Adventures through the Golan
LET travel will always exceed your expectations when they take you on an adventure. My trip through the Golan was northing short of amazing. Beni's connections to various people in Israel gives you some of the greatest experiences you can ask for. From ATV riding through the mountains of the Golan, to being brought to the old Syrian military headquarters; a beautiful abandoned building filled with graffiti and with some of the greatest views of the Golan. Finishing the trip in the hot springs which will make you not want to ever leave the area. LET always has a way to make you never forget the adventure you have been on. A true one of a kind experience that you couldn't get with anyone else. Thank you LET for always exceeding my expectations and making every adventure I go on with you one that I will never forget.

The best experience!
Our temple recently returned from a short Mission to Israel to bear witness and support our people during difficult times. Our trip was brief but filled with various experiences designed to give us as complete a picture as possible over three days. Beni and his team did a superb job of preparing the itinerary and gave us access to people and places not normally seen on these types of excursions. This included the SHalom Hartman Institute, meeting Arab Israeli journalist Khalid Abu Toarmeh, the Bedouin town of Rahat, and more. We traveled in comfort and ate rearranged delicious meals. Beni personally led us and provided valuable insights into many topics including issues that were quite personal to him. It was an emotional trip, filled with great conversation and memories that will last a lifetime. Todah Rabah!

A wonderful family experience.
We have traveled extensively all over the world, but under the current circumstances has concern about visiting Israel. Friends in Kansas City recommended contacting Beni at LET Travel. He put us in the capable hands of Shelly Kaufman Barda and her associates at that company. We were traveling with our adult son and his wife. The latter was very familiar with Israel having lived there and visited often. So each of us had different desires and expectations. Shelly very patiently revised our itinerary six times offering many options and excellent suggestions. She also promised us the "best" tour guide (Yonatan Harpaz) and definitely delivered on that promise. Many of our sights were well known, but others were new and truly elevated our "working" vacation experience. Our family is extremely grateful to all involved who provided this memorable view of Israel.

Testimonials - Bnei Mitzvah
The Cherbinsky Family
We had high expectations, but this experience exceeded anything we could have imagined a Bar Mitzvah tour to Israel could be. We travel a lot around the world, but the level of planning and execution we experienced was world-class. Above all, what stood out was Erez and his team’s ability to deliver a deeply spiritual and emotional family journey that none of us will ever forget. Incredibly, we contacted Erez on a Sunday, and by Friday, we were on a tour that started with a helicopter picking us up from Rishpon and flying us to a luxury glamping site in the Golan Heights. After a delicious Shabbat dinner, we went on a night safari by jeep. The next day was filled with extreme adventures, including bungee jumping, rappelling, and a canoe safari on the Sea of Galilee. The final day was exceptionally moving, as Erez took us on a spiritual journey through the mystical city of Safed. What we experienced there was pure magic—a connection to Jewish spirituality and family like never before. Thank you, Erez and the Bnei Mitzvah team!
The Magal
Family
Everything I wanted and dreamed of came true on this tour. Our day began with a stop at Tzuba Winery, where everyone got into the festive mood. We continued to Jerusalem for an emotional tour of the Jewish Quarter with Erez. The Bar Mitzvah ceremony was held near the Western Wall, in a private space where we could all be together as a family. To top it off, we enjoyed an amazing dinner at Mona Restaurant, accompanied by a band singing sacred Hebrew songs. Thank you, Erez and the Bnei Mitzvah team, for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
The Gamliel
Family
I met Erez through friends, and right away, I told him he was going to help me fulfill my dream of creating a unique Bar Mitzvah tour for Yonatan. Erez worked with Yonatan to design an experience that honored tradition while letting Yonatan enjoy it in his own way. We started in Jerusalem, where Erez arranged access to exclusive venues. We celebrated late into the night at Kfar HaNokdim, enjoyed a thrilling ride on dune buggies, floated in the Dead Sea, and ended with a private Bar Mitzvah ceremony on the iconic Masada. A huge thank you to Erez and the Bnei Mitzvah team for an incredible journey!
The Meier
Family
We wanted to surprise Eleni with an experience tailored just for her and her friends. Erez suggested Gazebo Beach Club in Herzliya. When Eleni arrived, all her friends were waiting in swimsuits, ready for a surfing workshop. Later, TikTok stars hosted workshops in tie-dye and dance. The evening included a touching slideshow and a special video message from a celebrity, followed by a party that went on late into the night. Thank you, Erez and Bnei Mitzvah team, for an unforgettable event!

Bar Mitzvah Speech in Orthodox StyleWith the permission of my dear parents, my teachers, and with the permission of the esteemed guests, I will thank Hashem greatly with my mouth, and within the congregation I will praise Him. Blessed are You, Hashem, who has kept us alive, sustained us, and brought us to this time, to merit becoming a Bar Mitzvah and performing the commandments. The Creator has given us 613 commandments, among them the precious mitzvah of tefillin. Our sages in Masechet Berakhot, Daf 12, said: “He who wishes to accept the yoke of the kingdom of Heaven in its entirety, should first wash his hands, put on tefillin, recite the Shema, and pray, and this is the complete kingdom of Heaven.” The donning of tefillin is the crown and glory of Israel. Our holy sages took great pride in the fact that they never walked four cubits without tefillin, and it is said that Rabbi’s entire life was without Torah, tefillin, and tzitzit. This mitzvah was their glory and their pride. Inspired by the words of our sages, I am moved and excited to fulfill the mitzvah of tefillin. I pray to our Father in Heaven to illuminate my path and guide me on the right path, the path of my grandfather ______. On this occasion, I want to thank my dear parents, who have worked tirelessly and invested all their strength in me. May Hashem fulfill all your wishes for good and blessing. To my dear sister ______ and my other siblings ______, may Hashem bless you and guide you on the right path. To my dear grandmother ______, may the Almighty protect you and grant you good health and joy from all your descendants. To my dear grandparents ______ and ______, who help us greatly, may Hashem return to you double and may you rejoice in abundant joy. On this occasion, I wish to mention my dear grandfather ______, of blessed memory. May it be His will to intercede on our behalf and bring us joy from us, your children and grandchildren. At this auspicious moment, I offer a prayer before our Father in Heaven: Please, Hashem, have mercy and compassion on Your people Israel and send us the Redeemer speedily. May we merit all salvations and consolations, and may the Redeemer come to Zion. May you merit the mitzvot!"

Bar Mitzvah Speech - an amazing kidThirteen years ago, I came into this world, a cute, talented, and smart child. I quickly grew into a world of charm, and I join the chosen people, the people of the Torah, who have protected us from all harm and danger. I love to learn but hate to put in the effort, and in the end, good grades come. I love to draw and have talent, but for the sake of the computer, I’ve abandoned the pencil. On this festive day, I want to thank those who make it possible for me to live a good life. First and foremost, thank you, Creator of the world, who watches over me day and night. A huge thank you to you, my wonderful mother, whose love is greater than anything and who watches over me. Thank you for your great patience and listening, filling my life with so much love. To you, my mother, for endless pampering, there are no words enough to thank you. On this special day, I wish you an abundance of health and much strength. May I give you all the good in the world, because you deserve it, and for you, it exists. Thank you also to you, dear father, for the ability to make me happy. Thank you for your love, thank you for your smile. Know that I am very attached to you. I wish you happy moments when we share matters of men together. Thank you to my uncles and aunts who came to celebrate with me and share significant moments in my life. Thank you to the honored guests and dear friends. I wish us all many happy moments. Today, I join the adult world, no longer a child but a man among men. During this emotional transition, I ask the Creator of the world: Grant me the ability to help everyone. Allow me to always remain calm and peaceful and bring joy to all who love me. Grant me the ability to give health and love to all those around me. And just one more thing to say to you, my parents, and with this, I will finish my speech. Know that you are simply wonderful parents. I am proud to be your son in every sense of the word. Let me always remain a little child, even as time passes. Thank you very much.

Special and Touching Bar Mitzvah SpeechI stand here today before you all, full of excitement. I thank God for the privilege of a day like this, and blessed be He who has kept us alive, sustained us, and brought us to this time. I have just transitioned from childhood to adulthood, and I now bear responsibility and fulfill commandments. I ask God for wisdom to understand and the discernment to distinguish between good and bad. I pray right here and now that God will always be by my side, that I will be worthy of the life He has given me, and that I will never be ashamed of myself or my actions. Thank you to my dear mother, who always listens, with love, emotion, and much understanding. I love you so much, Mom, you are simply amazing. Dad, you are truly amazing, there’s no one like you, Dad. A father like you is hard to come by, one who helps me through every obstacle. To my grandparents of blessed memory, whom I did not have the chance to meet, but from the stories, I understood there is no one like them in the world. To my grandfather of blessed memory, who is no longer with us, but will always be with us in spirit and will guide us. To my grandmother, may she live a long life, who spoils me with lots of kisses and hugs. I have one request from you, God: watch over her. Thank you also to my siblings, who always disturb my life. Arguments are a routine, but we all know it’s out of love. Thank you very much to everyone, and have a wonderful evening.

Bar Mitzvah Speech – FamilyFirst and foremost, I want to thank you all for coming to celebrate with me today. I thank God for the blessing of reaching this day. I stand at a significant turning point in my life, where I must begin to take responsibility for my actions. Beginnings are always the end of a period, and we will always miss the childhood that has passed. Now it's real, I must take responsibility, and even without a certificate, I can feel maturity. At this esteemed occasion, I want to thank my dear parents, who are the greatest of all and the best in the world. They instilled in me values and taught me independence. They gave me love for humanity and the rules of culture. To my dear siblings, I wish us continued good friendship. To my dear grandfather, may you be blessed with many years of happiness and health. With trembling, I want to honor the memory of my grandmother, of blessed memory, who left us, and the sorrow will always be with us. She loved, cared, and helped, and was a symbol and a sign to me. Sadly, she is not here because her strength has ended. The memory of those I didn’t have the chance to meet will always stay with me. I know that up above in heaven, they watch over us with great care. I know this and feel obliged to always remember and love them. Thank you, dear guests. May you be blessed with happiness and many joys. And to conclude, I have one small request from God: protect my family and all of Israel. Now, it’s time to celebrate and dance, so let’s head to the dance floor!

Humorous Bat Mitzvah SpeechDear guests, friends, uncles, aunts, and parents, good evening and welcome. First, a big thank you to every guest – to those who are still here and to those already running away. Reaching the age of adulthood is fun, but being 12 is not easy at all. Everyone tells me: "You're already grown up. You need to behave differently now," or, "Where are you in such a hurry?" And all we want is for our parents to try being grown-ups too, leave us alone, and go occupy themselves with other things. And now, seriously – Mom, I want to thank you today for bringing me here safely, and for giving me a life that feels like a dream. You don’t withhold anything from me – neither now nor in the past. And also, thank you, Dad. You always show me love. You never forget to spoil me, whether up close or from afar. And I also want to thank my little sister. Even though we argue and even fight, whenever I need help, she helps without hesitation. And how can I not mention here Grandma ______, Grandma ______, and Grandpa ______, who create such a mess for me? They always advise, always worry, hug, kiss, and pamper me. And finally – dear guests. I must not forget to mention one absent guest. Grandpa ______ with the belly and the beard, in the pictures with the family, traveling in the caravan. I’m sure he would have been happy with us. He always embraced us with love. In the book "The Wizard of Oz," the Scarecrow says: "I wish for brains, not a heart, because a foolish person doesn't know what to do with a heart, even if he has one." And the Tin Man replies: "I choose the heart, because brains do not bring happiness, and happiness is the greatest thing in the world." And I, dear guests, wish for both a heart and brains for all of us. Have a pleasant evening, and again, thank you.

Grandma, may her memory be a blessing, how can we remember a grandmother we never met? I carry your name with great pride. You protected your family like a lioness, and we see the fruits of your labor every day. Rest in peace, dear grandma, you are missed. Closing: Thank you, dear guests, family, and friends. I will end with a familiar blessing in our family: "And if You, the Good One, hear and love, bless me tonight." I love you all.
