What will a Holyland trip do for your community and you?

Visiting the Holyland is a life changing experience for each participant in your group. Walking in the footsteps of Jesus makes the Bible come alive in a completely new way.

  • Community building
    As your church members go through this life changing trip, they are creating bonds with you and the other members in the group that will not be broken when you return home; they will have a profound and long-lasting effect on your community.
  • Fund raising opportunity
    Churches need funding for the many social projects they carry out in their community. Your Holyland trip is a great way to raise funds for these services, by adding a small fee to the per person price of the trip. Please ask your Israel Pilgrim Tours representative for more information.
  • Special offer for group leader!
    We realize that leading a community trip is hard work, and definitely not a vacation for the spiritual leader! Therefore, a tour leader who brings at least 15 full paying participants will travel free; additional free passengers are negotiable.
