Ashdod port, Israel - Shore Excursions: Masada and the Dead Sea

"The best there is! We did a private tour with Ron visiting Jerusalem, Bethlehem, & the Dead Sea. From the moment we met, we knew we had made a great decision - he simply exudes incredible energy, he is kind, personable & knowledgeable. He catered each stop to our request, is well rounded & unbiased related to the history of each region - providing understanding of intersection of faiths + significance to each site, I wish this review allowed more characters, I can't say enough about him or the experience" (Jessica Klein's review from NY) My name is Ron, experienced Israeli tour guide ever since 2009, however it is worth noting that I did not start out as a guide. A native Israel, I was born and raised in Tel Aviv. After completing my army service with the IDF Spokesman's office, I pursued a degree in Economics from Tel Aviv University. After 2 years in Sydney, Australia, I decided to return to Israel to work as an economist and journalist for economic dailies. After 14 years in this field, I decided to change direction and pursue my true passion of sharing Israel with visitors from abroad. So I completed the Israeli tour guide course and since then I am working as full time as a licensed Israeli Tour Guide, specializing with small groups. I primarily guide individuals and families, both Jewish and Christian, conveying my love of Israel and my wealth of knowledge about this land and its people. I do have many interests including history, politics, nature, culture and religion and I am also a sports enthusiast who like good food and wine. Only to mention that I am conversant in both English and French. I welcome the opportunity to explore Israel with you. ברוך הבא B.A. Economis, Tel Aviv University Licensed tour guide, Ministry of tourism None
