Programa clásico de 10 días

Our ten -day trips give Jewish young adults between the ages of 18 and 26 the opportunity to fall in love with Israel, and in the process, strengthen the bond between themselves and their Jewish homeland, their fellow Jews from all over the world, and their own identity. These trips are educational, enriching, powerfully emotional — and fun! Participants discover the Israel of antiquity, with visits to ancient landmarks of Jewish presence and activity, through to the high-tech and cosmopolitan democracy that Israel is today. Our educational platform bridges yesterday and today.

One of the most meaningful aspects of this educational journey is the Mifgash, (Hebrew for encounter) between trip participants and their Israeli peers (usually from the Israeli Defense Force) who join each group. The impact of these encounters goes both ways: travelers learn about ancestral, as well as, daily life in Israel and the commitment it requires to sustain it. The Israeli participants take away a renewed sense of pride and motivation, in addition to an understanding of the Jewish community outside of Israel. There is no better way to connect with one’s heritage. While other trips require you to leave home, a Taglit-Birthright Israel trip is a return home.
