GUY LEIBOVITZ
I moved to this amazing country, Israel, when I was just 6 years old. I immediately fell in love with this land and its possibilities. I grew up in the South, close to Eilat, the southern-most city in the country – right in the middle of the desert.
.
I joined an elite special unit when I enlisted in the IDF (Israel Defense Forces). After my service, I traveled the world.
.
When I returned to Israel, I came home to study Software Engineering at Tel Aviv University. However, my love for this land and its history took me in a different direction. Today I am a licensed tour guide from the Israeli Tourism Office. During my training as a guide I studied history and archaeology.
.
I am happily married and live in a Harel, a Kibbutz between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, near where David fought Goliath.
.
Today, I have the privilege to introduce people from all over the world to the Promised Land. This is a blessing and enormous privilege.

RON SINGER
I was born in Tel Aviv, Israel. After serving in the Israel Defense Force (artillery forces), I studied Life Sciences and Molecular Biology.
Having been charmed and intrigued by the powerful beauty of this land as long as I can remember, I found myself seeking a way to share my enthusiasm and quest for answers and spiritual fulfillment. This led me to becoming a licensed tour guide.
I find endless enjoyment rediscovering and falling in love with this magical land on each tour with new friends!
HAIM SABAG
I was born and raised in Israel. I have a bachelor’s degree in Israel’s history & geography, as well as a master’s degree in business management. After leaving the Israeli army in 1987, I became involved in guiding tours. I’ve been licensed since 1990.
For the past two decades I have had the pleasure of guiding students, families with young children, retirees, Hi-Tech workers, Christian pilgrims and others in this extraordinary land. I have led hiking/nature tours, bar/bat mitzvah tours, and other special itineraries.
I enjoy sharing my wealth of knowledge concerning all aspects of our beautiful country with others — its 5000 years of history, the breathtaking natural landscapes with its wildlife, and the secret spots.
You will find my instruction vivid and colorful, spiced with interesting and relevant local stories about Israeli life, history and culture.
LIAT BUSSIBA
I was born and raised in Beer Sheva, the capital of the Negev desert. I served three years in the IDF and finished my service as an officer. I gained my BA in Biology and then my MBA.
I have always loved hiking in Israel, exploring and learning about the history of this magical land I’m so connected to. Therefore, I decided to turn my passion into my profession and today I’m a licensed tour guide from the Israeli Tourism Office. Being a tour guide allows me to follow my heart and to do what I love most; connecting people, educating and guiding them.
I think that if you love something, you do it best and this is how I feel regarding my ‘work’. I love sharing my enthusiasm and passion regarding the depth and beauty this land has. I am very devoted to my groups; I invest with all my heart in the people I guide and I try to give them the best experience they could ever have.

I’ve been a guide and and educator since 2005. Since then I’ve gained a lot of experience in guiding a wide range of groups, including Jewish and Christian themed tours, and my areas of interest include: geopolitics, history, archaeology and ecological subjects.
With a major in history at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, I’ve taught at the International School for the study of the Holocaust at Yad Vashem. Past experience also includes research of medicinal plants of the Dead Sea, being a youth guide and counselor, a history elementary school teacher and more.
I enjoy sharing my deep love and knowledge of the Land and its people with travelers, tourists and pilgrims who seek a connection to the place where history comes alive.
