School Groups

Authentic Israel was founded nearly 30 years ago as a provider of educational touring programs for Israeli schools. Today we continue to be known for our work with school groups and youth organizations from all backgrounds and from around the world.

During the school year, Authentic Israel operates tours for Jewish day schools and other educational organizations. We work with Jewish schools across the denominational spectrum as well as with pluralistic organizations. Learn More: Schools Brochure

Custom Educational Experiences

Each program is unique, and our staff takes pride in working hand-in-hand with school leaders to develop truly innovative educational experiences in Israel which compliment the curriculum at home. Sample Itineraries can be found below, and references are available upon request.

A successful school group trip is always based on a well thought out itinerary and an organized trip planning process. We can help! Our staff will work with you to design a custom educational curriculum, select the right Israeli staff team, and implement the highest security and logistical standards. If you are planning an upcoming Israel trip for your school, we encourage you to learn more about the Authentic Israel Trip Planning Process and to Contact Us today to start the journey.
