Wed 14 Feb to Mon 26 Feb. India’s history of Jewish settlement dates back to the 1st century with the arrival of those fleeing persecution after the destruction of the Second Temple. Today’s 5,000 Jews are as diverse and polyglot a population as that of India itself. A visit to India is a revealing and intriguing immersion into the more exotic aspects of Jewish life and culture and the more mysterious recesses of the human soul. It is a truly illuminating journey- and we add Nepal, as an option, to complete the adventure. Mike Enav, Tour Director, 212-879-4588, info@ajcongresstravel.com. 4895.

Mon 19 Feb to Sun 4 Mar. Just to our south, a whole continent awaits discovery. It’s full of grand cities, extraordinary scenery and a pulse of life that will have your toes tapping and hips gyrating from the moment you arrive. It’s also home to hundreds of thousands of Jews, most of whose ancestors arrived from Eastern Europe at the same time yours reached America. We begin in Argentina and its gorgeous capital Buenos Aires, often called “Paris of South America”…You’ll meet Jewish Argentineans and you’ll journey out into the Pampas where Jewish pioneers created a “Promised Land” in the late 19th century. Next – amazing Iguassu Falls – then journey to northern Brazil, where Jews have lived for almost as long as Europeans have lived in the Western Hemisphere. Buenos Aires.
