Mystical evening tours down the allies of Akko or other cities in the Galilee. The tours take place in the early evening, starting when the sun goes down and the magical nighty stillness comes down on the city.
We will explore the Galilean streets lighting up, the new smells spreading through the air and the daylight colors becoming mysterious shadows.
We will begin (Or end) the tour with a light lecture and a glass of wine or a cup of coffee and a snack in one of the local houses.
The tour is led by Dr. Shelley Anne Peleg. Dr. Shelley Anne Peleg studied archeology at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. For the past 30 years she has been working in Conservation and Cultural Heritage. She is a former Director of the International Conservation Center (training center for practical conservation) at the Israel Antiquities Authority. Shelley is Currently an independent specialist in conservation procedures of the cultural built heritage – archeological sites and historical cities.
When Dr. Shelley Anne Peleg came to Israel as a little girl in 1974, her parents took her on a tour to Metzada. It was there she first heard of Archaeology and Yigal Yadin and declared there and then that she wants to follow in his footsteps.
