Led by George Adams, these families made a 42-day journey overseas and landed where the Etzel Museum stands today, on the beach between Tel Aviv and Yafo. They brought with them the wood and household materials to recreate their homes here built in the New England style. When these American pioneers were granted permission from the Ottoman authorities, they ultimatley settled in what has come to be called “The American Colony.”The Drisco is a heritage-landmark, 5-star superior hotel, established in 1866, and a proud member of Relais & Châteaux. This boutique gem is located in the center of the picturesque and pastoral American colony, in a quiet and pleasant environment surrounded by beautiful historical houses, near Neve Tzedek, Noga & the Yafo Flea Market. With an adults-only policy, and soon-to-be-kosher chef's restarant, the Drisco creates the pefect Salon evironment to savor their in-house Kosher Israeli wine, while engaging with thought leaders in Israel today. thedrisco.comFormer Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren founded the Israel Advocacy Group to be an independent, credible voice for Israel on the world stage.
