    “Tour was the most amazing experience. My highlight of Tour was when all the Tours met up for Maccabiah, where we were able tot reunite with old-friends and make new ones from all over. The feeling of everyone coming together to participate and supporting your friends competing in the games was incredible.”

    “A million thank yous from us and Talia for a trip of a lifetime. She’s home and is missing her group, leaders and experience already. They couldn’t have been better leaders.
