Overview

The Israel Museum is Israel's largest encyclopedic museum. One can easily get lost there for hours. I know your time is limited and precious when visiting Jerusalem so I've crafted a tour in the museum that hits all the 'must see' exhibits. All the findings and references your guides will be talking about while traveling through Israel are here, on display. Through the exhibit we will rediscover the Biblical narrative in the context of the material culture and lives in the Land and surrounding territories. Some burning questions will be answered, the Bible will come alive. A story you know so well, like you've never heard it before.

I don't say this lightly, truly the single best experience I've ever had. Uri is one of the most knowledgeable people I've ever met, whose passion is complemented by his kindness.

Uri, Was a tremendous guide and leader for our group. We are already planning our next Holy Land trips. Uri gave us insights into the sites we visited and so much more.

Uri was simply amazing. He is superbly knowledgeable of Israeli history and culture, but yet totally engaging. He’s proud of his country and his Jewish heritage but also deeply respectful of Christianity. Our group felt safe with him in charge. He is a great ambassador for his country and, if I were ever able to return, would want him as my guide.

Someone in my group of 27 referred to Uri as a walking Google and he isn’t wrong. Uri knows the history, geography and Biblical relationships to places, events and things. I was privileged to have a 2 week walk through history with a passionate expert in Israel and he’s funny to boot. Uri’s style is relaxed, information packed and relevant. I literally walked through Christian history in very impactful and meaningful ways. Our group is Christian and we selected a Jewish guide versus a Christian and I’m so glad we did. Uri was open to helping us understand the differences in our 2 faiths in a beautiful way. Uri handled all access to sites, showing us places many don’t see, fast tracking us in/out of sites and even fast tracking our processing in the airport (wow). Uri officially became a member of our family. You would be crazy not to hire Uri.

I spent nearly a week on tours led by Uri. I have many friends who have been to Israel and come back raving about their guide. They all say their guide was the best. And I have been there several times myself with different guides, and almost all were fantastic. Without diminishing my own prior experiences nor friends' experiences, here's what I can say unequivocally: Uri actually is THE best. Period. Biggest fish in big pond of skilled and knowledgeable guides. Why do I say this? He is an educator. His tours are multi-disciplinary. They weave history (ancient and modern); politics; religion (different Jewish sects as well as Christianity, Islam, Druze, etc.); culture; nature; literature; psychology; music; food. He can tailor a message to restless kids, knowledge-thirsty adults, and numerous other demographics somehow all at the same time. His English is flawless. He is pure Israeli, and yet having spent significant time abroad -- including some during his formative years -- he understands people from other cultures. He could answer just about every question I threw at him (and there were many) -- whether questions of what, why, when, how. And in the *rare* instance where he didn't know, he was not afraid to admit it, and might look into it further and get back to me. There were no canned presentations or answers with Uri. He could pivot on a dime (or shekel) if circumstances necessitated a sudden change of itinerary, if an area of a site was too crowded in the moment, etc. Essentially, he is a Renaissance Man. And yet, without arrogance, but with a sense of humor. Oh, and by the way, this week of touring was over 1-1/2 years ago (I was forced to choose from a drop-down of limited dates, but it actually was December 2019). I still remember it that vividly and still am stirred by the experience. In sum, I could not endorse Uri any more highly.
