Samir Bishara
I have been in the tourism field for many years, long enough for me to become very aware of travelers' needs and requirements. My passion for tourism and travel influenced me to switch my career from Mechanical Engineering to tourism.
When I build an itinerary for my travelers, I picture the routes in my mind and see how things can go smoothly and what can be difficult for the travelers - enhancing the good things and smoothing sharp edges. I do my best always to make all trips aspects clear to my travelers so they do not need to worry about any last-minute surprises. It is a way of life for me - I enjoy helping people get the most out of what they paid for, and always ready and happy to go the extra mile to satisfy my guests. My aim always is to let all of my guests go back home, with an outstanding feeling of joy and satisfaction from their trips.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I plan trips to Jordan, Israel, and Egypt and I specialize in archeological, adventure, religious, trekking, and eco trips.
"
How did you get involved in travel?
"Seeing the reactions of travelers after each day after they return from a visit. To see the joy and astonishment on their faces, I had to know why! "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Over 20 years ago, I took a pilgrimage trip to Jerusalem & Galilee. While it was an eye-opening experience from a religious and historical perspective, it was not a place that I would describe as particularly fun or edgy. But it is an overwhelming experience in all aspects. After that, I knew that I needed to go deeper into this field.
Golden Travel advices :
• Travel without telling anyone.
• If you are not rich, do not accompany rich people on travel.
• Do not travel to reach certain places, travel for the travel itself,
• Sometimes you need to travel very far to find what is closer to you.
• when you travel do not drag your troubles with you. leave them home.
• Do not ever travel with someone you do not like.
• Do not listen to what they say. Go and see by yourself.
• Do not follow the steps of others. Everybody is lost, even if they pretended otherwise.

Several weeks before our trip, we reached out to Samir and asked what if there is an escalation to conflict. Samir assured us that Jordan, historically, was not affected. Unfortunately, my worst fear regarding the trip came to pass. We were asleep when Iran bombed the zionist entity. I do not recall Samir reaching out to us to see if we were OK, how we were feeling/doing. That is a big disappointment. Even while doing the... Read more

A special thanks goes to Nader (or Nick for us!) our driver. He was very generous, kind, full of knowledge and he made our journey even more interesting. Thank you Samir for organising a great trip. We will come back. Enrica & family
