Sunday
4th: Coming to an End
Next up seemed to be the moment we’d all been
waiting for; you could feel the excitement in the air as the group came to
realize that next up was… the helicopter ride! In small groups we got ready to
board the helicopter and were taken up in the air for a breathtaking, bird’s
eye view of Jerusalem. The view was spectacular and the experience incredible!
After travelling the length and breadth of Israel on foot, in water and by
coach, this was a unique and unforgettable opportunity that added another
dimension to Israel.
After coming back down to earth we continued our love of volunteering by giving back
to Israel one last time on our trip at Yad Sarah. Yad Sarah is the largest
voluntary organization in Israel, and provides a spectrum of free or nominal
cost services designed to make life easier for sick, disabled and elderly
people and their families. The whole group, as usual, got into the volunteering
spirit and seemed to get a lot out of it.
We went off to the Kotel for a final time and a
closing ceremony which was a very
powerful way to end Tribe Israel Tour, at the centre of Israel and the Jewish
people worldwide. We came at the start of the trip with hardly any knowledge of
Israel and Jewish History and are leaving with a wealth of knowledge and inspired
by our homeland.
We had a gala dinner back at the hotel which
was a wonderful way to end, as well as having a farewell party. Each one of us
spoke briefly about what we had got out of tour, what we will take forward and
such lovely things were said by all. The night wasn't over yet though! The
party continued before we prayed an early Shacharit and ended with a powerful
group rendition of the Israeli national anthem - the Hatikvah - before we
boarded the coach to the airport!
Sadly, our time has come to an end. We have all had
a fabulous time with wonderful experiences which we will always remember. We
can’t wait to get back and tell our family and friends all about our time on
Tribe Israel Tour.
Shalom and lehitraot,
The Tribe Team

Petra tours
Until recently considered taboo amongst polite society, it is impossible to overestimate its impact on modern thought. Inevitably guided israel tours is often misunderstood by global commercial enterprises, obviously. Keeping all of this in mind, in this essay I will examine the major issues.
ReplyDeleteNice to hear about your team effort. I also had an israel and petra tour around a year back. That was a 10 days tour and I visited many places but still I thought I might missed out some good ones.
