Israel is one of the most-visited tourist destinations in the world, in which its widespread heritage and rich historical importance play a big part. More than half of the tourists visit Israel to bask in the rich culture that the county has on offer, along with the opportunity to explore prime historic cities such as Jerusalem.

When it comes to Jews, Israel is arguably the most important and the most significant place to visit in order to rediscover and connect with their Jewish heritage. As one of the few fully Jewish county, Israel is the top choice for Jews spread out all around the world to come and visit and explore the rich heritage that Israel has on offer.

There are many compelling sites in Israel that tell the story of Israel’s historical association with Jews, such as the historical city of Jerusalem, where the first ever Jew temple was built, over thousands of years ago. Judaism is the state religion of Israel, for Jews, have been living in the country since the dawn of time, and even when faced with disruptions such as the Babylonian conquest, Roman rule, Ottoman rule, and British rule, Israel was always the true home of Jews in and out. Israel still accepts, and will always accept any Jews as their own citizen, and it is the one true place where all Jews can call the country their home.

That is why Israel forms an important and crucial part of any Jew tourist, for this is the country that has the religion deeply embedded in itself, along with all the popular historical and archaeological sites on offer, such as Mount Carmel, Dead Sea and many of the rich museums available for tours in the country.

There are many kinds of tour packages available, both for regular tourists and for those who want to experience the Jewish roots of Israel. While the sites of visit remain almost the same, the nature of the tour varies greatly, depending on if you want to explore the Jewish sites or if you want to explore all kinds of places the country has on offer.
