I love lobster and was very much anticipating a really good lobster roll at the Gloucester excursion. My husband's and my cold lobster roll were very tough and over cooked. The 2 ladies hot lobster were the same. Not sure if we would recommend this trip to anyone!

My trip was cancel by returning deposit to my team without connecting with me first. When I inquire I was told I did not have enough passengers which I first was told it did not matter how many passengers I have.

The entire process from start to finish is easy. Friendship Tours takes the stress out of itinerary issues and travel hosts. Our hosts at every stop were wonderful. The entire tour was fantastic.

The ship was very outdated, shower backed up into bathroom, air conditioning did not work well, no water in pool or hot tub even though weather was hot. The food was hit and miss on quality. Seemed like we had almost exactly the same food every day. We missed the island of Crete, and arrived at one island after dark and another at dusk.

Nassar was GREAT at getting back to me quickly. Unfortunately, when I decided to postpone my trip with our group for a year because of costs during the Jubilee year in Italy, he canceled all my trip plans and would not reply to emails or phone calls after that. I felt that was very unprofessional.

The tours were wonderful, but the food was disappointing.

The Miray cruise ship was a joke. We had no air conditioning. The overall ship just seemed dirty. The food was not good and we had the same thing every single meal. The excursions were great, that is the only reason the rating wasn’t a 1. I have used friendship tours before and loved them, but this time they dropped the ball.

Nasser and Friendship Tours take care of every detail. They make the trip personal, customized and carefree-- allowing Christian pilgrims to experience the sites, culture and history. I have lead more than a dozen pilgrimages with Friendship and would not hesitate to do so again. Thank you Nasser Noorani.

I go on many international tours & Friendship has exceeded them all. The leadership knows exactly how to help us with our schedule & genuinely wants us to have an unforgettable tour

The itinerary completely changed for the ship. There was an island we paid to see and we never stopped there. The ship was in bad shape. The air conditioning went out in our room on the second day and never worked again after multiple maintenance attempts to repair. The food was the same every single day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. We were not happy with this experience.

So DISAPPOINTED. Advertised a luxury bus. NOT!

The tour company is good. I have to comment on ‘the turkey train’. The dinner is NOT good. The turkey dry, the mashed potatoes- reconstituted. The stuffing, well Stove Top is better ( so take it from there), the gravy- from a can as is the cranberry stuff. No coffee, or tea. Just bottled soft drinks. ( Pepsi and lemonade). Seriously this obviously going on for many years- same underwhelming menu. I won’t return.

What kinda response is that Friendship Tour?? You know you have a tour to Lake Winnipesaukee and there is a turkey dinner. Such liar. May never take any tour with you again.

A retired senior pastor came on staff at our church and he told me, "Phil, you need to go to Israel." I told him, "I don't need to go!" Well we went, and as the senior pastor, I did all the teaching and Pastor Paul took care of all the details. I believe his last 8 of 10 trips were with Friendship Tours. His advise was only use Friendship Tours! I have lead and orchestrated 5 trips to Israel and now we are pivoting to Greece in October of 2025. Nasser has been awesome to work with, even adapting portions of the tour to who we are as a church. The pricing is excellent; the guides Nasser provided have been outstanding. I am excited to continue our relationship, helping our people see God's Word in living color.

I can’t express how thrilled we are with the exceptional service provided by Friendship Tours. They have helped us customize four incredible, life-changing trips: Israel and Jordan in 2022, Egypt to Israel in the spring of 2023, and Greece and Turkey in the fall of 2023. Next month, our group of 47 travelers will visit Scotland, England, Switzerland, and Germany on a two-week Reformation tour. If you’re looking for a travel company that goes above and beyond to create extraordinary, customized journeys, I highly recommend Friendship Tours. They’ve worked with us to customize each of our itineraries, select accommodations, and provided expert guides. Their expertise has made every trip not only enjoyable but deeply enriching. We have already planned two more trips next year and look forward to many more incredible journeys together!

We have worked with Friendship Tours for over a decade and over 22 trips. I have worked with other companies but Friendship is head and shoulders above other companies that I have worked with. They manage to feel like a small personal company, but in reality they host hundreds of trips a year. You get the best of both worlds!

Friendship Tours offers an outstanding value in every tour! You simply get more bang for your buck. That alone should convince anyone to check out the itineraries they've put together. But what I like is their responsiveness to tailor each trip to the needs of their clients. As a pastor, I've taken hundreds of people to Israel, Jordan, and Greece over the past 30 years. I can't recommend Friendship Tours highly enough. Give them a try! You won't be disappointed.

I have led five different group trips through Friendship Tours (Israel/Jordan, England and Scotland, Italy, Footsteps of Paul and The Protestant Reformation). I love Nasser Noorani's personal and creative touch.
Freindship Tours doesn't simply offer a standard package and expect leaders to live with it. The company is very open to itinerary desires and then goes all-out to make the experience memorable. Everything is first class. This in not a package tour company but a partner in great experiences,
