Hi there! I'm Lior. I love to travel, learn new things, and meet new people. That's why I chose to become a tour guide in Israel and more specifically, in Jerusalem. I was born in the Galilee and lived in many places - the Galilee, the USA, and the southernmost city in Israel, Eilat. But since I came to Jerusalem in 2017, I just can't imagine living anywhere else. It has been love at first sight! The history, the people, the views! There's so much to do, see, and experience in Jerusalem. I hope to share this love with you during my tours. Before becoming a tour guide, I wrote for travel websites. I also hosted people on Couchsurfing, offered my guests travel tips, and showed them around my city. They asked me a lot of questions. I didn't have all the answers. That's when I realized that I don't know much about my country, and that's why I decided to join the tour guide course, which taught me a lot. The course covered everything about Israel - from prehistoric times until today. Now, I would love to share my knowledge with you and try to answer all your questions! I believe walking is the best way to experience a place. If you love to walk and want to see and learn as much as possible in a short period of time - my tours are definitely for you. Here are some more points about me and my tours: * My tours are usually half-day walking tours. Sometimes, if needed, I combine some travel via public transportation. * I can show you the highlights of Jerusalem or the lesser-known parts of the city. * I'm a Jew, but I love to talk about Christianity and Islam, too! * I like to talk short and to the point and prefer to hear your questions to know what really interests you. * My tours are fully customizable, so let me know what you want to do, and I'll tailor the tour to your needs and interests. Looking forward to guiding you in Israel! Lior Tour guide certificate issued by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism * I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver if needed. * I do not guide inside the Western Wall Tunnels.

Delve into the history of Israel in one of the world's leading art and archaeology museums
Overview of your Jerusalem tour
The Israel Museum in Jerusalem is one of the world's most fascinating museums. I've visited it dozens of times and still find it exciting. With the most extensive wing of biblical and Holy Land archeology in the world, there's a lot to see and learn. For a first-time visitor, it could be overwhelming. That's why I created this tour for you - a tour that will take you through the highlights of the Israel Museum and show you the best of the best. On this private half-day walking tour, I'll focus mainly on the archeological findings in the museum. I believe there's no other place in the world with so many artifacts that offer a glimpse into the time of the Bible. So, we'll visit the impressive Model of Jerusalem in the Second Temple Period, view the most ancient copies of the Hebrew Bible in the Shrine of the Book, and discover the highlights of the archeology wing. It's going to be fun AND enriching! Can't wait to guide you inside one of my favorite museums in Israel.
