This special tour goes beyond what one would typically expect from a “Holy Land” tour in that participants are able to experience Israel both within its modern and historical contexts. We will meet Arabs, Druze, religious and secular Jews. Tour participants will have the unique opportunity to explore the many difficult issues facing Israel today, such as the security fence, the Israeli settlements within Judea and Samaria, what it would mean if Israel yields the Golan Heights to Syria, as well as hearing first-hand from families who have been victims of terror. On this tour, you will join us in exploring the different cultures within Israel. For example, we will enjoy a traditional meal in a Druze village, experience an exciting evening in a Bedouin tent with a traditional dinner and camel ride, and visit a Kibbutz. We will also meet both Jewish and Arab believers in the Land and hear their testimonies and the difficulties they face as believers. And of course, participants will join us as we walk in the footsteps of our Messiah, which will give us a deeper understanding and appreciation of Him and the Bible.
