we build a tour like no other
how do we build our tour?
FUN
First and foremost, Israel Tour is about providing a three weeks of unforgettable memories that are full of fun and laughter. We design our programming to deliver just that. Fun.
EDUCATION
Alongside fun, we build a programme that centres on education. Our aim is to provide our participants with history and to learn and be exposed to new topics and things they had never even considered. This is a programme about education.

how we stay in touch
At FZY, we know that your child might be a little too busy having fun to update you during Tour. That is why we keep you informed every step of the way through our new app, where you can follow the group’s journey each day. We will also send daily email updates, apart from Shabbat, which will be included in Sunday’s message.
We will also have a Dropbox SharePoint which will be updated with plenty of pictures from your child’s day every day!
Alongside the daily updates, our UK staff team will be available around the clock to support you. If you have any questions or messages for your child’s madrichim, we are here to help, and an emergency phone will be in place so you can reach us at any time.
