A different way
to experience
Israel.
Through what grows here, who grows it, and the rhythms that shape life in this place.
For me, this work comes from the feeling that in Israel, the past and present are still close enough to touch, in the fields, in the seasons, in the food, and in the memories we bring with us and create along the way.
The guide behind the experience.
I’m a licensed tour guide based in Zichron Yaakov, and have been guiding for over a decade, working primarily with English-speaking clients.
I made aliyah from the U.S. over two decades ago, but my relationship with Israel began much earlier. As a child, I spent summers here with my Yemenite grandparents and extended family, absorbing the feeling of family, language, food, and place all woven together.
Years later, making aliyah was also about wanting to live more fully in the rhythm of this country, in a place where my holidays and calendar were woven into the life around me. That connection between land, seasons, and holidays is at the heart of the experiences I create and share with guests.
My guiding style is attentive and detail-oriented, while also able to go with your flow. I tend to notice the smaller details and appreciate the magic of a great story.
The experience
What makes this way of moving through Israel uniquely Israeli is the closeness between past and present, where agriculture still reflects a continuity of thousands of years that can be experienced directly through the land and everyday life.
Along the way, we may meet winemakers, artisans, growers, and local producers whose work follows the agricultural rhythms of this place, grape harvest, olive harvest, spring blossoms, ripening fruit, and the changing cycles of the Jewish calendar.
Small, self formed groups
These are small, self-formed groups, friends or family who have chosen to spend the day together, often looking for something more considered, with time to notice and engage.
For people who are curious
This is for people who are curious about what is behind the food, who grows and makes it, where it comes from, and what it reveals about this place.
Where we go
My work is focused in and around Zichron Yaakov, Binyamina–Givat Ada, Pardes Chana–Karkur, the Carmel Coast, Emek Hefer, and Emek Yizrael.
I also guide more broadly, depending on the interests of the group.
If this resonates, I’d be happy to connect.
