What is a Virtual Tour, Anyway?
A Virtual Tour is a tour that allows us to use modern technology for a tour from afar.
This means that from the comfort of your own home, you'll be able to tour the different sites of Israel.
Some of the tours will be of the classic sites, while others will be off the beaten path. Where the tour is will depend on YOU.
In these virtual tours, the filming of the site will de done beforehand, but the actual guiding will be LIVE.
How do we do that? Easy!
Rotem goes out to record the site, edits down the endless hours of footage to a 40-45 minute long tour, and then plays the video and guides you via Zoom, as though we were all actually at the site.
Here's a promo video we made for a previous set of tours:
Which Sites Are Offered Virtually?
Whatever site you want! Let me know which site(s) you're interested in visiting, and we can make it happen.
Here are the sites already filmed, so all we'd need to do is schedule the time and date of the tour and we're ready.

How Much Does a Virtual Tour Cost?
Pricing on virtual tours works as follows:
- If you're interested in paying on a tour by tour basis, each tour is $400*
- If you'd like to purchase a Touring Trio, where you can choose which three tours you'd like to do as a series, the total for the three tours will be $1000*
- If you're interested in a different number of tours, feel free to Contact Us and we'll get a price quote to you for the type of tour bundle you're interested in.
*prices in USD are approximate. The receipts are in NIS, and so the exact amount in USD is based on the exchange rate and credit card fees during time of purchase, and may be a bit more or less than when the price in NIS was determined.
