Family Reunions
Milestones is your way to connect your family heritage with Israel, while enjoying a fun-packed adventure in the holy land. Hold a family reunion in Israel to enhance family relations between second and third generations from all over the world, while deepening the understanding of your family legacy. Milestones works with all members of the extended family to create a unique experience that ensures the story of your ancestors will never be forgotten.
Sharing experiences, planting trees together and learning firsthand the amazing stories and history of your extended family is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. We begin by creating a Facebook page or website to connect the younger generations with all family members. To view sample itineraries of Milestone’s Israel family reunions, click below.
