ABOUT SIMON BENI

Hi, I'm Simon -  Born in 1968. Live in Shoham - which is close to the airport.

I studied History and Archaeology at Tel Aviv University and am a second generation tour guide.

For the past 20 years I have been leading groups mostly to Asia and Europe.

As a national licensed Israeli tour guide I have guided many visitors all over Israel,

I am very fortunate to do what I love + getting to know and discovering lots of new places and faces. 

looking for Jerusalem Tour Guide Reviews ? There are hundreds in my site.

 

I am self taught in photography and fine arts and I have worked as a teacher of photography in a high school for 5 years. teaching old school photography: BW film and dark room processing.  As a photographer I seek to visualize a scene before it happens, often waiting to capture a moment that will hopefully then become a great photo. 

​ 

So you could say I wear 2 hats -- my 2 hobbies history and photography fuse together into a tour - Jerusalem photo tour. For the past 6 years I designed a program in which my guests get to know Jerusalem from a different point of view, taking pictures and meeting interesting people.   I am excited to welcome you to Jerusalem...

as a client, as a dear guest, and most of all, as a friend.

In December 2021 my pictures were displayed in the Israeli pavilion as part of the international world Expo in Dubai.
