This was our first time to Israel and Yarone was our first guide. He was wonderful and very knowledgeable. He explained everything so well and there was a lot of information. I would tell anyone to book a private tour with him. You won't regret it.

ABOUT MYSELF
Shalom and welcome to Israel!
My name is Yaron (Jaron) Hovav, 33 years old, born, raised and based today in Jerusalem. I’m married and I have two beautiful daughters. I have a BA in communications and a Licensed Tour Guide certificate from the Israeli Ministry of Tourism.
I have always been a ‘freak’ of history and geography and in the last 10 years I have turned it into my profession. I would be delighted to take you through the streets of Jerusalem, Masada & Dead Sea, Tel Aviv & Old Jaffa, Sea of Galilee & Golan Heights – and talk with you about history, archeology, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, geopolitics, wars and what not.
The fact that I am a former Concierge at the Waldorf Astoria becomes very handy when it comes to Hi-End tourism, not only in terms of luxuries guided tours but also in terms of consulting about activities around Israel, recommending the best restaurants, car services and the most important thing – design an exclusive itinerary just for you.
contact me and l will take it from there!

“Interesting and tailor made tour in Jerusalem”
After a intake phone call weeks before, Yaron organised a great and interesting tour for our group of twelve, showing us the main sights in the old town of Jerusalem. A patient and very kind guide who obviously knows and can tell a lot about the city, both religious and more earthy matters,...
MoreAfter a intake phone call weeks before, Yaron organised a great and interesting tour for our group of twelve, showing us the main sights in the old town of Jerusalem. A patient and very kind guide who obviously knows and can tell a lot about the city, both religious and more earthy matters, all in a informal and colourful fashion. Yaron gives an honest answer to your questions and was, during the tour we had, able to improvise when us thirsty gentlemen needed refreshments underway. No doubt we would hire him again the next time.
