"I wasn’t stunned by how quickly the systems responded - I was proud. Proud to see how fast the Birthright Israel and Israel Outdoors teams moved into action. And I felt inspired to be working as part of the machine that was supporting our participants in the field with strength, flexibility, and care." - Adam Graham, an tour educator.

A 10-day FREE trip to Israel – No strings attached

Travel in an inclusive and relaxed environment

More trip dates = more flexibility to fit your schedule

Experience the highlights and go off the beaten path

Trip options for diverse backgrounds and interests

Our active itinerary means more time off the bus and on the go

Our itineraries are active and adventurous, and our experiences are open-minded and apolitical. We encourage our travelers to consider these journeys to be a personal, independent exploration of new ideas and perspectives. Through it all, you’ll make friends and memories that will last a lifetime and discover your own authentic Israel!

Choice

We know you want a trip that feels right for you, so we offer many ways to experience your Gift.

Israel Quest is our flagship itinerary, which provides an exceptionally balanced experience. For the more outdoorsy inclined, we have Israel by Foot and Israel by Bike. We also offer specialty theme trips, community-specific trips and campus-specific trips - check out all of them HERE! We have a huge selection of departure dates and departure city options — which means MORE OPTIONS and flexibility for you! And finally, we offer more age category options. In addition to the typical 18-22 and 22-26 groupings, we also form groups exclusively for ages 24-26 and 27-32.

Adventure

Life is an adventure, and travel is the best shortcut in your journey to new and authentic experiences!

Traveling with Israel Outdoors is a unique opportunity to discover more about yourself, your past and maybe even your future. You’ll experience the phenomenal beauty of Israel: vast Negev desert canyons, lush Galilee hills, Jerusalem’s ancient majesty, Tel Aviv’s cosmopolitan pulse, the picturesque Mediterranean coast and the unsinkable Dead Sea. Best of all, with Israel Outdoors, you’ll be spending less time on the bus and more time on the go!

Perspectives

Bond with a diverse group of new friends, including Israeli peers who share in the experience along the way.

You’ll be challenged by new ideas, discover old truths, and return home with a renewed understanding of the world. And because Israel Outdoors is unaffiliated and 100% pluralistic, you’ll be encouraged to form your own thoughts and take home what you want from the experience.

Reliability

Our hands-on approach is led by top Israeli guides and North American staff dedicated to getting you the most from your Gift!

And just as important, you can take comfort in the knowledge that you’ll be supported in Israel by dedicated professionals with experience going back to the very start of Birthright Israel who know how to craft a well-organized trip and who care about your well-being like family.
