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.

Overview of your Jerusalem tour

On this excursion we will focus on the history of the city, an introduction to the holiness and sanctity of Jerusalem, the development of monotheism and of course follow the path of Jesus through different iconic sites. Our first stop will be the top of Mt. Olives, where we will enjoy a panoramic view of the old city of Jerusalem, and then we will descend down the mountain as did Jesus on Palm Sunday. Arrive at the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus spent the last night before his arrest, our next stop is Mt. Zion the site of the tomb of King David and the Cenaculum, site of the Last Supper, where Jesus celebrates Passover with his disciples. From here we will enter the heart of the old city for a walking tour in the 4 quarters: Armenian, Jewish, Muslim and Christian. On this stroll we will visit the Cardo, the Western Wall, Via Dolorosa (the Way of the Cross) and of course the Church of the Holy Sepulcher where Jesus was crucified, buried and resurrected. *Please take note, this day is relatively long

OMG! We just got back from Jerusalem and what an experience! 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 have 3 kids. He understood the assignment! He trains other tour guides, so the respect that others had for him was unreal. He is the real deal. He was slightly more expensive than some of the others, but trust me, you get what you pay for. We have been to over 50 countries, and this was the best experience we have ever had. In 2 short days, we felt like Solomon was part of our family. I felt so safe w/ him because of his connections w/ the community. His in-depth knowledge was top notch. Great w/kids. Beautiful soul.

Shlomo added tremendous, long-lasting, and loving memories to our trip to Jerusalem. My mother and I came to Israel to fulfill her dream of visiting all of the religious sites it has to offer. Needless to say, we had the pleasure of having Shlomo as our tour guide for two days. Shlomo guided us through all of old and new Jerusalem, Nazareth, Galilee, and the Dead Sea. Shlomo not only guided us but also ensured we fully understood the meaning behind each religious site and its significance in Jesus' life.

We had a very informative tour from a knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. We would happily recommend Scholmo to other travellers.

Shlomo is by far one of the best tour guides that you can have for Jerusalem. He knows so much about the religious history and traditions; and he brings them to life with his passion and storytelling skills. He was great with our children, and kept them engaged for the entire tour. He knew all the best spots and places to eat and rest. He was flexible and able to adjust when we requested. Overall, you just are not going to find a better tour guide in Israel.
