Tova Gilead

Tova Gilead As a tour operator since 1982, I have arranged Bar/Bat Mitzvah tours for thousands of families. Although these tours are my business, they are also my pleasure.

In addition to Israel, I offer Jewish Heritage tours to Central Europe and Spain giving you a wider choice of enriching travel experiences. Since 1982, I have operated family tours to Israel, most including a Bar/Bat Mitzvah service. Personal attention and attention to detail are the hallmarks of my tours.

April, 2023 - We had a magnificent week of vacation. We were impressed with the array of things we were able to do. The time in Jordan was incredible, and a large draw for us to travel to that part of the world. Wadi Rum was a particular highlight and somewhat unexpected as we were really thinking mostly of Petra.

Dec. 2022 Tour - Neot Kedumim was really interesting and the tour guide there was very engaging. We loved the tour of plants and the ancient olive oil press. It was also really fun to make our own oil lamps. Emily, AZ

The seven-branched Menorah was placed in the Tabernacle and later in the Temple in Jerusalem. It has always been a symbol of the Jewish people and has become the symbol of the State of Israel. The bronze Menorah sculpture pictured here is situated opposite the Knesset. It has 30 reliefs that tell the story of the Jewish people.

Travel to Israel is back!
On his first day Jack wrote: "We stopped at Mount Scopus for a spectacular view of Jerusalem while we recited the Shehechiyanu blessing and a l’chiam." It was a great feeling just being here in Jerusalem. I learned a bible quote: If I forget Jerusalem, may I lose my right hand."
