    Off-the-beaten track

    Home » Explore Israel » Off-the-beaten track

    Lazing by the pool of your hotel may be a relaxing way to spend your holiday, but why not take advantage of the lively activities Israel has to offer!!  Whether you are a first-time visitor or have clocked up the “frequent flyer” miles travelling to Ben Gurion Airport, you are sure to find unique and rewarding ways to engage your heart, mind and soul.

    Join an ISRAEL MAVEN tour and you can enjoy:

    • Helicopter Rides
      Soar over Jerusalem, the Judean Desert or the Golan Heights in a 2-4 seater helicopter as you gain a birds-eye view of Israel’s dimensions & beauty. Former Israeli Airforce pilots will regale you with tales of Israel’s fascinating history and brief you on a wide range of security issues. You can choose to land almost anywhere in the country – from the Dead Sea at 1200 feet below sea level to Mt Hermon towering 6000 feet above sea level.
    • Volunteer Work
      Lend a hand to those in need and engage in acts of kindness. Whether you peel potatoes at a soup-kitchen, lighten the mood at the Children’s Ward of the hospital, pick fruit for distribution or simply donate blood, you are sure to feel a stronger connection with Israel and her people. (Learn more…)
    • Wine Route
      Sample the local fare as you visit world-class, boutique wineries around the country. Toast “LeChaim” to your health & good fortune on the Carmel Mountains, Golan heights, Negev Desert and Coastal Plain. (Learn more…)
    • Moonlit Excursions
      Feel the magic in the air as you watch moonrise over the white desert sands of the Havarim Valley and explore the canyons of the Negev by the glow of the moon. Stroll along the banks of the Jordan River by night or take in the mystique and charm of the Old City bathed in moonlight
    • Special Events
      Experience the intense emotions that bubble to the surface a few select days of the year. Stand in reflective silence when the siren sounds on Holocaust Day and traffic grinds to a halt, dance joyously through the streets of Jerusalem on Independence Day or join the throngs of worshippers who fill the Western Wall Plaza before daybreak on Shavuot. Be sure not to miss Chanuka-lighting in the alleyways of Tzfat or the bustling market for the Four Species just prior to Sukkot.
    • Archeological Digs
      Search for clues of the past buried deep in the sands of time. Participate in a real-life excavation under the guidance of expert archeologists and be a part of uncovering the secrets that have been hidden for centuries.
    • Personal Interaction
      Discover the faces of Israel and meet with leaders from the worlds of politics, business, philanthropy and spirituality. Expand your horizons and interact with personalities from across the spectrum who challenge conventional thinking.
    • Visiting an IDF Base
      Enter restricted military areas for a behind-the-scenes look at the Israeli Defense Force. Tour front-line positions, receive briefings from commanding officers and observe live-fire exercises by combat troops. Enjoy spending time chatting with the regular soldiers and show your appreciation for those who work tirelessly to protect Israel.
