

It was a busy tour made even more so by my husband who was determined the grandchildren see “everything”.  Fortunately for us, we had the best guide when Ornan (from IBMT) gave us GADI.  All of the groups loved their guides but Gadi was  special.  He was able to reach the kids (ages 7-13) as well as the adults.  His knowledge, willingness to adjust the schedule, and good nature gave him a soft spot in all of our hearts.  He filled in at Yad Vashem when the guide droned on a bit too much for some of us.  He searched out a cemetery where a father, grandfather and great grandfather was buried and proceeded to enlighten us on the rituals and customs of a military cemetery.  He adjusted our times to include those little extras.  When weather precluded the camels, we visited Qumran.  After the Bar Mitzvahs, some wanted to walk down Masada - again, no problem. 

We loved everything.  Friday night dinner with an Israeli family (coincidentally the husband was from Toronto), meeting the soldiers on the kibbutz, the Druze lunch, sampling different foods at the shuk, the bullet factory and on and on.  Although the weather was precarious in December, it didn’t stop us and we were able to celebrate Chanukah in Israel...menorahs  everywhere, sufganiyot of every kind, celebrations in the street galore.

Would we recommend this tour...without a moments hesitation.  We had a family trip of a lifetime.  Thank you also to our bus driver Louie, whom we all loved and who got us around safely. 

“Gadi” - what else can we say ... g double o - d, j-o-b. Good job, good job.  V-e-r-y-n-i-c-e, very nice, very nice.💕

 

 

I cannot imagine a better, more organized, more perfect experience! IBMT went above and beyond all expectations!

Loved the trip! The itinerary was fantastic and really kept us moving. We were able to see and do so much. Best of all was our tour guide Natalie. She was very kind, patient and extremely knowledgeable on every aspect of Israel.
