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!

MoreWe had an amazing experience with Yaron. It was a trip in the old city of Jerusalem. 4 families with little kids of different ages between 4- and 15. Yaron not only made it fascinating for us, grown ups but the the kids as well. He has a vast knowledge in history and his knowledge of Jerusalem is extraordinary. He has an approach to kids. And days later our kids remembered a lot of stuff that he told us during a trip. I really recommend him. You will definitely it. The trip took about 5 hours but it felt that the time passed so fast that in spite of the fact that it was really hot (August) we really enjoyed it.

Thank you guys. I will tell everyone I know to hire just and only you when they are coming to Israel.

MoreThis is the third trip to Israel that we have connected My Israel Guide Travel Company to guide us around the country - and it has been a fantastic trip every time! Yaron is very personable as well as knowledgeable. He answered every question we had. He built for us a great itinerary with a long list of fun and interesting things to do in Israel. His tour operator also helped us with airport transportation (in and out within minutes!), dinner reservations, and hotel accommodations. Yaron and his team are very friendly, outgoing, and always arrived on time, driving around in a clean, air conditioned van.
