What makes Kosher World Adventures so different than any other Kosher Vacation?
Connecting - We always have a bonfire, No matter where we are in the world, Thursday night we bake Challahs together and at the meals we invite people to share a story about a friend or role model.
Why?
Because these types of activities open the door to connecting.
And beyond the tour guide and logistical staff we also send a Program director to take care of all personal needs, to make sure everyone knows each others name, to run quizzes on long bus rides and social activities in the evenings.
