Shalom, my name is Shai, and I help people connect to The Land of Israel using their six senses. So what is the sixth sense, you're asking? Follow me, and I'll help you to find out. . . As a private tour guide, I create tailor-made tours according to the wishes of Jewish and Christian tourists. Special VIP treatment for businessmen coming from abroad. Even a single day can become a great experience. My latest book (2025), 'A Bridge to Your Roots,' connects the Bible to Israel's geography and delves into the social, religious, and historical backdrop of Jesus's time during the late Second Temple period. This isn’t just a travelogue—it’s a spiritual journey. Discover the depths of the Bible by connecting its stories to the geography of the Holy Land in its original setting. Uncover Israel’s rich history and the deeper meanings of biblical words through their Hebrew origins that illuminate the foundational meanings of biblical words. Inspired by Mark Twain’s 1867 journey, this book retraces his footsteps while uncovering hidden gems he missed. I create tour experiences and not merely sightseeing tours. . . Licensed tour guide in English and Hebrew -Incoming Tourism, Pilgrimage, off-the-beaten-path places… VIP special tours with luxury cars.

We meet at Haifa Port and drive north along the coastal plain of Israel. Visit Acre (Akko) Old city, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Old city combined an underground city built by the Crusaders in the 12th century and the Ottoman city built on top of it. Descend a steep cable car and visit the grottos at Rosh HaNikrah, right next to the Mediterranean sea. Drive to the top of Mt. Carmel to marvel at the Bahá'í gardens in Haifa. The beautiful gardens are the "twin gardens" of Akko, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list. Visit Vadi Nisnass market in Haifa, and enjoy local food and delights. (closed on Sundays!) Drive back to the starting point, Haifa port.
