City Shul's "Behind the Scenes" Tour of Israel
Take a fresh look at an ancient land with Rabbi Elyse Goldstein on this ground-breaking behind the scenes tour, together with MEJDI Tours, a unique educational tour company praised by Forbes magazine and created in partnership by Israelis, Palestinians, Arabs, and Jews, and our local experts at Aufgang Travel. With a different theme devoted to each day, you will have the opportunity to explore bohemian neighbourhoods of Tel Aviv, be wowed by the latest technology coming out of the Israeli start-up scene, travel deep into the Negev desert, enjoy rich cultures, and savour authentic home-cooked ethnic cuisine. Experience Israel’s diversity through a broad array of guides and speakers—artists, craftspeople, entrepreneurs, rabbis, activists and peacemakers, Jews, Christians, Muslims, and everything in between. With time for discussion, reflection, and relaxation, we investigate the complex issues facing Israel, explore prospects for security and peace in the region, and celebrate the hospitality and culture of Israel’s most unique local people and communities, many of whom you’d never have the opportunity to meet on your own! With a special ALL INCLUSIVE LAND PRICE that covers everything: hotels, all meals and wine with dinner, entrances, speakers, AND all tips, you can just sit back and take it all in without stress.
