Custom Group Experiences
Authentic Israel was founded nearly 30 years ago as a provider of educational touring 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 summer months, Authentic Israel shares the magic of Israel with thousands teens each year through our work with Jewish youth organizations such as BBYO, Sinai Youth, NCSY, Bnei Akiva, B'nai B'rith Camps. Additionally we work on the local level to provide custom Israel experiences for JCC camps as well as local Federations, CAJE, and other community organizations.
A successful school or youth group trip is always based on a well thought out itinerary and an organized trip planning process. We can help! Our staff works hand-in-hand with youth organizations to design a custom educational curriculum, select the right Israeli staff team, and implement the highest security and logistical standards.
