Habonim Dror is proud to announce that the price of Israel tour
has remained the same for the third consecutive year. With the
help of the UJIA Israel experience we have worked hard to limit
costs without reducing the quality of the programme.
Habonim Dror
Israel tour provides our participants with a four week trip to
Israel where they will discover the history and diversity of
Israel and all the amazing sites that it has to offer!
During Israel tour, all participants will travel the length and
breadth of Israel in what can only be described as a jam packed
few weeks! Whilst visiting all the cultural places of interest
such as the Kotel, Masada and Tzfat..... to name a few, there is
also loads of fun to be had on the way. Kayaking down the jordon
river, swimming in the Kinneret, camal riding and Beduin
hospitality are just a taster of what is to come.
All our tours are very well orgainsed and led by experienced
madrichim who have held senior positions on our machanot (camps)
providing them with the neccessary experience needed. The two
English madrichim are accompanied by two Israeli madrichim, one
of whom is a professional tour guide and the other a qualified
medic.
Israel tour is the start of an exciting journey with Habo Dror.
As your amazing experience on tour draws to a close, many more
habo doors open as your hadracha training begins, your chance to
be a madrich/a starts here.
Habonim Dror is
offering you the experience of a lifetime. Habonim Dror is a
socialist, Zionist, culturally Jewish Youth Movement and our
tours reflect this in the way they are run. As a socialist
movement, we focus on communal living and group dynamics. The
tour runs a shared 'kupah' (kitty) system for money which the
group controls for themselves. A huge emphasis is also put on
group building, shared decisions and mutual respect which
provide an unforgettable and unbeatable month with a group who
will become friends for life.
Habonim Dror is
an international youth movement which exists in 23 countries all
over the world. This programme offers a unique opportunity for
members of HD from around the world to meet and learn from each
other and share experiences together.
Habonim Dror has
many connections with communal Kibbutzim and during our month,
we visit many Habonim Dror Kibbutzim all around Israel. We also
work closely with Hanoar Ha'Oved Ve'lomed, our sister movement
in Israel, and spend time on 'Irbutz' (urban kibbutz). Here we
spend time learning about what it is really like to be Israeli
and spend time helping to improve some parts of society. This
'encounter' is invaluable to experiencing Israel and builds ties
with Israelis which will continue into the future.
Throughout
Machaneh Yisrael, we offer a comprehensive leadership training
programme in Israel. Participants return from Israel qualified
to be leaders on our huge range of activities - ranging from
weekly Kenim to our summer and winter machanot (camps) all over
Europe
We offer so many
different educational and fun opportunities that we want to
share with you. If you want a month of unadulterated, undiluted
fun then Habonim Dror is the place for you.
"Being in Israel
and having toured for a whole month with friends has been the
most amazing experience of my life and I thank Habonim Dror so
much for making the trip possible."
