There are many places in the world that offer you amazing opportunities for exploration and enjoyment. Such places are stupendous for a Jewish holiday, a kind of getaway where you can dine on kosher cuisine while enjoying all the sights and sounds that that locale has to offer. We’ve been yearning for a getaway opportunity for a long while now, and while things are slowly getting better, we thought about all the places that we want to visit.
Whether you are looking for a relaxing vacation or an adventurous excursion, there are several destinations around the world that cater to Jewish travels. We found that river cruising is one of the more fulfilling methods of adventure there is. Not only are you booked on a smaller and more manageable cruise line complete with luxury accommodations, you can also enjoy great scenic land tours in various riverside spots. With all that said, what rivers would be recommended for an excellent Jewish travel experience? Here are a few.
The Douro River of Portugal
The Douro River weaves through one of Portugal’s most homey and pleasant regions, a valley that nourishes various vineyards and quaint villages. It’s a place where wine is made and enjoyed, and also a place where various sites of Jewish heritage can be found. The Douro is a place not to miss.
The Danube, Europe
This grand waterway passes through several different European countries, from Hungary to Austria. It is a place that has allowed for the rise and prosperity of various kingdoms, a place that winds through several European capital cities, from the illustrious locale of Vienna to the bountiful streets of Belgrade. If you want several vacations in one, visit the Danube on a kosher travel cruise.
Rhone, France
France is well-known for its majestic capital city, along with its ephemeral art and cultural contributions to the world. Far from the urban centers of the country is the Rhone River, traveling through the south of France and passing by small towns, cultural cities, and majestic landscapes. There’s a number of Jewish heritage sites to be found in the southern part of France, so a Rhone cruise is one of the best ways to see it.
