Dr. Shelley Anne Peleg offers internships, professional development, and enrichment training for tour guides, which are a professional experience that goes far beyond “regular” learning. The content combines ancient sites, historic cities, villages in the Galilee, and lesser-known corners, with an emphasis on stories that do not always fit into the classic route.
The training courses take place in the field ― throughout the Galilee, the Carmel, Ramot Menashe, and the coastal strip ― and allow for a deep, experiential, and precise acquaintance with the places themselves.
During the meetings, behind-the-scenes aspects of the work are also revealed: different interpretations, professional dilemmas, and perspectives born from field experience and acquaintance with professionals.
Each training course is an opportunity to enrich the training toolbox, discover new stories, and emerge with inspiration and ideas that are not always encountered in familiar routes.
Dr. Shelley Anne Peleg is a lecturer, guide, and researcher of the history of archaeology and the Land of Israel, who has dedicated over 25 years of work to the Israel Antiquities Authority.
Western Galilee Now is a registered non-profit grassroots organization (NGO) promoting awareness and appreciation for the region’s boutique wines, beers, food and produce, along with its cultural diversity, its historic traditions and the area’s scenic routes nestled between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea acting as a Chamber of Commerce to boutique tourism operators in the region.
We expose the visitors to the unique heritage and hospitality through workshops, culinary events, art, music, guides tours, festivals and also through our Tourist Information Center in Akko, owned by JNF USA which we were chosen to operate since Jan. 2016.
