Many hope to celebrate a holiday, a holy time in Israel where our ancestors once walked. There are few sights more inspiring than looking upon the walls of the Old City in Jerusalem, praying at the Western Wall, walking the Via Dolorosa or seeing the golden dome rising from the Dome of the Rock. While traveling through the country you can hike up the ancient hills of Masada, float on the Dead Sea, ski on Mt. Hermon or dive in the Red Sea. Experience the diversity of the people of Israel through all of your senses. From antiquities and art, fine wines and cuisine, to adventure on the rivers and deserts, Israel has something special to offer everyone!
It’s always exciting when my partners from Israel pay a visit. So many new and exciting changes to making the beloved Inbal Hotel in Jerusalem an impressive choice. One of my long time favorites, the Inbal enjoys a prestigious location in the heart of Jerusalem overlooking Liberty Bell Park and offers views of the Old City. Happy to have Inbal Hotel as a Signature Preferred Partner.
Thank you Murray and Nachum for a fun afternoon meeting.

'Hope' or in Hebrew, 'Tikva', so important for survival, so important for Israel.
Shabbat Shalom, May HaShem Bless Am Israel and Bring Our Hostages and IDF Home!
As Israel enters the 84th day of her was on terror against Hamas, 84 days of hostages from Israel being held by Hamas terrorists, as we celebrate the last Shabbat of 2023, it is important we retain our hope and faith for Am Israel.
“HOPE” from Holocaust to Resurrection,” a sculpture by Shoah survivor Nicky Imber. His promise after the Holocaust was to bring beauty to the world and memorialize the Holocaust. This rings so true now as we fight for our very right to exist.
'Hope' or in Hebrew, 'Tikva', so important for survival, so important for Israel.
Today, Dec 7th marks two significant dates. First, according the Hebrew calendar, Jewish people around the world celebrate the first night of Chanukah.
The story of Chanukah began when the Seceluids (part of the Greek Empire), invaded the Land of Israel in 190 BCE. Long story short, as always, those who sought to ruin the Jewish people were overthrown by a small, untrained band of Jewish men, the Maccabees (Macabim). Their small army became 12,000 men in 166BCE lead by General Judah, known as Judah the Maccabee.
They succeeded in overthrowing the enemies and regaining the holy temple. There was only a small bit of untainted oil left needed to for the light in the temple. This oil was thought enough for only one day, but by a miracle, this pure oil lasted 8 days. Therefore we celebrate the miracle of Chanukah for 8 nights and say “Nes Gadol Hya Sham,” a great miracle happened there.
This year, exactly 2 months the ago in October 7th, another enemy, Hamas, sought to destroy Israel and the Jewish people. As always, we will fight for the right of our precious homeland and our people, Am Israel.
During the lighting of the first candle tonight, we all will think about those still held hostage, of all the fallen civilians and more than 90 brave IDF soldiers and to all of the families personally affected by this war of terror.
From our home to yours, Chag Urim Sameach, Happy Chanukah.
May HaShem bless Am Israel
אִֽם־אֶשְׁכָּחֵ֥ךְ יְֽרוּשָׁלָ֗͏ִם תִּשְׁכַּ֥ח יְמִינִֽי
Im eshkachech Yerushalayim tishkach yemini".
If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand forget [its skill].
May my tongue cling to my palate, if I do not remember you, if I do not bring up Jerusalem at the beginning of my joy
Psalm 137 was written in 587 BCE (yes, look at the date) when the Babylonians tried to defeat the Jewish People by destroying the First Temple and Jerusalem, our home. As the Jewish People lamented their exile from home, this psalm described the resolve to return to Jerusalem, to their home.
Happy 75th Anniversary Israel! Though we celebrate 75 years, we are over 3000 years old.
This evening marks the observance of Yom Hashoah in Israel. Yom Hashoah is Holocaust Memorial Day in Israel. The country shuts down in observance of the atrocities and the murder of 6,000,000 Jews. Our families were slaughtered for the simple reason they were Jewish. Anti-semitism is not gone, it is actually on the rise once again worldwide and the US is not immune.
Tomorrow morning at 11:00AM, a siren of solidarity will sound countrywide in Israel. At that time, the entire country will grind to a halt. Cars and buses stop on highways, pedestrians stop walking, stores and restaurants halt business. At that time, Israel becomes one in mourning for a minute to remember the lost souls of the Holocaust.
Let the Women of Israel past and present inspire you! Join this very specially curated journey highlighting the importance of women throughout history to contemporary times in the Land of Milk and Honey.
This special trip will be a small group tour. Share your exploration with your daughters, mothers, or others to create an unforgettable experience.

Incoming tourists will be required to undergo two PCR lab tests, one before departure from home with a negative result, and one upon landing in Israel. After taking the test upon arrival, you will be asked to quarantine in your hotel for 24 hours or until your negative test is returned, whichever comes first.
Recovered foreign passport holders can enter as well. Nevertheless, we recommend to arrive with an official document stating that he/she has recovered from COVID-19 in the last few months. We have seen cases where tourists have tested positive at the Ben Gurion airport, only because they have recovered from Corona.
If you are planning to continue to Jordan they have made some changes as well beginning March 1, 2022. Please ask for details when booking your trip with us.

Great News For Israel Travel And Touring From Tikva Tours!
The pilot program to allow tourists traveling in groups into Israel has been extended indefinitely.
NOW is the time for you to make plans for your small groups to arrive in the last quarter of 2021 and complete the applications for entry to Israel. Time has come to start the process and to guarantee that your groups will be part of the pilot. All other restrictions and guidelines are still in place.
More Great News! This week, the Ben Gurion Airport Authority is starting an experiment where tourists will undergo fast serological tests (finger prick only) at the airport. Immediately after performing the serological and PCR tests at the Airport, the group can go on a tour without delay.
Of course, all of our groups will be escorted by a licensed tour educator and driver, both fully vaccinated. All of our buses, hotels, restaurants, and sights are strictly governed by Israeli health and safety protocol.

**Critical Update For Israel Travel**
Sad to say there will be a delay in travel to Israel for individuals who do not hold an Israeli passport. Big thanks to my trusted partners for getting this information out quickly as this rule changed almost overnight.

As of today, Israel Health Authorities and Government Ministries have decided to postpone the entrance of vaccinated FITs for a month in light of the increase in new cases, and added that vaccinated foreign individuals will be allowed into Israel, starting August 1st – provided that nothing unexpected happens and no further surge occurs.
The pilot for groups continues, with the same restrictions in place and special permission was granted in advance. Please know that the Israeli tourist industry is in close contact with government officials and different organizations and are working together to enable individuals to travel to Israel.”

We just heard from the Israel Incoming Tour Operator Association that the Minister of Tourism and the Minister of Health have come to an agreement and for the first phase tourists that have been vaccinated and are traveling in a group will be allowed to enter Israel starting May 23!
Results of the first phase will be examined and could lead to the possibility of expansion for individual travelers, as long as the situation stays as is , or better yet, improves.
Further details as to what additional conditions are needed, will be announced in an official document, which we expect to receive hopefully by next week.

This begins the solemn observance of Yom HaZikaron, Day of Remembrance in Israel. It is a day we salute all the fallen heroes of Israel who fought to protect the right to exist. At 11:00AM sirens will blare and the country comes to a stop for one minute. People get out of their cars on busy highways to remember the fallen. No, not a day of barbecues and picnics.
I would like to take a moment to honor an uncle I never met, Rafael ben Miriam. May you be forever in our hearts.
