Michal made our special 20th anniversary trip to Israel fantastic! It was just my husband and me, and I feel like we connected with her quickly and she quickly understood our preferences. We toured Old City of Jerusalem, Bethlehem, the Israel Museum, the Machne Yeudah Market, Masada, the Dead Sea, and more. She also took us to an area in the Old City where most tourists don’t have the time to visit – it was amazing, and I was so appreciative to see Bible history come to life in an area that was more “untouched” and still being explored. Michal was extremely knowledgeable about both Jewish and Christian history. And, she tailored our tour based on our belief system. I learned so much, and feel truly blessed by the experience in Israel and being led by Michal. My husband and I highly recommend Michal and having a private tour guide vs. a group.

Michal is extremely knowledgeable, perceptive, charming and flexible. We were a small group, myself and two of my sisters, with just one full day to spend in Jerusalem. She tailored our tour to suit our interests and our needs, even as our day evolved.

Michal is fantastic!!
Apr 2017 • Family
We spent an entire day with Michal at Masada and the Dead Sea and the ride to and from Jerusalem. We toured with young kids and native English and Hebrew speakers. She was able to engage everyone. She fielded tough questions from preteens and adults. She is extremely knowledgable and has an easy going approach. She is friendly and made the day special. Without hesitation, I'd recommend her for families.

Amazing time In Israel! Michal is the Best!
Jan 2020
My family, (Wife and daughters age 21 and 19) hired took a 10 day trip to Israel. For 6 of the days we hired Michal to guide us touring, We spent one day in the Dead Sea/Masada area, three days in Jerusalem, and two days in the areas around the Sea of Galilee. Michal was absolutely amazing! She had complete knowledge of all these areas. Myself, being a pastor, I wanted to walk a visit the places of Jesus ministry on earth. Michal was extremely knowledgable of Christianity and The Bible and read a verse from the Bible at almost every place we visited. In addition, being born in Israel, she was also extremely knowledgeable of Judaism and the Old Testament and also Islam. She was able to explain as every site how all these religions have controlled/built/impacted the places throughout history. She is also an archeologist so she was able use archeology to to explain the how, why and time periods of sites visited. Michael loves what she does and it is evident. She is enthusiastic when she speaks, asks questions, and got us involved and drawn into the experience and helped our imagination of what we were seeing. She was able to relate information to my wife and I, but also with my daughters and they connected with her and loved her as well. Michal became part of our family those 6 days. I can't imagine another guide that would have been more perfect for our family. I highly recommend Michal to any one traveling to Israel wether for a day tour or several days like we did. Michal made our trip one of a lifetime that we will never forget!

Time well spent!
Sep 2019 • Couples
We had been to Israel once before and we wanted to see some places we had seen before and some new ones. Michal planned a great day for us! As an archeologist, she has a great deal of knowledge that she shares passionately. She also knows quite a bit about the 3 religions that share love of Jerusalem. After our historical tour, we did a culinary tour of a market. She picked very unusual and yummy places to stop and eat. As we ended our tour she showed us how to catch the light rail back to our hotel. It was a lovely day, time very well spent with an extremely knowledgeable young woman!

An amazing tour guide!
Oct 2018 • Family
I'm a bit ashamed to have taken so long to write this review.. our time with Michal was unforgettable!

We didn't really know where to go but Michal had wonderfully led the way and helped us find the most memorable locations for us!

I was mostly excited about the amount of knowledge Michal shared with us and with such talent.. I mostly loved the stories of Tel aviv and Jerusalem (David's tower and Neve zedek).

I highly recommend Michal as a tour guide

P.s. she also suggested some of the best restaurants in our trip and had some great veggie option for my wife.

Eating Israel 2019
Mar 2019 • Business
Michal was a terrific guide for my culinary group. She was very approachable and was especially passionate about food and archaeology guiding us through markets and museums with knowledge and enthusiasm. And she seamlessly did what many guests do not even notice - she co-ordinated with our driver to make sure we were everywhere on time and called ahead to all our events so that they knew when to expect us. She also calmly re-organized things at a moments notice if we had to alter the itinerary. It was my pleasure to work with her.

The best way to see Israel is with Michal as your guide!
Feb 2019 • Solo
Michal was our Israeli guide on a recent culinary tour I took to Israel. We had a diverse group of North Americans who for some it was the first visit to Israel. Michal managed to exceed all our expectations, she was excellent at accommodating the group’s needs and was very creative at coming up with back up itineraries for when the weather did not cooperate. Her solid background as an archeologist help bring many of the stories of ancient Israel to life and deepened our understanding of the complexities of the country and region through the centuries.
Michal was always willing to answer questions and made every effort to make sure our group was having a true Israeli experience.
I would definitely use Michal as a tour guide on my family’s future visits to Israel.
With her charismatic personality and Israeli charm she contributed greatly to the success of our trip and gave our group the perfect intro to diverse and rich Israeli culture and life.
Thank you Michal for making sure we had a wonderful once in a life time experience.

Michal is an amazing tour guide!
Dec 2018 • Couples
My husband and I just returned from Israel on a 12 day trip around the whole country, and are so grateful to have met and been guided by Michal. She is a very personable, knowledgable, patient, and engaging tour guide who we also now consider a friend. She makes all the sites and cities come to life with her extensive knowledge of and passion for history, culture, archaeology, religion, current events, and more. We had fascinating discussions with her throughout our trip especially during our long car rides. She was also very accommodating to our preferences, including wanting to adjust the itinerary on the fly.

Michal guided us through the old city in Jerusalem, Yad Vashem, the Israel Museum, Masada, Ein Gedi, the Dead Sea, Tzefat, Haifa, Caesaria, and Tel Aviv. Though I had been to Israel 3 times prior to this trip and had already visited many of these sites, Michal's insights and stories and descriptions really embellished how I remembered them. She made our trip to Israel so interesting and memorable.

We couldn't have asked for a better guide in Israel, and we highly recommend Michal for day trips and/or extended trips like ours for couples or families and larger groups. We are confident she will exceed your expectations
