    My wife and I have been making plans and itinerary for our Israel tour and naturally we also have our children in mind. Thanks so much for this post, Petal. We’ve been building up some children-friendly tour destination, and Genesis Land would make a good sidetrip. We already have an agency in mind. My family will surely be just as excited as I am.
