Ganei HaNadiv (Ramat HaNadiv) is the name of the gardens that in my opinion, are the most beautiful gardens in Israel. Amazing, well-kept, and most spectacular gardens. The gardens are a memorial site to Baron Edmund de Rothschild and his wife, and in the center of the gardens is the tomb where their bones, which were brought to Israel in 1954, were buried. The tomb cave was hewn in the highest rocky area in the complex and around it are located stylish gardens on various topics such as: the Rose Garden, the Palm Garden, the Waterfall Garden, the Engagement garden and the most special of them all, is the Scent Garden, intended mainly for the blinds. The gardens have an abundance of stunning vegetation, rest areas and picnic areas. Suitable for a trip with children. Spectacular views on one hand mountains in the east and on the west views to the sea. Highly recommended for spending days and evenings. NOT 2 B MISSED.

We visited with friends, 2 couples, was magnificent! One hour of piece & quite. Barak gave us a detailed explanation about his & his wife dream which came true. He answered all the questions that we always wanted to ask about wine and we were embarrassed. The wine testing was soooo good. Highly recommend.

Reviewed By avibrecher - Zichron Yaakov, Israel
I have been there three times in two different escape rooms. The rooms contain many puzzles and quizzes. Most of them different kind of codes using numbers and letters. We succeed to achieve the goal of each room. It was a great fun and up to five people it is reasonable to work this out ( although on one occasion we were only three and we also succeeded ). Many of the puzzles use logics and mathematics and you use your left hemisphere of your brain most of the time.The scenery is quite nice. It is great fun also for kids around 9-10 years old and above.
