Simon says: “Come dine with me on a Combo Druze culinary & history tour"

We will visit 2 Druze towns in the north of Israel, experiencing 2 businesses that have won awards - a beautiful garden & an amazing place where Gamila Hiar has been using her knowledge of nature to create products made from 15 healing herbs grown only in the Galilee along with a combination of pure plant oils - with no artificial colours or fragrances - to produce face oils, hand & foot cream, cleansing bars, candles & more.

For brunch you will enjoy Galilean Druze salads, eggs, cheeses, olives, falafel & more, served with freshly baked Druze pita & fragrant, black coffee.

Our last stops are to the ancient 2000-year-old town of Peki'in which has a population of Druze, Christians, Muslims & 1 remaining Jewish woman. There we will visit the old synagogue & hear the story of this ancient Jewish community. There is also the cave of Rabbi Shimon who hid from the Romans in 149 CE

My daughter and I spent the most wonderful and fascinating day on the Galilee tour. It exceeded our expectations. Simon was such an informative and relaxed guide making sure we all got the most out of every location. The itinerary was perfectly chosen and timed to perfection. We were not rushed and every stop was long enough to see everything. A great combination of history, sights, impressive local entrepreneurs, a delicious lunch and a bit of local shopping. Highly recommended
Highly worthwhile!

I was on the tour of 3 Druze villages in the Galilee, and I highly recommend it. Simon our guide was informative and well organized. The lunch in Julis was very tasty. I was especially happy to visit Peki'in and the synagogue and the 2000 year old plaques it preserves, and meet the last Jewish resident of the ancient community; I had been told that they only open the synagogue for groups.

Absolutely brilliant day out with a group of 15 friends. Simon took us to the most intriguing places you would never discover on your own. Along the way, he explained so many fascinating things about the Druze community as well as the last remaining 93 year old Jewish lady in the special village of Pekin..who we met personally. He took us to Noor, a great restaurant run by a true Druze heroine of Israel. So much to see and hear. Simon is a warm, wise and thoroughly engaging guide. This is our 2nd tour with him with hopefully more to come in the future.

Simon is a great tour guide. He’s knowledgeable, patient, educated, and easy to understand. We learned so much from Simon even though we have lived in Israel for over 26 years.
