Alternative Travel Department

The main project of the Travel Department is the Siraj Center for Holy Land Studies. www.sirajcenter.org

Siraj Center is a way to bring Palestinians and Internationals together to learn more about each other, which serves one of the main goals of Rapprochement. In addition, Siraj provides alternative tours for tourists that make them more aware of the situation in Palestine.

Siraj organizes an annual summer program, known as Palestine Summer Celebration through which participants have an opportunity to live with Palestinian Families, learn Arabic, volunteer at Palestinian NGOs, and learn Palestinian folklore dancing and Arabic food in addition to visiting Palestine and many other things.

Siraj Center is officially licensed by the Palestinian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities as a tourist agency owned by the Palestinian Center for Rapprochement between People.
