Let me introduce myself ,

My name is Elinor Kogan-Levy, and I am currently a resident of Ofakim, a small town in western Negev. 

I grew up in Arad in a family of immigrants from the former USSR. Since childhood, my parents raised me and my sisters to love the land and cherish the great miracle that happened to us as Jews to live in the Promised Land. A land is flowing with milk and honey. 

I served as an operations officer in the Air Force during my military service. I received my Bachelor's degree (BA) in Business Administration at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. 

After completing my studies, I had the opportunity to immigrate to Canada, where I guided students from all over the world in the city of Toronto. This work experience was the most enjoyable and gave me great pleasure and satisfaction. After several years I decided to return and settle in Israel. 

Upon arriving in Israel, I decided to expand on my prior experience, completed a course at the Jerusalem School of Tourism, and became a certified English tour guide!  

During the COVID period, I met the man who later became my husband, and following him, I returned to the South. The transition back to the South was very natural for me. 

I love people and enjoy hearing the life stories they kindly share with me while guiding groups in my favourite nature reserves and historical sites across Israel. I enjoy showing them the southern part of the country through my loving eyes, introducing them to the history, archeology and culture of the unique region where I live. My work brings me so much pleasure as I see how they smile at the place end of the day and tell me they would be happy to return.

The South of the country has a lot to offer - landscapes, stories, flavors and cultures.

I greatly enjoy showing you the Negev from a new and exciting angle.

Please feel free to contact me with any further questions. Together we will build the perfect trip for you and your group.
