Israel Tours

Shalom. My name is Shmuel Browns and I am a tour guide, licensed by the Israel Ministry of Tourism. If you’re looking for a guide and help in planning your Israel trip then contact me to get started. I help individuals, families and groups create personalized itineraries that balance their interests, time, and budget.

With a guide and a map you’re ready to discover Israel.

I guide the whole country, from Dan to Beersheva and am a native English speaker (also fluent in Hebrew). When you hire me, you get a knowledgeable and experienced guide who is passionate about Israel.

“… a very professional and dedicated guide – Shmuel was super – he went above and beyond what was expected and left us with one of the most beautiful days of memories of our trip – He was patient and kind and incredibly knowledgeable! An exceptional guide who I highly recommend!!!”

“Please put our comment on your web site that the tour was excellent, full of very interesting information, you led it at our pace and we learned so much. You are truly an expert in all things Herod. The personal attention to our needs and the warm friendship made the day so memorable. Oh! and by the way the day was great value for money.” Ray and Beryl Briddon (UK)

“We recently completed our tour to the Dead Sea with guide Shmuel Browns” and it was wonderful. The region, sights and locale we give a 10, but our guide deserves more than an 11. He was the perfect choice for us… fielding questions regarding places not even on the tour. Certainly a well versed guide with knowledge, integrity and a means of making the seemingly unrelated pieces… relate. His empathy was even able to bring a 47 year old memory back to life, making him a large part of a now lifetime memory.” Rick Cohen (US)

Left things to the last minute? — contact me right away, phone numbers and email are on my business card. The image is from a sumi 墨絵, Japanese brush painting that I did of Jerusalem’s Old City.

Israel is a deeply fascinating and varied country. I do tours focussed on archaeology, art and architecture; religion, history and culture; nature; food and wine.
