Private Old Jaffa Storytelling Tour with Licensed Guide

On this tour, Jaffa becomes a stage full of impossible characters: pharaohs, prophets, Greek monsters, Ottoman governors, St Peter, Napoleon, pilgrims, fishermen and people who came here looking for a new beginning. I’m Maria Lando, a licensed Israeli tour guide who has lived between 3 cultures and guides in English, Hebrew and rusty Russian. My style is warm, curious and story-driven. I connect archaeology, biblical traditions, local legends, architecture, humor and human moments, so the stones don’t stay silent for long. At a few stops, guests may join short optional story moments with simple provided scripts. Watching is perfectly fine too. No acting skills needed, only curiosity.
