Zera Shimshon - Women's Italy Experience
About This Trip
Venice · Padua · Ferrara · Reggio Emilia · Florence
Some journeys are about seeing a place. This one is about meeting it.
The arrival is Venice itself: water taxi through the canals, the grandeur of the Doge's Palace, and a walk through the Jewish ghetto with a guide chosen for depth, not convenience. Murano and Burano follow, where centuries of glassmaking tradition reveal themselves up close.
From there, the journey turns inward. Padua's ghetto and the home of the Ramchal. The kevarim of the Mahram of Padua, Don Yitzchak Abarbanel, and the Mahril Mintz. Verona's ancient grandeur and an afternoon on Lake Garda. Then Ferrara, where the resting places of the Pachad Yitzchak and other tzaddikim are met with quiet reverence, and Cento, where the Sforno and the Mishnas Chasidim are honored. In Reggio Emilia, the journey reaches its heart: the kever of the Zera Shimshon, marked with a yartzheit seuda at a kosher winery.
Florence closes the journey in a different register entirely. Shacharis at a shul of remarkable beauty, then the artistry of the Accademia, the Ponte Vecchio, and the Boboli Gardens. An afternoon for shopping, an evening at a kosher winery.
For those who wish to extend the experience, an optional weekend in Rome awaits.
This is a journey through scholarship, sanctity, and beauty, woven into one experience and carried by those who know precisely how.

Review
Lalechet went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and pleasant trip. A departure trip out of Israelnin the middle of a war was no small feat. The entire burden was lifted from our shoulders. We trusted their judgement and expertise to make it happen and they didn’t disappoint. Would highly recommend them to anyone.
I cannot recommend Lalechet enough! From start to finish, the team was incredibly supportive, organized, and attentive throughout our journey from Israel through Egypt, to New York. Every step of the way, they helped guide us, answer questions, and make the trip manageable, even during very complicated and stressful moments. The care, effort, and thoughtfulness they put into helping everyone get through each stage was extraordinary. They anticipated challenges, calmly handled unexpected situations, and were very responsive. They also incorporated suggestions almost immediately after receiving them. The beautiful meals along the way were a real comfort adding warmth to the journey. Thank you, Lalechet, for everything you do for Klal Yisroel. Your hard work, attention, and chessed are truly remarkable. I’m deeply grateful for all the support, guidance, and reassurance you gave throughout the entire trip. Hashem should bless you a million times over!

The whole trip was amazing and extremely organized. Leibish was a great guide. The bus and accommodations were glorious as well. I would just more heimish tour guides in the future
Amazing!!! They arrange everything well in advance yet are able to adjust plans with even short notice if that’s what benefits the group. Absolute pleasure to travel with.
Was a experience that I never had before
Being a part of the Motzei Shabbos trip with Lalechet to Kerestir will insure me with absolutely amazing memories. A perfectly organized trip where every detail - from the biggest to the smallest - was planned to perfection. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who had a fabulous experience using the king of Jewish trips - Lalechet.
