Hello, my name is Shlomo, born in Jaffa and raised in a Kibbutz. I began my career as a facilitator of guiding methodologies in the Israeli Air Force. Afterwards I worked as a high school guidance counselor in Jerusalem. I was head of the UJA office in Rome and Spain. In 2002, my wife and I founded an organizational consulting company where we lead employees, managers, leaders, companies and organizations to improve their performance as individuals and as a team. Early on in life I discovered the joy in meeting new people and gifting them with inspirational experiences. Growing up in Israel with this passion and curiosity has lead me to travel the country, learn its history, and take in its sites and beautiful nature. I wrote a book about the important moments in my life and the things I went through that shaped my worldview and attitude today. Thanks to my studies, hobbies and love for story-telling, I found my path to guiding groups around Israel. I have been guiding groups for over 30 years now, in Hebrew, English, French, Spanish and Italian. I am excited to invite you to join me for tours around Israel, the birth place of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, where we can together visit some of the most important religious and spiritual sites of the world. I feel my true calling in life is to share my love and knowledge of Israel with people from around the world, to give you a wholesome and spiritual experience of my beautiful and unique home country.

I was a little nervous to go due to the conflict going on in Giza, so I booked 2 days with Solomon so he would pick us up at the airport, stay with us until it was time to go to the hotel, and then take us back to the hotel. I gave him very little guidance, just wanted to see as much as possible and that I...

hi Michelle, thank you very much for your feedback. I miss you all Shlomo
Shlomo is an excellent guide. We have used many guides from Tours by Locals and Shlomo is one of the best. His knowledge of the region and it's history - both from a political and religious perspective - was very impressive. His knowledge of the New Testament is that of someone who has not just read it, but studied it. Shlomo told us many stories that made history come to...

thank you for your warm words love from Israel
Shlomo is a kind man who has a sense of humor and tells good jokes. He keeps everything lite and doesn't worry about working to hard or talking a lot. Of course he is 71 years old so I would expect that. I enjoyed his ability to speak 6 different languages and he kept me safe from being over charged and dangerous areas of the Nazareth. I was feeling dehydrated, weak and...

Dear Leo, thank you very much Shlomo
We came to Israel to visit all of its religious sites. We had the pleasure of having Shlomo as our tour guide for 2 days for: old and new Jerusalem, Nazareth, Galilee, and the Dead Sea. He ensured we fully understood the meaning behind each religious site and its significance in Jesus' life. He took us to some delicious options for lunch! My favorite was St. Peter's Fish...
