JEWISH TOURS FOR BUSINESS PEOPLE

1. JEWISH TOURS FOR BUSINESS PEOPLE

2. Tours with Jewish themes customized for businesspeople – usually a few hours long, or a single day. Most of the tours focus on Jerusalem, on the north – between BeitSha’arim and Safed, and on the south – the Dead Sea and Masada. Jerusalem has from time immemorial been the foundation of the existence of the Jewish people, and later Christianity and Islam. Jerusalem was “ours” for a short period following our victory over the Greeks, and “returned” to us as a united city only after the Six Day War in 1967. We will get to know Jerusalem throughout its historical periods, including the main road leading to it from Jaffa, with explanations about the battles, casualties and visits of VIPs throughout history along this road. We will visit all the important First and Second Temple period sites, and will not forsake later periods, including sites that are important to us to today, such as the Knesset and the Supreme Court building. If you promise to behave, I will consider taking you to Rahamo – one of Jerusalem’s home cooking Jewish cuisine, but you must behave!

3. Galilee and Northern Israel – the country’s green region is the site of numerous holy sites, from burial caves in which Rabbi Judah Hanasi is buried in BeitSha’arim, through his city of Zipori… and from there we will continue, via Tiberius, to Katzrin and Gamla. Katzrin and Gamla are situated in the Golan Heights, and during our visit to this area we’ll learn about the region’s much-discussed strategic importance, and of course such a visit would not be complete without visits to the renowned, award-winning wineries in the Galilee and Golan, and a taste of the wonderful Galilee cuisine. This doesn’t mean that I am not intending to visit Caesarea, Haifa and Rosh Hanikra. I just simply thought that it was so obvious… For those who prefer a southern tour – we will head to Masada, and on the way visit Qumran and take a dip in the Dead Sea. We can, of course, continue westward to the Negev and the Machteshim (craters), visit Ben Gurion’s cabin and visit some Nabataean sites – all according to the business schedule. No matter where we go – we can treat ourselves with a great massage, special dinner catered outside, or in candle lighted cave, or even accompanied by a small orchestra… maybe a singer, a magician, trampoline, outdoor games… oops! – that was my son’s birthday list.

4. Humanity, in its attempts to triumph over nature, has set the ability to fly as a goal. I haven’t grown wings, as yet, but for people whose time is very short and pockets very deep – I can organize an excursion that combines an aerial tour, with cars waiting at the various sites along the route, so as to make optimal use of the time business guests have. The sites described above are just a drop in the bucket of the wide variety of options and sites, and the tour plan will be finalized according to your instructions and wishes. As I indicated in the home page – I don’t view my work as a mission to take you to see all the sites, or as many as humanly possible.
