Step into a journey that sheds light on Israel’s enduring strength in the face of unimaginable loss. This moving visit offers an opportunity to honor, remember, and stand alongside the communities whose courage continues to shape the nation’s heart.

History lives not only in memory, but in the landscapes and people who carry it forward. This day trip invites you to witness resilience up close — to see how grief has transformed into unity, rebuilding, and hope.

We’ll begin at Tkuma, where the burnt cars from October 7 were gathered — a powerful reminder of loss and survival. From there, we’ll visit the Nova Music Festival site, where lives, love, and music were forever intertwined. The journey continues to Sderot, where perseverance meets renewal, and there will be an opportunity to support local businesses while there. We’ll also meet soldiers and learn about the Shuva Food and Supplies program, founded by the Trabelsi brothers, which provides essential support to soldiers traveling to and from Gaza.

Guided by Onnie, a licensed Israeli tour guide with advanced degrees in Education and Psychology from Columbia University, this experience blends knowledge with empathy, inclusivity, and heart.

Join us for a day of remembrance and renewal — a chance to see Israel’s spirit shining through its people, places, and stories.
