Updates from Israel

Here’s an update of our trip. We started arriving to the airport at 10pm all the way until 4am. While all of us were really hyped up, some were also significantly late, which made it officially a group trip (being early and on time is almost always impossible when you have a bunch of people…

Hello! We have officially been in Israel for almost 24 hours and are having THE best time!

We arrived in Israel yesterday around noon after a short delay out of Canada. We met up with our guide Marina who has been great.

Bus 480 arrived in Israel after a smooth trip and met our wonderful tour guide Yaacov Shabbat. We boarded the bus, and listened to a few Jerusalem theme songs on our way to a lookout point over Jerusalem. We did a quick shehechiyanu ceremony, took the pictures you see here and were on our way…

We’ve had a busy few days! We celebrated Shabbat in Jerusalem, enjoying some much needed rest! We also saw Tzfat, Tel Dan, and enjoyed some ATV driving. We then spent today visiting the Kotel, the Jewish Quarter of the Old City, and got to see the shuk! We are about to head out for a…

Bus 107 goes to Mount Arbel, the Sea of Galilee, Beit Shean for lunch, and on to Jerusalem.

Bus 905 takes on Jerusalem! Today was our first day in Jerusalem and it did not disappoint. After breakfast, our day started by welcoming our Israeli participants to the group.
