You’re invited to join us on a 12 day, all-inclusive Israel Study Tour.
You will be immersed in the land and lessons of the Bible as you’re led on a journey through Scripture while your local guide and driver will bring the past and present culture of Israel alive to all your senses.
Unlike other Holy Land tours, this tour is solely focused on bringing Scripture to life through first-hand experiences in the places the stories actually happened. An all-inclusive trip you’ll be free to focus on each moment without worrying about lodging, tips, transportation, entrance fees, food or water.
What is a GTI Study Tour?
We’ve built into our study tours everything you need for an enjoyable and educational trip. We want you to be fully focused on the lessons and experiences you’ll encounter, and not be distracted by local tipping practices, transportation arrangements, or meal planning.
We believe that as a Study Tour participant you’re not a mere tourist—you’re an investment! This is evident from the moment you book your trip, through to the time you return home to share what you’ve learned with your friends and family.
Our seasoned guides and ministry partners do so much more than handle the details and keep things on schedule. Our local guides have personal experience and intimate knowledge of the places and events you’ll examine, and our ministry partner’s teachers have a shepherd’s heart and a passion for God’s word.
The guides have been so personable and so knowledgeable and so friendly. There's just never a bad day for these guys. They make you very comfortable throughout the trip.

Andrew West
Pastor of Worship Arts and Ministry Leadership, Calvary Church Los Gatos
My name is Andrew West, and I am a Pastor at Calvary Church Los Gatos where I have been serving since 2004. I first traveled to Israel when I was 17. The experience changed me and I knew I wanted to return one day. 5 years ago I had the privilege of returning to Israel with GTI. It was on that trip that my friend Steve ( the co-leader of this trip) first imagined bringing others to Israel to experience what we had seen. I still remember the first time I saw the Sea of Galilee and suddenly so many of the stories I read of Jesus life and ministry came alive. The places we saw alongside the teaching we received have provided an experience I still draw from daily whenever I read scripture. I cannot wait to share this experience with others and I look forward to walking with others as we experience the history, depth and richness of Israel.
