Itinerary

Jerusalem Exploration
TEL AVIV-1 Day Excursion
TEL AVIV EXCEPTIONAL EXCURSION On our 3rd morning, we will be picked up from our hotel (post-yoga) for a glorious private day tour to Jerusalem. We will head to the Old City of Jerusalem where we will be introduced to this incredible place of intense sanctity to Jews, Christians and Muslims, where holy sites seem to tumble over each other. Our expert guide will unpeel layers of history and provide an overview of what Jerusalem means to the three monotheistic religions. We will visit the sites most holy to these three faiths: -The Church of the Holy Sepulchre -The Kotel (Western Wall of the Second Temple) -Dome of the Rock On the way back to Tel Aviv, we will stop (and shop!) at Yvel a complex set in a stunning old Jerusalem Stone complex. This Yvel history is about a South American immigrant who built a successful jewellery design company and now employs Ethiopian immigrants. We will meet some of these wonderful workers and the very special factory floor and display room. We are so excited to support this very special centre.

Shari discovered the unlimited and positive effects of a consistent yoga practice over 12 years ago in San Francisco, California. Her journey included numerous disciplines, but it wasn't until Ashtanga that she found her true yoga passion and was certified in 2010 in Florence, Italy (her other passion!). She now enjoys teaching a vigorous, playful and challenging Ashtanga Flow Class accompanied by an equally dynamic playlist. She hopes through her teaching she can inspire others with the grace and love that she has found. Shari has been leading yoga retreats and holidays for over 2 years in amazing locations from Belize to India to Morocco and all over her adopted and gorgeous country, Italy.
