Olga received her MA in Ancient Near Eastern Studies from Moscow State University (the Center for Advanced Judaic Studies) and is now enrolled in PhD studies at Hebrew University. For the last 16 years, Olga has been teaching and guiding tours in Israel. She tours at all major archaeological sites in Jerusalem, following the most current developments at the new excavations around the city, and keeping in touch with archaeologists in the field. She enjoys giving clients a better feel for Jerusalem and Israel, bringing the complicated nature of the young country and the ancient land into clearer focus. Exploring Israel with clients, Olga loves to share her passion and offer an insider’s knowledge of its people and places and an educator’s eye for detail, connecting religion, tradition, history, archaeology and the modern day geopolitical realities in a way that will provoke thought and discussion.
