Finjan - Alternative Travel & Trekking in Israel

Finjan is an Israeli trek, travel and adventure company focusing on alternative travel, personal enc The name behind it all:
So, why the name Finjan?

Trek, travel…taste – it’s time for Finjan to give you Israel Unfiltered. We are just two guys, both Licensed Tour Guides and Outdoor Specialists, who are here to make you experience Israel like an Israeli. From the deep canyons in Israel’s deserts to the country’s snow-capped northern peaks, Finjan will expose you to all sides of Israel while your senses do the rest. Let’s just say, we are here to make your life on social media look like the greatest adventure you or your friends have ever had. Well, we believe that pure travel bliss can only be fully achieved by drinking your fair share of coffee throughout the journey. Wherever we are, the Finjan is always by our side – ready to brew the finest grounds. Ah but wait, we still didn’t say what a Finjan is. The Finjan is the vassal we use to prepare our coffee. All across the Middle East, you will see this variation on a theme. So as we say, without the Finjan, there is no coffee, and without the coffee – there is no trek! There’s an old Bedouin proverb that goes like this: Coffee must be as dark as the night, sweet as a woman, strong like a man…and bitter like marriage. Now its our time to take you to the places your guidebook won’t!

Our first ever off- trail multi day hike!
The Marzaba area of the Negev is a remote piece of desert, without any historical accounts, or marked trails, it is a land of incredible beauty, forgotten springs and pools, and ancient and nameless trails
For more than a decade we were exploring this area, uncovering its many secrets.

We will be accompanied by a Bedouin logistics team, building a camp to return to each evening, allowing us to hike with minimal weight on our backs.
