Shalom, Salaam, Bonjour, Hallo, I am happy to present myself as a professional, Humorous and passionate licensed tour guide. I made Aliyah (emigrated) from Belgium in 92' to the land of Milk & Honey, Integrated in the society as a Kibbutz member, served in the IDF marines corps and directed for many years at the Foreign Ministry professional training programs for developing countries in cooperation with UNESCO. Particularly touching and fruitful were the dialogue workshops between Israelis and Palestinians. If you decide to book me you will have to fasten you're seat-belt! Your visit to Israel will reach heights and stay inscribed in your memories as a unique experience. MY CHALLENGE: As licensed tour guide, historian and lecturer on Bible History I QUESTION and share the complexity of the past and present of this tiny piece of land who was conquered, destroyed and rebuild so many times. Proud to be familiar with (almost) every side-street, anecdote, local par-fum and melody. IF MOSES WOULD HAVE HIRED MY SERVICES, THE HEBREWS WOULDN'T CIRCLED AROUND FOR 40 YEARS before getting into the land of Canaan! MY OBJECTIVE: Let you live through an unforgettable sensation, called Israel. Looking forward to see you! MA Israel Studies, Haifa university. Licensed tour-guide by the Ministry of Tourism N* 11123 Vehicle Licensed for tour guiding by Ministry of Transport

Overview of your Jerusalem tour

Jerusalem is so full of spirit that you have to expect the unexpected. Where else can you meet King David and walk in the footsteps of the Lord and feel the spirit of the King of Kings, Jesus Christ? We start our walking tour through Jerusalem at the Mount of Olives and overview the Dome of the Rock, walk through the Garden of Gethsemane up to the Lions gate along the Via Dolorosa, visiting some of the Stations of the Cross and the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. After a small break in one of the pittoresque restaurants of the Arab market (souk), we pass through the four quarters, Christian, Armenian, Jewish and Muslim to the (Western) Wailing Wall, King David's Tomb and the last supper room on the mount Zion. At the end of the tour you're been awarded with a Pilgrim Certificate from the city of Jerusalem and Ministry of tourism. My passion is your unforgettable experience!

Michel is an absolute superstar!! He made the 5 hour tour fly by while hitting us with history, stories, jokes, and everything in between. His multi-perspective approach made a usually dense topic much more fun and light-hearted. And he was able to answer each of my 634 questions haha. Wish we had more days available to book another tour with him. Genuinely loves what he does and it shows. Thanks Michel!

Michel gave an intimate introduction to his city. With his warm, open, apparently light hearted approach, he was highly sensitive to the history he was guiding us through as well as the people he was working with, He clearly knew his territory in great depth, and was not frightened to challenge you; nor was he frightened by being challenged by us. Michel learnt of our particular interests and rapidly tailored the tour to these... the result was a very full, beautiful, soul stirring experience. Book Him !
