hikes “off the beaten track”, visits to sites such as Jerusalem’s Old City, The Western Wall Tunnels, Yad Vashem, Masada and the Dead Sea, the Golan, the Galilee, and the mystical city of Tzfat.

Taglit-Birthright Israel-Livnot participants will have the opportunity to meet Israel’s most important resource, her people. There is no better way to learn about “Israel Today”. All Taglit-Birthright Israel-Livnot groups are joined by young Israelis who hike, work, study and live with them, giving the participants a chance to meet their peers.

Together, the group will hear what Judaism has to say about love, sex, relationships, history and nature, ask questions, and spend traditional Shabbats in Jerusalem and Tzfat.

Warning! This program is not for those who are looking for a party atmosphere.
