Private Guiding

 

Why should i take a licensed tour guide?

In Israel, tour guides are licensed by the Ministry of Tourism. Prospective guides must complete a substantial and comprehensive course, as well as rigorous written and oral exams to earn a license. The Ministry of Tourism regulates guides creating a safe and fair market providing visitors with peace of mind.
 

Are all guides created equally?

The law recently changed and tour guide courses beginning in 2020 will be half as long. The new guides will cover half the material my two year course did and visit only 60% of the sites during the course.

For your peace of mind and enjoyment while vacationing in Israel, ensure your guide is a graduate of the more rigorous two year course. Our rates are the same but we have more to offer.
 

Easy communication

English is my mother tongue.

Personalization = A Vastly better visit

A good tour guide knows what is available to tourists and works with you to create a unique travel experience tailored to your interests.

experience Israel Your way

I provide as much or as little local support as you wish. Would you like to let go of all logistical duties? Maybe you prefer a guide for only a day or two. Or, anything in between.
 

Guiding People not sites

Israel is a fascinating and complicated country. I provide context to your experience ensuring you take away more from your visit.
