Dubi Guiding on Masada

Personal

* I’m a native born Israeli (‘Sabra’).

* I live in Tel Aviv.

* I am an officer (reserve) in the IDF (Israeli Defense Force) and still do my reserve duty occasionally.

Qualifications

Experience

* For the past 35 years I have been guiding in Israel tour groups, individuals, family tours, government official guests and business guests.

* I have had considerable experience in travel and tourism. As a guide and tour manager in Israel, Egypt, Jordan and Europe, and as a travel planner to destinations worldwide.

* I have also organized special events, seminars and incentive programs for various sizes of groups and individuals.

Style

* My individual approach comes from a keen sense of reality (and humor), and aims to be friendly, informative, and entertaining, with stories, conversation (and perhaps a little music) to illustrate some of the many facets of this richly varied and fascinating country of Israel.

Professional Connections

* I work closely with an exclusive circle of fellow Israel tour Guides, Travel Agents, Hotels and other suppliers, throughout Israel, to provide you with a high quality comprehensive service. If I can’t do it – I probably know someone who can guide you on a tour of Israel.
