Travel to Palestine/Israel

There is a growing awareness that common assumptions about the Palestinian and Israeli people, the history of the conflict, and the “peace process” are distorted or false due to skewed coverage of the region in the mainstream media. In response to the demand for better information and direct exposure to the people and the “facts on the ground,” excellent alternative travel opportunities have emerged in profusion. This list represents only a few of the many excellent programs that exist for travel in Israel/Palestine. We encourage you to research these and other options for travel and to participate in a program that fits with your personal goals, schedule, and travel preferences.
