Guide details:
Natanel – Traveling with Natanel
"This is where I live, in the Judean Desert, between my two great loves – Jerusalem, my hometown, and the Dead Sea. Twenty minutes from Jerusalem, twenty minutes from the Dead Sea.
I guide tours in Hebrew for Israelis and in English for tourists from Jerusalem to the sea: Jerusalem, the Judean Desert, and the Dead Sea. For those who enjoy eating, walking, or listening, I organize fun days and team-building activities for companies and organizations, as well as trips for families, including riddles for children.
