About Tour Guide Sharona L.

About myself – Sharona L.

My parents made Aliya= emigrated from Philadelphia to Israel in 1963. So I was born in 1970 and raised here as a "sabra" – that’s what native Israelis call themselves. I grew up hearing both English and Hebrew in my home.

My family – parents, 3 siblings and myself – always liked travelling and nature. Camping and hiking are a good part of my best childhood memories. As a teenager I joined a youth hiking club which was based in the Judean Desert. The club belonged to the SPNI – Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel. During our hikes we also learned about the geology, biology and history of the places we visited.

I knew already back then, that this is what I wanted to do with my life – hike in nature and visit interesting sites and places.

After graduating high school I did my mandatory service in the Israel Defense Forces. I was a gardener, and fiercely fought against all weeds in the army bases I served in…

When released from service, I went to study "Land of Israel Studies" at the Beit-Berl Teachers College. I received a B.Ed in geography and my official Tour Guide certification from the Ministry of Tourism in 1995. I have been a tour guide ever since.

I love my job, and I love my country. I named both my sons after mountains in Israel – Tavor (20), and Bental (17).

Caesarea - a clash of cultures

Caesarea - one of ten most visited sites in Israel. The site combines a beautiful beach, a visitor center, and very impressive archeological ruins of Roman, Byzantine and Crusader cities. On tour, we shall walk through the site from south to north. We'll visit the theater, Herod's palace, the roman stadium, the byzantine tax center, the crusader walls and the harbor. Within the antiquities, we'll find hidden stories: Peter and Paul, Pontius Pilate and the Jews of the Great Revolt.

Tel Aviv

2 hours

The Israel Independence Trail

A circular walking tour in the center of Tel -Aviv - "The First Hebrew City". A mixture of old houses and ultra modern sky-scrapers. We will get to hear and see 2 stories that intertwine: The birth of the city - now the flag holder of Israels' culture, economy and liberal spirit, and the Birth Of The State - an amazing miracle of an ancient people returning to its home-land in impossible conditions. As we tour, we will get to see street art and, architecture, and feel the vibe of Tel Aviv

Galilee

2 hrs 30 mins

Zippori - “the ornament of Galilee.”

Zippori was the capital of the Galilee during the roman period. It thrived for 7 centuries. Tradition identified it as the home Virgin Mary’s parents. On our virtual tour of Zippori we shall walk through the water system, the Jewish neighborhood, the fort, and the market. We will also go in and visit the synagogue, "the Nile house", and "Dionysus house". Everywhere we turn we will see amazing mosaic floors, and all around us will be the views of the green rural lower Galilee.

Tel Aviv

2 hours

On both sides of the track

The first train in the Middle East, Jaffa - Jerusalem, was built by 1892. The west edge of the track stopped opperating in the 1970's. The abbandoned track became a neglected back yard. 50 years later, the track became a beautifull and popular park. On one side of it is Neve Tsedek, the first jewish neighbourhood out of Jaffa. On the other side - Walhalla, a German colony less known to the public. Our tour we will unfold the story of the old train, and its neighbours in the past and present.

“Sharona was excellent and made the history of Caesarea come to life!”

Sharona was extremely knowledgable and made our visit to Caesarea so interesting. She brought to life thousands of years of history and we all learned a ton. She was flexible and accomodating for our group's needs. This trip is well worth your time and money.
