Private, Family, and Public Museum Tours — Israel Museum, the Met, and Beyond

“This tour is appropriate for families, as Nachliel maintains the unique ability to present the material simultaneously to adults and children, engaging both me and my 11-year-old son for several hours.”

“Brilliant and captivating for all ages! Nachliel has guided my family on multiple tours, each one truly memorable for both us parents and our children, ranging from ages 4 to 12. He has a special way of connecting with the children — imbuing his expertise in archaeology and history to all ages, with many laughs along the way. After our tour of the Old City, my son said: ‘Before, I knew nothing about it. After, I feel like I know everything!’”

“Nachliel knows his stuff — he can create a unique blend of the ancient and the modern, as he tickles your imagination at the Met. A deep, impressive dive into Jewish History. Dive in!”

“Amazing with kids, fun for adults too. Our kids didn’t want to go to any museums — that changed the moment they met Nachliel. His humour and interactive style won them over, and he knows how to talk to kids and adults alike. He keeps tabs on the energy of the group and whether the kids are still into it, and adjusts the tour accordingly. They wouldn’t have been half as interested without him.”

“Nachliel is a superb guide and educator. He combines deep knowledge of both academic and religious subjects and the ability to hold people’s attention for seemingly archaic subjects. Book him!”

“We did a Chanukkah tour at the Bible Lands Museum with Nachliel — ‘A Cultural Clash.’ He used the Greek exhibition to explain how Hellenistic culture collided with the conservative, Torah-following Jews. You don’t realize 2 hours have gone by, and you learn so much!”

“We’ve done many tours with Nachliel over the years, both in-person and online. Nachliel is the best of educators. His tours are a great joy for me and for my children — he weaves museum artifacts into coherent themes and exciting stories.”

“He was able to bring the material to the level of the younger children and also open the eyes of the adults. He was great at helping the kids see the ‘hidden connections’ — you could see it clicking in their faces. He uses props, personality and energy to engage the entire group. My older son asked when we can do another tour with The Museum Guy!”

“Nachliel is so knowledgeable and makes his tours interesting and engaging for all ages. He really brings his subject matter to life and makes every museum visit an adventure. I’ve done tours with him at the Met, the British Museum, and the Israel Museum.”

“I have visited the Met countless times and seen the permanent exhibits over and over. After my tour with Nachliel, exhibits I had just given a glance to in the past became fascinating. High-impact tour combo.”

“We toured the Met with The Museum Guy on his Hanukkah tour and were highly impressed. The tour was not chronological but thematic — and it made sense. Nachliel set the context of the Hanukkah story using many artifacts you’d otherwise walk right past.”

“Our family really enjoyed the Pesach tour with Nachliel at the Israel Museum. He created an experience both meaningful and accessible, weaving together archaeology, history, and Jewish tradition in a way that brought the story of Yetziat Mitzrayim to life.”

“It was my pleasure to share in Nachliel’s tour at the Israel Museum. The rooms of archaeology brought us into the Phoenician, Mycenaean and Roman periods. We journeyed through cultures, lands and peoples with the interplays and influences clearly drawn.”
