Important message from the guide
I can guide small groups, up to 6, with my comfortable Toyota Land Cruiser, anywhere in Israel. I have a specialization in Christianity and I am very familiar with the Negev Desert. I can also accompany you to Petra in Jordan. If your group is larger than 6 I can arrange transportation for that size of the group.
