Orna was amazing! Both at the Davidson Center and at the shuk tour, she was very focused on everyone’s needs. She was great with the adults and children in our group. We had a fun and educational experience!

Orna was a really great tour guide!! She shared interesting information and made the experience fun for all ages. We got to sample different dishes that were authentically Mediterranean and learn about the culture along the way.
Orna was simply fantastic! She was knowledgeable and passionate about the market’s rich history and the unique and delicious food it offers. She shared interesting anecdotes that brought the tour to life.
Thank you very much! I enjoyed our time together 🙂🙏
Amazing experience not just with the delicious food, history of the food but the stimulating conversation with Orna. She is a wealth of knowledge and so much fun. I will most certainly repeat this tour with Orna every single visit to Jersualem.
Thank you very much! I enjoyed our time together and I’m looking forward to see you again 🙂
Orna was amazing!!! Personable, knowledgeable, engaging, and a lot of fun!!! I learned so much. And the food….. highly recommend this tour.
Thank you very much Tova!
Orna was terrific. Intelligent, educated and fun to be with. Her command of the history and religions in Jerusalem is nothing short of extraordinary. And, she is so personable, that halfway through the tour it felt more like she was family. If you tour Jerusalem with her BE SURE to end it with her culinary tour of the Mahane Yahuda market.
Thank you very much, Brian! I had the privilege to spend this time with you two. Hope to see you again one day.
