For Jewish travelers, a Heritage tour to Poland may be a difficult yet essential journey. The statistics themselves are harrowing: During the Holocaust, 90% of Poland ’s three million Jews were annihilated. Still, Jewish roots go centuries-deep in this country, and we have made great contributions to it. In the past, Jewish travel to Poland was limited to Krakow and Warsaw.
Today, however, one can see other important historical sights, as well as the vivid present-day return of a Jewish Poland. To create a more in-depth experience for the sophisticated Jewish traveler, we now also include Tykocin, Kazimiers Dolny, Lublin, Lezajsk, Lancut, Wroclaw, Lodz and more – all featuring new sights and new insights into our complex and continuing life in this part of the world.
