Every year we make our pilgrimage to Jewish Greece. Ioannina is always included in the tour. Our visit is not just a hedonistic desire to visit the most beautiful country in the world, but also, a very important attempt on our part to re-enforce the small Jewish communities of Greece.

 

In 2008 our tour will include Salonika, Ioannina, Meteora and Volos. We depart on August 11th.

If you can’t make it this year, be sure to get on our mailing list for information on future tours. We will even organize a special tour just for you and your family. What better way to pass on our special culture, history and traditions than to take your children and grandchildren to Greece, to see where it all began.
