Our Israel Pastors FAM (Familiarization) Tour is an opportunity for pastors and tour leaders to enjoy a 10-day Deluxe Holy Land tour at a significantly reduced rate. The accompanying spouse or staff member rate is $2749. For our January 2024 tour, we’ve planned an inspiring tour which will acquaint participants with Israel, the land of the Bible. Pastors/leaders will also learn various options for hosting their own tour, and get to know EHT owners Richard Page and Meredith Hill Page, who will accompany the tour.
What Is A Pastors “FAM” Tour? If you have never been to Israel, or haven’t gone recently, we invite you to experience the amazing Land of the Bible for yourself. Stand atop Mount Carmel, visit the Mount of Beatitudes, sail on the Sea of Galilee, and tour Masada via cable car. Enter the empty Garden Tomb, walk the streets of Old Jerusalem, visit the Western Wall, pray in the Garden of Gethsemane, view the Shepherd’s Fields, and much more. FAM Tour Itinerary 2024
