As a licensed, local private tour guide based in Jerusalem Israel I try to create private Jerusalem tours and Israel tours that include all the must see sites but leaves time to go off the beaten track to match your interests and travel pace. Australian born , I have made my home in Jerusalem for the past 30 years and enjoy sharing travel experiences with visitors to this complex and interesting place. I love developing custom designed itineraries with enough flexibility for you to feel that you are in charge of your own trip. I highly recommend early morning tours of Jerusalem with the light of dawn and the quiet streets and Holy places as the day starts in the City. ***CUSTOMIZED TOURS can also be developed combining specific tours developed by the guides in the Israel Toursbylocals community that you may be interested in and my role is to help create an overall itinerary that makes the most sense in maximizing your Israel experience. Each day is an opportunity to create your own experience . I work with individuals, couples, families with kids, sometimes 3 generation families touring together. I've toured with 7 & 9 year olds as well as 96 & 94 year olds and I love to make every day of touring a little different - a change of pace, a change in the order of the sites visited , a day following a theme that grows from a question someone asked the day before. Let's face it you have come for a holiday so want to enjoy but it's not hard to see that there is a lot of layers to this place. Mark Twain described it as being a place you have to read a hundred pages of history for every mile or so you walk. Have a look at the tours I offer and be in touch . Please also note that these tour description can be combined in a myriad of ways and I am always happy to develop a customized itinerary & quote for you. It has always been my opinion that private tours of family , friends and self formed groups of traveling companions can be a great way to travel and explore Israel and such groups can make for an enjoyable as well as cost efficient travel experience. Please remember the ToursbyLocals approach: ***Every tour is private. As your guide I will spend time only with you and the people you're traveling with. ***Go at your own pace. You can see as much as you can or slow things down to a saunter. With me as your private guide, your day is flexible. ***Benefit from a local's knowledge. You can access more intimate, out of the way spots that have never seen a bus tour. ***Every tour is customizable. See the sights YOU want, try the food YOU crave, learn about what interests YOU . ***CUSTOMIZED TOURS can also be developed combining specific tours developed by the guides in the Israel Toursbylocals community that you may be interested in and my role is to help create an overall itinerary that makes the most sense in maximizing your Israel experience. Feel free to be in contact and I will be delighted to assist you develop a personal tour for your Israel travels.

Overview of your Jerusalem tour

An introductory tour to Jerusalem as part of your initial encounter with the City . Take the pressure off from orientating yourself to this amazing city by taking a tour with me that is as much a discovery of your own personal Jerusalem as it is of the incredible historic and cultural attractions held within its' walls and without. I specialize in customizing and personalizing tours - a walking tour becomes an adventure to see and experience from close up , taking the right amount of time to visit the wide range of historic , religious and cultural sites ; for encounters with locals , for moments of self reflection, for panoramic views , exploring rooftops , underground tunnels and caves or the buzz of the markets. Gain an overall impressionistic sweep of the City but where I will also be able to provide you with details of what to see, where to eat , where to go and who to meet as you continue to be amazed by Jerusalem.

Your Jerusalem tour itinerary

Your tour of Jerusalem Old City can start with us meeting at your hotel or near the Jaffa Gate entrance to the Old City . If possible I like to begin tours with a big panoramic view from the Tower of David Museum rooftop lookout situated near Jaffa gate. The City is spread below us in all its grandeur and we can begin to mark out our exploration based on my understandings and your interests the four historic Quarters of the Old City : Christian , Armenian , Jewish and Muslim . Your comprehensive tour can include chosen "must see "highlights : the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the Western Wall , the Temple Mount ( if open ) , Mount Zion , Gethsemane and the Mount of Olives , historic neighborhoods of the New City , Old and New City markets and eateries and much more. It's your tour so it does end up being custom designed . This is a walking tour but transport by taxis can be arranged to maximize the experience.
