A few days after the war began, individuals and groups found ways to get to Israel to pray, to serve, and to tour. Our team on the ground in Israel works hard to keep every group in the land safe and away from the conflict at hand.

It’s rare that Israel is ever without conflict, but in this season where things are heightened, we’ve been blessed to hear of dozens of groups that have gone and were wonderfully blessed by their time there.

We are blessed with experienced guides, drivers, and tour leaders that have had decades of experience guiding groups, both in times of relative peace as well as in times of conflict.

Although we can never guarantee safety (nor could we guarantee it if you were traveling to any major city in the U.S.), we can guarantee that our traveler’s safety is the number one priority for all of us at TFI Tours.

Barring any unforeseen changes, we plan to see all the key sites EXCEPT those that are currently close to the Lebanese border (which would include areas like Tel Dan, Banias, and some areas in the Golan Heights). And, obviously, we will stay away from any area that is even remotely close to areas that experience conflict in seasons like this.

These are important days in Israel and I personally feel it is a privilege to travel there, especially at a time where people are choosing to stay away. Our being there will be a testimony of our love for Israel and the people of the land.

I’ve had friends who were recently there had a local Israeli come up to them and say, “Why in the world (they used a slightly different phrase using profanity) would you choose to be here at a time like this?”  The traveler responded that it was because of their love for Israel and the God of Israel that they were there now!

The Israeli that asked the question could hardly speak as it is so meaningful and moving to them to see people of the nations coming to Israel, especially during Israel’s time of need.

We highly suggest getting traveler’s insurance to cover any possible illness that you may experience while in Israel (as well as coverage for you in case you need to cancel the trip for any reason).
