David is an incredible tour guide. We had the best day in Jerusalem and he really brought this incredible city to life. We were with our children who are 7&9 and he kept them engaged and enthralled. We wholeheartedly recommend David!!!

My family (including my spouse, 2 teen daughters and a 9yr old) took a tour of Jerusalem with David Gurevich this week and had a very engaging and enriching experience. David took us to vantage points and into several lesser known gems (like the church of Alexander Nevsky) that helped us piece together and make sense of the history of this ancient city in a very unique way. He was also responsive to our kids’ occasional desire for snack breaks (loved our lunch stop at the Austrian Hospice!) and included them in helping tell the story of the sites we visited. His maps of what the city may have looked like during various periods helped tremendously to bring the ancient walls to life. We were so glad to have explored this beautiful city with David and highly recommend him as a guide.

If you are passionate about history and interested on archeology, David (or better Dr Gurevich - as he has a renowned PhD in archeology), is your choice! Needles to say, David has a deep knowledge about Israel’s history and archeology, still he brought it down to earth and made it easy for us to understand facts, theories, beliefs and anything in between! thru detailed enough explanations supported by illustrations, pictures and a Bible. He also listens and seems appreciative of other points of view. We appreciated very much this guiding approach We also loved the pace of the tour, never rushed and actually at some points I felt we may need to go faster with fear we would not cover enough ground but I was wrong, timing was perfect, he knows. He was always very sharp and on time. From our long list of things to see, there was only one we could not do as we were late (it was Election Day which made us start later than needed), still David added a couple of alternative places not originally in the plan. We are Christians and were wondering how the Christian focused day would be but we were gladly surprised as well. Touring with David was a luxury and even a couple of times other guides stopped us to say how lucky we were to be guided by Dr Gurevich!. We hired 4 private guides while in Israel, we wish David would have been our guide for the whole trip! We had to leave Israel earlier due to a family emergency, so we left some places pending to see…..I am sure we will be contacting David if we have the chance to return to Israel!
