This is a fantastic tour, one of the best we have ever been on. Eyal was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a complete overview of Haifa. So many details that we knew nothing about even though we have visited Haifa many times. I highly recommend this tour. Perfect if you like history.

I joined a free walking tour with Eyal, and it was outstanding in every possible way. Eyal is an exceptionally intelligent guide whose knowledge goes far beyond the standard tour content. What truly sets him apart is the depth and breadth of his understanding history, politics, geography, society, and countless other topics. You can ask him literally anything that comes to mind, and his answers are consistently precise, nuanced, and impressively well informed. Equally remarkable is how he delivers this knowledge. Eyal has a very calm, composed presence and explains even complex subjects with great patience and clarity. There is no rush, no arrogance just a genuine passion for sharing insight and engaging in meaningful dialogue. The experience felt less like a typical walking tour and more like an intellectually stimulating conversation with someone who truly understands the place on multiple levels. At times, his ability to connect different topics and answer difficult questions so effortlessly was honestly breathtaking almost disorienting in the best possible way. It’s rare to encounter a guide who is not only knowledgeable, but also reflective, thoughtful, and deeply engaging as a human being. If you are looking for more than just dates, landmarks, and anecdotes if you want a tour that challenges your thinking and leaves you genuinely enriched Eyal is the guide you should choose. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend Dr. Eial Dujovny’s Haifa Free Tour of Bahai Garden Overlook and Carmel Center. I didn’t arrive to Eial’s tour by accident. I have been living in Haifa close to 20 years, and in the past, I have attended Eial’s lectures on Haifa’s history, but on this walk he was able to delight me with more information of which I was unaware. Eial trained as an anthropologist, and he is a guide licensed by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism. He is a passionate educator and thrives when telling stories about our city and our country. Our small group met Eial early Friday afternoon on the Louis Promenade overlooking the spectacular vista including the gold domed Bahá’í Shrine of the Bab with its surrounding formal gardens, Haifa’s lower city with its boulevards, towers, houses, and businesses, the deep water port sporting its white and orange cranes serving container ships, Haifa Bay – congested by freighters that speckled the adjacent Mediterranean Sea, and a panorama extending beyond Akko (Acre) in the north toward the mountains of Lebanon which are visible to the eye when weather permits. Our walk was under two kilometers and included the promenade named after Louis Recanati, a stop outside the Tikotin Museum of Japanese Art, the Obelisk of the Kaiser commemorating the 1898 visit of German Emperor Kaiser Wilhelm II, the Rutenberg House, Carmel Center, and the Haifa Auditorium. Eial wove a narrative of the city and the region dating from ancient times to the present. Ruling powers including Canaanites, Israelites, Hellenistic Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arab Caliphates, Fatimids, Crusaders, Saladin’s Ayyubids, Mamluks, Ottomans, British and Israelis who controlled the area. Today’s residents form a mosaic of Jews, Druze, Sunni Muslims, a large variety of Christians, Baha’is, and Ahmadis. Modern Haifa was heavily influenced by the German Templers (a 19th Century Protestant sect, not to be confused with the Crusade era Knights Templar). The city was liberated from the Ottoman Turks by the Jodhpur Lancers of the Indian Army cavalry during the First World War. Eial related all of these facts and more during the limited time available for the tour. If you want to see the city’s magnificent views and learn about its multifaceted history, you can’t go wrong with Eial as your guide.

Eyal was an excellent tour guide with an in depth knowledge of Haifa and love for the city. He took me along the Louis Promenade to the Baha'i Garden overlook and Carmel Center. Though I am Israeli and have been here in Haifa countless times, he showed me sides of the city that I had never experienced before. I originally was scheduled to tour on Friday, but due to strong rains during the day I did the tour on Saturday instead. Eyal was really flexible and accommodating under the circumstances. I was surprised to be the only guest, but Eyal was gracious and I had a wonderful private tour in the end.

Eyal was great. In walking a short distance (in my own neighborhood) we traversed thousands of years of history, and learned about the tangled web of geopolitics. I gained new insights about my beloved city.

Eyal's encyclopedic knowledge of Haifa's history beings a depth that few tours can match. The personal histories of the players intertwined with the local and geopolitical happenings brings an appreciation of the views and buildings that is really exceptional.

Truly a unique experience. If you are looking for an intriguing, personal and deep dive into the history of the city this is the tour for you. As a Haifa resident myself I was surprised about how much I had to learn about my own city. To put it simply, charming, well thoughtout and researched, casual walking and sprinkled with first hand stories, would definitely recommend.

Eial verfügt über ein außerordentliches Wissen über Haifa, und man spürt, dass er eine persönliche Verbindung zu diesem Ort hat, nicht nur, weil er hier lebt, sondern weil er extrem tief in die Geschichte dieser Stadt eingetaucht ist. Er liefert umfassende Informationen, kombiniert diese mit interessanten, erhellende und oft auch heiteren Geschichten, und jede Frage, die man ihm stellt, führt einen noch weiter in die hochinteressante Geschichte dieser Stadt Haifa hinein. Eial konnte man nicht nur gut zuhören, es war ein Genuss! Meine unbedingte Empfehlung. Schade, dass es nur fünf Sterne gibt.
