Guide #11099

As a resident of the Galilee and Golan for over 40 years I can take my guests to out of the way places and introduce them to the locals who will tell their stories first hand. The fascination I have for the local history allows me to show the many facets of Israel, be it Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Druze or Bahai alongside ancient history and current issues. The Sea of Galilee is the center of Jesus' early life and through the Galilean geography it is possible to get a better understanding of his message and calling which is relevant to all Christians and to Catholics in particular. Years working in agriculture help me explain the issues of the conflict over land and water, today. . . . and in the past. B.A. Israel Studies (History) & Tourism (2003). M.A. Israel Studies (History & Religion) - Kinneret Academic College (2020). Official Tour Guide License. License & Insurance to carry passengers including Bethlehem & Jericho.

    Joe is an amazing tour guide. We spent a full day driving around Galilee seeing all the sites. Joe's strong connection to the community really enriched the experience. He went above and beyond securing a last minute boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. He knew almost everyone and everything we encountered throughout the day. His vehicle was super clean, spacious and...

    Joe was the best tour guide we could have asked for in the Holy Land. I can't imagine that you will find a more knowledgeable tour guide. Joe was also very flexible with our schedule and our needs. The tour was amazing, and there are endless sights to see. We have traveled the world and this is one of the best tours we have ever taken.

    Joe was an exceptionally knowledgeable and personable guide. We had been to Israel twice before so wanted to see 'unusual' sites not previously seen. We were shown and had explained many sites off the beaten track. We would strongly recommend his services to any visitor to Israel, whether a first visitor or repeat visitor, particularly in the Golan area. Thank you Joe
