Pilgrimage

 
tours-header-no-icon-min.jpg
 

Travel through the life of Jesus, the pages of the Bible, the complicated history and living culture of this amazing place.

Wander in the hidden places of Israel and Palestine.

This is far more than a tour.

 
 

I’ve been leading experiences like this for twenty years, and I learn something new with every group.

 
 

“This trip will change your life.”


People have been taking Pilgrimage Tours to Israel for hundreds of years. The physical journey mirrors the spiritual adventure of setting out into the unknown. My tours are uniquely rooted in this tradition. They’re also modern explorations into history, religion, faith, Bible, geography, nature, politics and the wild and unfolding conversation that happens across these disciplines. 

I lead all kinds of groups, with all kinds of people, religious and non-religious, Jewish and Christian, schools and churches, families and organizations, all are welcome, all have something to learn from the land and culture that have shaped our understanding of God, the Bible and being human. 

Typically, my tours are intensive experiences, with full days and plenty of hiking. There’s also good conversation as we learn from one another, from the land, from history and the Bible. Israel is one of the busiest tourist countries in the world and I make every effort to provide a safe, life-giving, and rewarding experience.

If you are part of a church, school or organization and are interested in a group experience, I can arrange dates that work with your needs. Some of my favorite trips are with pastors who can bring their own people. This creates a more lively and lasting experience. If you’re a pastor, send me an email. Small private tours can also be arranged.
