Jerusalem Walks
with Tour Guide Leah
בס"ד
Meaningful, engaging, and inspiring experiences thoughtfully designed for families, professionals, and visitors of all backgrounds
You’ve been thinking about this trip for months, and you want your kids to love it as much as you do. We get it, and we’re here to make that happen.
On a private family tour, your kids aren’t just tagging along. The whole day is built around them. Some children learn by asking a hundred questions, some by being creative, some by just listening to great stories. We notice what lights your child up and adjust as we go, with stories, crafts, games, and prizes that turn them into real Jerusalem explorers.
No keeping up with a group, hoping it will work for your children, no confusing maps, no wondering if your plan is the best option. Just your family, at your pace, discovering Jerusalem together.
Our goal? At the end of the day, your kids turn to you and say, “That was SO cool. Thanks for bringing us!”

What to Bring & Wear
-
Comfy walking shoes with good grip. Jerusalem stone can be slippery, and white shoes won’t stay white for long!
-
A backpack, so your hands are free for exploring.
-
Water, sunhat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (put it on before we start). Some spots have little shade.
-
Snacks, just in case someone gets hungry between stops.
-
Tissues and hand sanitizer, since bathrooms aren’t always well stocked.
-
A portable charger, so you don’t miss any photo moments.
-
Modest clothing for the Western Wall and some other sites: shoulders and knees covered, no low-cut tops. Pants, skirts, and capris are all fine, or bring a scarf to throw over your outfit. Men need a head covering at the Kotel.
-
Check the weather. Jerusalem is often cooler than the rest of Israel. Ice water in summer and a fleece in winter make a big difference.

Planning the rest of your trip? I only plan only the days I guide, but I'm glad to recommend a professional trip planner. Many sites, restaurants, and activities now need advance reservations, and hours change often, so a planner makes a big difference.
