Israel Launches Guided Military-Secured Tours in the Golan Heights

Israel has introduced new tourist routes in the Golan Heights under the protection of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). This unique initiative blends security, history, and patriotism, offering visitors an exceptional experience in one of the country’s most strategically significant regions.
The tours, already gaining attention among both local and international travelers, are guided by soldiers and focus on key locations in the Golan Heights recently secured by the IDF. Participants are taken on walking tours where they learn about the history of regional conflicts, the unique geography of the area, and the current defense operations.
Military personnel ensure visitors’ safety while also providing firsthand insights into Israel’s security challenges. This special format has been described as a form of “military-historical tourism” designed to promote public awareness and patriotic education.
Officials emphasize that all activities comply with strict safety regulations and avoid any proximity to active combat zones.
