TRAVELING KOSHER IN THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN
Think Tokyo’s Too Tough for a Kosher T-Bone? Is Keeping Kosher Keeping You from Kyoto?
Kosher Tours to Japan is my Business!
Forget everything you’ve heard about Japan being off-limits to kosher travelers. Being unable to communicate; fear of unknown ingredients; uncertainty about what may or may not be permissible. All these discouraged many travelers who really wanted for a long time to visit the exceedingly beautiful ‘Land of the Rising Sun.’ That’s not the case any more!
Here’s why...
Now, there’s someone who specializes in one thing only: Kosher Tours to Japan. I’ll design your trip, whether it’s for a group or synagogue tour, or whether you want something a little more intimate. Do you prefer a full schedule or a leisurely pace? The big picture or the little details - or both?
Always go to an expert
Comprehend the culture and learn a little of the language. See the sights and appreciate the art. Catch some Kabuki and greet a geisha. I’m here to make your trip to Japan memorable, and I’ll be with you all the way to make sure it’s so!
But that’s just part of the story.
Many people know that thousands of European Jews were rescued during the Holocaust by Chiune (Sempo) Sugihara, the Japanese Consul to Lithuania. It’s a well-known story that is worth repeating, and the locations relating to this heroic and courageous rescue are deserving of a required visit. But did you know that Japan has a varied Jewish past that some take back to the 15th century?
Academic sources have also found common ties between Japan’s Shinto faith and ancient Israelite practices, and make a connection to the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Wouldn’t it be fascinating to visit sites that relate to that?
You’ve waited long enough. Take this important first step and read through this web site. It outlines all the details about how I can plan your trip.
Please feel free to email or call me at +972-50-348-5443 (any time Israel time).
I look forward to welcoming you to Japan.
Yokoso! Welcome to Japan!
Sincerely,
מנחם
