oin me for a private journey from Jerusalem to Akko, using your own vehicle for maximum flexibility. We will dive into the Crusader underworld before climbing the Ottoman walls, where I will share the strategic genius that led to Napoleon’s first major defeat. A key highlight is the Old Akko Prison, where we will explore the Zionist narrative and the daring 1947 break that shook the British Mandate. From the architecture of the Al-Jazzar mosque to the bustling harbor, this tour blends world military history with the inspiring story of Israel’s birth. An expert-led, comprehensive look at a world-class heritage site. Note: Transportation not included (tour conducted in your vehicle).

  • star rating  Best tour guide and helpful - If you are planning travel to Jerusalem I highly recommend Nissim. We went during Passover week with my family and friends and we hired Nissim for a 3 hour tour... read more that turned into 4 hours because you can see his enthusiasm and love for his city. He went into detail and accuracy in his tour that kept everyone engaged for the time. He allowed all questions and took the time to answer them and we never felt rushed. He went out of his way at the end of the tour to take us the King David tower so we could see the Dome of the work from a high point since it was closed. On our trip to Jerusalem the tour with Nissim was one of the high points because we left more educated and knowledgeable on events of the past and present. Thank you Nissim!
