Highlights

A country no bigger than the state of New Jersey, Israel offers cultural attractions comparable to Europe, the U.S. and Canada. Luxury hotels, glamorous spas and a lively restaurant scene add to a sophisticated atmosphere that combines ancient and exotic with contemporary and high-tech. Israel boasts an international Opera Company (The New Israeli Opera), four full-time symphony orchestras (including the Israel Philharmonic), as well as dozens of theater, dance, and contemporary music companies. History abounds in Israel and at times you'll find yourself walking in the exact places where the events of the Bible unfolded. Standing at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa, Israel covers a relatively small area measuring just 290 miles in length and 85 miles across at its widest point. Everywhere you turn, you'll see reminders of the world's three major religions - Islam, Judaism and Christianity.

Forming a connecting link between the northern and central parts of the country, Netanya is the largest city on the road between Tel-Aviv and Haifa. Located on the Mediterranean shore, its mild climate makes this city an attractive beach resort town (with approximately 10 miles of beaches), beautiful gardens, promenade malls and an all-around appeal for visitors. The city offers many activities free of charge year round, endless sports facilities, beautiful beaches, water sports, paragliding, horseback riding and an exciting nightlife. Agricultural villages, orchards and orange groves, open fields and authentic Israeli countryside surround Netanya and are only a short drive away.

AmeriSpan Study Abroad's Mission Statement

Our mantra is "Every Language, Every Culture, Everywhere." AmeriSpan Study Abroad has over 15 years experience and over 30,000 past participants. Our staff has three passions: language, culture, and travel. Individually and as a group, we have accumulated experiences and knowledge related to these passions. AmeriSpan's staff has traveled to more than 65 countries, every continent except Antarctica, speak 10 languages, and we are happy to share this enormous amount of relevant knowledge with you. Every staff member has studied and/or lived abroad for extended periods of time. We are neither a language school nor a travel agent, we're a hybrid of the two: a language travel organization. AmeriSpan has evaluated hundreds of schools, host families and destinations to determine which programs to offer, and our independence allows us to give you unbiased evaluations of these programs. Our pledge to our participants is to make going abroad 'worry-free'. There is no risk in choosing an AmeriSpan program because you'll get the best program, best price and can cancel for any reason and get a full refund on every dollar we have received for your program.
