Free guided Israel tours

As globally the tourist and conference industry struggle get people into the air various forms of initiative are beginning to emerge.

Typical is Israel where with Government support tens of thousands of free tours are now being offered every day of the week through the websites of the Nature and Parks Authority and various cities.

To date, more than 1,800 tour guides have responded to the invitation to participate in the project. Tours will shortly be offered in English, Russian, French and Arabic in addition to the Hebrew-guided tours currently available.

Israel Minister of Tourism, Yoel Razvozov, said: “After two challenging years for the tourism industry, we have here a great opportunity to help tour guides and, finally, to get out from Zoom and return to sanity, to take our friends and family at no cost and enjoy guided tours in cities and nature reserves. So, take a guide and go touring!”

Tourism in Israel has steadily grown, with 2018 seeing a record four million+ inbound tourists.  It is home to a number of UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the white city of Tel Aviv, the Old City of Jerusalem, Acre and Masada.
