Adventure Israel
INDEFINITELY POSTPONED DUE TO THE WAR
Please indicate interest to Greg Weisman at GregW@g1at.life
As we all know, the war between Israel and Hamas has affected the whole region. We will reschedule this trip when we feel it is safe to visit Israel and Jordan. In the meantime, will you join us in prayer for the whole region? Thank you. ~ Greg Weisman, G1 Adventure Tours.
I am leaving the information below online to let you know what our plans are for our trip, when we get the opportunity to host it. If you have questions about it, please email me at GregW!@g1at.life. Thank you. Finally, an Israel & Jordan trip designed for the adventurous Christian! For our first Adventure Israel tour, we would like travelers willing to help us create the ideal experience for the future. We need people who are flexible and willing to try EVERYTHING as we work through which activities will work best for our tours. You'll still enjoy all of the important sites as you'd expect. We will just ask for smiles, feedback and patience. Live the History, Hear from God, Experience His Creation, and Connect with a small group of great people. Hike, Dive, Pedal, Paddle, Swim, and Rappel your way through Israel & Jordan’s ancient lands! Most people will only go to the Holy Lands once, so don't go with 200 people on a giant bus for 10 days and miss so much of the important land and sites. Do it right with a small group and 18 days to absorb it all! You will experience the most important sacred and historical sites of both Israel and Jordan with a group of 22 accompanied by two professional guides as well as Adventure Sports Pastor and founder of G1 Adventure Tours, Greg Weisman. MEET YOUR GUIDES: Jamison Creel taught and lived in Israel for 24 years. With an undergraduate degree in History and a Masters in Middle Eastern Cultures and Religions he brings a unique perspective and understanding to the biblical text. Jamison has a unique video series called The Land & The Bible, available here: https://www.thelandandthebible.com/. Jamison and his wife have five kids, are super social, love The Lord, and recently relocated to Athens, Greece where they have launched The Mars Hill Initiative", a ministry sharing Christ with the refugees. Check it out here: https://www.marshillinitiative.com/. Jamison will be one of two guides leading us through the sites and adventures in Israel and Jordan. Jonathan Sofer is our second guide. He is a licensed Israeli Guide and and will serve as our "Adventure Advisor" as well as tour guide. Jonathan is 26, a new father (first child born in March, 2023), and loves the athletic pursuits we will be enjoying! He also guides for the Backroads, one of the top active tour companies in the world. Jonathan speaks Hebrew, French, and English and is thrilled to be leading the first ever "Adventure Israel" tour!
