Requests for Assistance from All Over the World
Requests are flooding into the Tourist Desk at the Department of Public Relations. For the first time, people in wheelchairs can fulfill their dream of visiting Israel, knowing that a full service tourist department can supply their every need – transportation from the airport in specially equipped vans, outfitting of hotel rooms with needed equipment, and much more.

When Fun in Jerusalem owner and creator Joanna Shebson was looking for a venue to host her family event, she chose Yad Sarah and became a fan

Joanna, who made Aliyah from Los Angeles with her husband and three children in 2007, may have started her site as a "mommy blog," but she has turned it into an immensely successful tourism website. Savvy parents and grandparents – locals and tourists – turn to it first when looking for fun activities for their kids. Joanna personally checks out all of the events, attractions and services she recommends so she can guarantee you and your children will enjoy whichever activity you choose. In the process of checking out Yad Sarah, she learned that we offer a special Bar/Bat Mitzvah tour, which includes a tour of The Yad Sarah Experience visitor's center and an overview of some of the special services Yad Sarah has to offer. The kids can assemble a walker or other equipment as part of the tour, and there are several options for the party itself. Joanna decided that this was just the right venue to commemorate the first time her 13-year-old son put on his brand new tefillin in advance of his Bar Mitzvah. The whole event went off without a hitch, the kids had a great time, and Yad Sarah now has a featured page on Fun in Jerusalem's very professional and eye-catching website.
