Former Arkansas Governor, Fox News host, pastor and 2008 Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee also moonlights as a tour guide and registration is currently open for his annual trip to the Holy Land. For a minimum of $4,629, Mr. Huckabee’s website promises you will “experience Israel in a way you never imagined possible.”
“The Israel Experience with Mike Huckabee” will take place from February 19 to February 28, 2012. It will be Mr. Huckabee’s 16th trip to Israel. He first visited the country as a teenager and eventually began leading trips there with his congregation. According to his website, the upcoming trip will include talks with “top Israeli officials on why America is such a valuable ally” and trips to Christian spiritual sites.
Mr. Huckabee’s family business conducts his Israel trips and the price of the journey has gone up 15% since 2010. Watch a two minute trailer featuring footage of past trips and a pumping techno soundtrack below.
