 is thrilled to be helping her dad fully realize his lifelong dream of sharing his home, Israel, with you! She brings years of experience organizing and leading group trips to Cuba, as well as a personal love of Israel. Suzy was born and raised in New Orleans and moved back home after graduating from University of Wisconsin-Madison. After working as a JCC preschool teacher, she earned her Masters in Social Work from Tulane University. She began her career as a community social worker at Jewish Family Service until leading trips to Cuba full time for several years. She then worked as a clinical social worker and pottery teacher at the Broadmoor Arts and Wellness Center. After becoming a licensed clinical social worker, she started her private practice, which she continues to enjoy, incorporating pottery into her work whenever possible. She is also a very proud mom of 2 awesome boys who won't stop getting taller than her.

Susan Green 

traveled to Israel for the first time in 1987.  Now I’m excited to share my passion for this small but mighty country with you.  Whether it is walking in the footsteps of our biblical heroes in Jerusalem or visiting the vibrant sites in Tel-Aviv or Haifa, I’ll be able to draw upon my 14 previous visits to ensure our travelers leave looking forward to their next trip.

The absolute trip of a lifetime! The best way to experience Israel.  From the private guided tours to the beautiful accommodations to the daily itinerary, every detail was taken care of with perfection. Beautiful beaches, relaxing spas, historical sites and not to mention the most delicious food- I can’t wait to go back!

SLG

Ellen and I have been to Israel several times, on tours and by ourselves. Your program far exceeded all our other trips.And we are committed to be on another visitrael trip. This trip not only satisfied our intellectual needs but we  FELT the trip.

The sites visited touched our hearts, we had a better understanding of our heritage, and in some ways lived our history.

Many thanks , again, see you on the next trip.

Our leader, Suzy Lazarus, was cheerful and fun, while taking great care of all of us. She helped our group get to know each other and helped us all learn about Cuba and its people. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and would definitely do it again.

Ron Lepow

The tour lead by Suzy Lazarus was informative, and made traveling far from home easy.  Due to their dedication, most of my questions and concerns were taken care of before I could even ask!  Under their direction, our group of 20 came together and shared learning about the country in a way that enriched the experience for all.  I want Suzy Lazarus to lead me through all future vacations...is that possible?

Pam Levi

Suzy as a leader made the trip truly seamless, with the insight and patience of a seasoned Cuba traveler!
