Experience Poland with Israel Experience open group for English speakers 03 –

For the past 15 years, Israel Experience has guided hundreds of delegations to Poland from all over the world. This summer, we would like to offer you this once in a lifetime opportunity to learn about your Jewish roots in a new way. During the month of August we are organizing an English speaking group for a week long program in Poland. It is being organized as an open group, geared towards English speakers from around the world and it accommodates all levels of 'Shmirat Shabbat' and 'Kashrut‘. This 'second chance' trip is an opportunity for those that never had the chance, to experience a meaningful and thought provoking journey through Jewish life in Poland before during and after World War II. If you feel that this is something that you just never got around to doing – this trip is for you.
