About shvil.io
What shvil.io Is
shvil.io is a direct marketplace for travelers and licensed Israeli tour guides.
Search in one place. Compare guides and tours. Then talk directly with the person who will show you around.
No commissions. No booking fees. No middleman between you and your guide.
What shvil.io Is Not
We're not a big tour operator with buses and hotel blocks. We don't sell fixed itineraries or push you into a package.
We're not an open directory either. Every guide on shvil.io is a licensed professional, reviewed before they go public.
Why Licensed Guides Matter
A licensed Israeli guide has completed formal training with the Ministry of Tourism — history, geography, religions, culture, safety, and guiding practice — and passed the exams. They're required by law to carry insurance and keep their CPR certification current.
This is a legal status, not a certificate you print at home. And it's what makes the difference between a trip that skims the surface and one that stays with you.

Complaints
▼
If something didn't go as expected, please talk to your guide first — most things get sorted quickly that way. If it doesn't, email us with the guide's name, the dates, and what happened.
We read every message, may reach out to the guide for their side, and we'll follow up with you. Complaints are handled privately — we don't publish them as public reviews.
