Travel + Leisure Editorial Guidelines Updated on January 31, 2023 Share Tweet Pin Email Photo: Courtesy of Respective Travel Advisor Wald loves sharing the many facets of her native Israel, whether through a food tour of Tel Aviv or a three-day walk in the Negev Desert with Bedouin guides. She also knows the ins and outs of chartering private jets and helicopters so that time-strapped travelers can maximize their visits. Wald can create luxury itineraries incorporating nearby Egypt, Jordan, and Morocco. "Israel is the world center for tech and innovation," Wald says. "My connections with key people on the ground enable me to plan special-interest tours with a focus in cuisine, art, or technology. We can arrange food tours in markets or wine tastings in wineries. In the Negev Desert, I can plan five-day desert glamping getaways, including hiking and outdoor special events." She is a master at coordinating celebratory trips, from weddings to bar and bat mitzvahs. And when it comes to seeing the best of Israel, she doesn't waste time. "We use helicopters," Wald says, unapologetically. "This, in my opinion, is what luxury travel is all about."

The originality in the trip planning, access to key people for briefs and meetings whether it be in the arts, geopolitics, or the startup nation. The attention to detail goes significantly beyond impressive. Whatever dream vacation or corporate event we've had, Wald has made it immeasurably better from the exquisite food, accommodations, and tour guides to the private chefs, videographer, and the unique and extraordinary locales her team are able to source. Wald and her crew have access to Palestinian Arab Druze locals for multicultural experiences and have sourced small businesses in order for us to meet, mingle with, and support locals. And, yes, sometimes hiccups occur, but Wald and her team are on it immediately and come up with a solution. In the world of luxury travel planning, there is no individual or organization with the same degree of creativity and professionalism I'd trust more than Wald." — Marion G. Was this page helpful?
