Hi! Are you looking for a great tour of Jerusalem from a Jewish lens? You've come to the right place! I can show you around the ancient, traditional Jewish neighborhoods of Jerusalem, where you can catch an enchanting glimpse into a seemingly by-gone era. You can meet people leading a completely media-free lifestyle, and walk along the alleys where they and generations of their ancestors have eaten, prayed, and loved. . . I can take you on a fascinating tour of Jerusalem's old city, peppered with stories of the righteous Jews who walked those paths. We can experience together the palpable majesty and mystery of the Western Wall, where two thousand years of tears and prayers were offered to One G-d. I can also take you down to the secret Western Wall tunnels, that actually hide the heart of the Wall, and share with you its tragic history. Another tour you might opt for is a tour of the Underground Prisoners' Museum, which offers a view into the fascinating history of the modern State of Israel. The fates of many who sacrificed their lives fighting for Israel are on display at this little-known jem of a museum, and I would be happy to guide you through it. Of course, we can customize any tour to your needs and interests. I will be happy to figure out together what will work best and deliver the most satisfaction to you based on your interests, your time, and your leisure. I can also definitely offer suggestions for further exploring Jerusalem and beyond, to make your holiday here special and worthwhile. I am looking forward to inviting you to experience the inside scoop on Jerusalem - the epicenter of the world! ABOUT ME I moved to Jerusalem from the United States in 2015, and have been studying, working, and building a family here since then. Having received a teaching degree from an Israeli college, my passion for sharing knowledge has translated into guiding tours to new visitors to this beautiful, holy, eternal city. I have no doubt that you, too, will be overtaken by Jerusalem's charm and majesty. The Torah says, "G-d's Eyes do not leave this Land from the inception of the year until its end. " Come and experience basking in the glory of this view! History teacher certified by the Israeli Ministry of Education. The tour of the Jewish neighborhoods can only be conducted if all the participants are attired in modest dress. (Long sleeves, high collar, and mid-calf skirt for women.) I have no restrictions in terms of my guiding.

This tour is an excellent way to experience the spiritual energy of Jerusalem and tick all the must-see sights of this holy city (and more)! Let me take you on a journey to discover the history of the exile and re-building of the Jewish people. We will explore the first and second Temple eras and understand the meaning of the destruction of the Temples. We will also delve into the modern history of the re-settlement of Israel and see the actualization of Biblical prophecies! If you want to hear a traditional Jewish perspective on the history of the Temples - a perspective you will not read in history books or hear online - then I invite you to take this fascinating tour with me.
- We will start our tour at the Jaffa Gate to the Old City. From there, we will walk the beautiful cobbled streets of Jerusalem stone and admire the sights, sounds, and smells of Old Jerusalem. We will make a stop at the Tomb of King David and enjoy stories about this beloved "singer of Israel. " - We will make a stop at the Hurva synagogue, and then move on to the holy remnant of the Temple: the Western Wall. - After allowing some time for personal petition or sight-seeing at this awe-inspiring site, you will have the option to extend your experience here by visiting the Virtual 3D Tour of the Temple (dependent on prior booking and availability). I am looking forward to sharing the secrets of the Jewish Quarter with you!
