I am Maria Lando, a licensed Israeli tour guide. I make walking tours for curious travelers: archaeology with gossip, biblical stories with dusty sandals, local legends, food, music, and the people who made each place memorable. I guide in English, Hebrew, and rusty Russian. From Jerusalem and Jaffa to Caesarea, Haifa, the Galilee and the Dead Sea.
I've lived in three different countries and continents, so I can point you to the specifics of Israeli culture and customs.
I come from a versatile background: technology, Hollywood special effects and fashion. In Boston I wrote TheMathMom, a blog about the mathematics of everyday life, and made puzzles for the Boston Globe. I am an avid consumer of local culture.
