There were many great things about AIT
There were many great things about AIT. They were there to pick us up at the airport even though we arrived a day early. All the hotels were GREAT 5 star hotels with fantastic breakfasts & dinners. AIT checked us in before we arrived. We NEVER had to stand in line for a check-in. All the hotels brought our luggage up to our rooms for us. All hotel tips were taken care of by AIT in advance. Evenings were free with dinner the only planned event. Country guides were knowledgeable, approachable & very friendly. Our group was 24 people, which was wonderful. The total price was attractive compared to other travel companies. I would definitely recommend AIT to other people. Downsides...We never had more than 10 minutes at each site to reflect & meditate. That 10 minutes included using the restroom & getting back to the bus. Because our Holy Land tour was made up mainly of Christians, 20-30 minutes of time for reflection & meditation would have been much better. In Jordan, we spent 30 minutes at a disabled persons jewelry shop (that had very expensive mosaics) instead of having more time to meditate & reflect on Mount Nebo.
