Tour Suspension Notice
Due to the current conflict in Israel, services in the region have been rendered inoperable and the tour has been suspended. If passengers have previously purchased travel insurance, it may be possible to file a claim through your insurance provider. Our team is currently making every effort to navigate the processes related to the retrieval of funds and subsequent recovery of your investment to the best of our ability. It could take 6-8 weeks (and possibly longer) from the date of this notice (10/31/23) before funds become available from our vendors and we are able to further update all passengers. We appreciate your patience during these unfortunate circumstances and ask for your continued prayers for Israel.
