Award-winning tour operator Israel Tour Connection (ITC) is now offering its acclaimed 14-night Jewish Heritage Tour year-round. This extended Jewish Heritage Tour caters to travelers who want to explore their heritage and walk in the footsteps of their ancestors.
/EINPresswire.com/Livingston, NJ - October 27, 2011 - ITC's popular 14-night Jewish Heritage Tour now departs most weeks of the year. The tour introduces visitors to a vast selection of historic, archaeological, and cultural sites in Israel while allowing them to explore the country's natural beauty. Offering an intimate view of Israel, the tour is suited to those who want to fortify their Jewish identity and faith.
Larry Ritter, the CEO of ITC, said, "The Jewish Heritage Tour celebrates 5,000 years of Jewish heritage and offers the ultimate Israel experience. Whether it's your first time or tenth time visiting Israel, this tour will bring you closer to the land, the history, and the people. It is appropriate for people of all ages and incorporates an abundance of hands-on activities for the little ones."
The Jewish Heritage Tour is led by passionate, knowledgeable, and bilingual guides who have been educated and certified by the Israeli government. The guides stay abreast of current affairs, so they know what's new and essential to see.
Highlights of the Jewish Heritage Tour include visits to the Old City and New City of Jerusalem, a jeep tour in the Galilee, and an overnight stay at a Kibbutz guesthouse. Other sites of interest that tour participants visit include the following:
* Independence Hall, where the establishment of the State of Israel was declared
* Yad Mordechai, a Kibbutz named after Mordechai Anilevitz, leader of the Warsaw Ghetto
* Eilat, a coastal town that's home to one of the largest underwater observatories in the world
* Qumran, the archaeological site where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found
* Masada, an ancient fortress overlooking the Dead Sea
* Safed, center of the Kaballa movement
One customer had this to say about the Jewish Heritage Tour: "Now that I have a bit of time, I wanted to let you know how much Sonni and I loved our Jewish Heritage Tour that you arranged. Everything was wonderful, and we thank you for making it so… [The guides] were all dedicated and highly educated and knowledgeable professionals, which is so necessary with this type of travel experience."
The 14-night Jewish Heritage Tour arrives at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv on Wednesdays. During the trip, participants ride on a deluxe motor coach and stay at comfortable hotels that serve the famous "Israeli Breakfast." Other amenities included in the Jewish Heritage Tour are airport transfers from/to Ben Gurion Airport, dinners at Kibbutz Lavi, and lunch and the use of spa facilities at a leading Dead Sea hotel. An optional trip to Petra, Jordan is offered at an additional charge.
