Possessed of an encyclopaedic knowledge of modern and ancient history and with his own personal experiences to access, Uri is perfectly placed to lead knowledgeable and information hungry groups through the Holy Land. Equally important, he has the personal skills to understand how much information is required and when so that you don’t receive information when what you really want is a moment of quiet. All combined, it made our ten day trip very special. I can unreservedly recommend him to any group. Jamie YPO BCWe were with Uri for a week and his guidance was absolutely exceptional. He is not only friendly and funny, he gave us an education that changed our views entirely of the Middle East. We highly recommend him.
