Launch of 2026 Israel tour programs

JNF Australia has announced its 2026 Israel tours program, offering a range of experiences from immersive multi-day adventures to curated single-day visits. Travellers will explore Israel from north to south, meeting the communities whose lives are touched by JNF-funded projects, from flourishing kibbutzim and pioneering water initiatives to educational and cultural programs.

“Visiting Israel with JNF changes you,” said CEO of JNF Australia Doron Lazarus.

“You see firsthand the impact of your support, and you feel the deep connection between our community and the people of Israel. We give Israel strength by visiting, and the people gives us strength in return.”

The tours are designed to meet a variety of interests. Group tours are ideal for those seeking to explore Israel’s highlights while engaging with transformative JNF projects. Flexible On-Demand Tours allow families and friends to travel together at their own pace where itineraries are built based on the travellers’ interests.

Single-day tours provide a window into JNF’s work, perfect for those short on time but eager to witness the difference their contributions make.

For those who want to give back more directly, a Volunteers Tour offers a hands-on experience from planting trees, supporting agriculture, to running community programs.

JNF is planning to add JNFuture and Young Professionals Tour, combining volunteering, adventure, and inspiration alongside like-minded peers.

Past participants have described returning home with renewed pride and a sense of connection to Israel, to the people they meet, and to their own role in supporting the Jewish homeland.
