Welcome! I am Zohar, a fully licensed tour guide with a deep passion for sharing the layers of history, culture, and the unique culinary flavors of Israel. After a successful career in Israel’s high-tech sector as a software engineer, I decided to turn my analytical mind toward my true passion: uncovering the fascinating stories of my home. I bring the same precision and depth of research from my tech days to every tour I lead. Whether we are walking through the ancient stone alleys of Jaffa or exploring the modernist Bauhaus architecture of Tel Aviv, my goal is to make history feel alive. Travelers often tell me they appreciate my storytelling style—I don't just give you dates and facts; I share the human stories behind the landmarks. From the Byzantine era to the modern creation of Israel, I love tailoring each journey to your interests, whether you are a history buff, a foodie, or an avid photographer looking for the perfect shot. Let’s create an unforgettable experience together! I was born in Israel (Tzabar) and can enhance the tour with my unique experiences and adventures from my service in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). As a major in Paratroops units for over thirty years, I participated in five wars, beginning with the battles at the Suez Canal in 1970 and culminating in the First Lebanon War and the Intifada. My moto is- tour, experience and enjoy with a smile. MSc Industrial Engineering Technion Israeli institute of Technology (1981) Licensed Tour Guide - Ministry of Tourism
