MY SERVICE
General information about my city tours and excursion programs
I work as a German-speaking and English-speaking tour guide all over Israel. My main focus is the organization and implementation of city tours, study trips and pilgrimage trips through all of Israel. I completed my intensive two-year training as a national licensed tour guide in Israel at the National School of Tourism.
​I love meeting people from all over the world. What is very important to me is to offer my guests interesting tours that they will remember for a long time.
​
When I'm not taking guests through the country, I'm always busy researching new and interesting places in order to be able to show my guests new corners and gems of this multi-faceted country that has to offer so much.
​
Since all of my tours are offered as private tours, each tour can be tailored to your personal wishes. Send me an email with your special requests.
​
Meeting point and start time of all tours: according to your personal request
​
In general, the tours do not include:
Transportation (such as taking a taxi to the top of the Mount of Olives); entrance fees to the various sights or attractions; meals and drinks;
​
For day tours to the various destinations across Israel, transport costs are also not included. Depending on the number of guests, a car / minibus with a driver must be rented. From a number of 4 - 5 guests, private tours are often hardly more expensive than group tours but can a lot better satisfy your personal wishes. I would be happy to make you an offer on request. The prices for vehicle rental depend on the season. You have to rent such a vehicle with a driver, depending on size, with around € 500–650 per day and a limit of 200 km per day. I would be happy to inquire about the corresponding rental price for you in a specific case.
There are also so-called driver-guides in Israel who drive and guide at the same time. Since there is often a lot of traffic and parking problems in Israel, I prefer to give my guests information about the country and its people while driving, and thus to devote my full attention to my guests.
​
I run multi-day tours for groups in cooperation with a well-known Israeli tour operator. I would be happy to work out a special program for you. And of course you can also book your accommodation, rental cars, transfers and other services through the local travel company.
​
If you'd prefer to book your accommodation yourself and maybe look for a room in one of the kibbutzim in Israel, I can recommend you to take a look at the following website: https://www.zimmeril.com/ . Of course, you can also find many hotel and private rooms as well as kibbutzim via the well-known website Booking https://www.booking.com.
​
Please also note the various Jewish holidays in the country such as the Passover festival or the Jewish New Year festival Rosh Hashana, on which some sights can be closed or often extremely many local tourists are travelling in the country. Brief general information with current dates for the festivities can be found on this website: https://www.chabad.org/holidays/
​
It is often not possible to visit the Temple Mount, especially during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan as well as on other Muslim holidays. Please check the Muslim holidays.
​
Do you have more questions? Please do not hesitate to send me an inquiry.
​
I am looking forward to your personal inquiry!
Your Tour Guide in Israel, Doris Shneydor
