We booked Danny to tour our group of 4 who happened to include a Holocaust survivor -Max (89 years old) on his first - and likely only - trip to Israel. We knew we wanted to emphasize the Jewish history in Jerusalem, but quickly found we were also interested in hearing about the other religions in the region. Two of... More

We highly recommend Danny to anyone who wants the best. Danny is a fantastic guide and a wonderful person. He is extremely knowledgable about Israel's history and conveys that information with passion and excitement. We had the privilege to spend 7 days with Danny, 2 days exploring Jerusalem and the remaining time traveling to areas around Haifa, En Gev and... More

I have started this review on several occasions and I found myself composing a dissertation on just the 2 days we spent touring with Mr. Herman, I will provide the abridged version; he gives an educated and passionate explanation of the sites you visit to the degree that you want to move to Israel and join his and Israel’s efforts....

This is the second time that I hired Danny for Jerusalem tour, and it was superb again. I asked him for a tour of Jerusalem as a city for the three main western religions. How it started, the history, and today. You can probably spend weeks talking about it but Danny is an archeologist and has a pragmatic and realistic... More

I'm sorry this review is a bit late . . . My wife and I participated in a Biblical Archeological Society tour in late October, 2012, under the guidance of Danny. It was a fabulous experience. Danny is the consummate professional, extraordinarily knowledgeable about all matters to do with archaeology. He set us up with top archaeologists for personal lectures... More

In our recent trip to Israel we had Danny give us his full-day tour of Jerusalem - with a focus on the old city. Our tour was incredible. The structure of the tour gave us all perspective of what we were looking at, what we were walking through, giving us both the historical and the religious significance to all 3... More

I did not do a tour with danny, but emailed him for advise and consultation. He could not have been more helpful and made some great recommends and ideas. Not many people would take time out to help for no financial gain, but this guy did!!!! Thanks Danny.

We rarely hire guides, but in going to Jerusalem for the first time, my wife and I felt we wanted someone who not only could tell us about the history, but also inform us about the modern living city. Danny fully met expectations and was in addition very easy to get on with and went out of his way to... More

We just returned from Israel where we got to spend three wonderful days with Danny. I said in my headline that he was terrific, but he is much more than that. He will treat you like a friend and will make it his personal responsibility to ensure your happiness and offer you the best experience possible. Danny loves Israel and... More

Just returned from a business trip to Israel and must say that the half day tour of Jerusalem with Danny was the highlight of this trip, if not almost any other trip, both business or pleasure. The way that Danny tells the story of Jerusalem, from 1000's of years before the days of Christ right up to 20th century, has... More
