Gaza Envelope Tour - Our small group visited Sderot, the Nova Festival site, and a nearby kibbutz, where we heard first-hand accounts from survivors. Our guide Eli led us through the valley of horrors that unfolded on October 7th, explaining the events with clarity and empathy. Thanks to his steady presence and well-timed humor, we made it through a very heavy subject without feeling overwhelmed.

A meaningful tour - We took a guided tour with Ben and had a very moving experience. The tour was well-organized and felt safe, and Ben’s explanations brought each site to life. Visiting memorials, lookout points, and local communities made the history and resilience of the area feel very real. It was a heart-wrenching and important experience that I will never forget. Highly recommended.

Moving and informative - This trip is essential to understand the context of current Israeli life, and the tragedy of the day that inevitably became a part of our history. Some things are difficult to process but it's important to hear the stories and learn about our victims and heroes. I took the trip with Eli, who was very knowledgeable and well-spoken, and also had a lovely personality!
