Welcome to the Uman Experience of 5771 - 2010 our 4th year running!
The old timers to the Uman Experience know how this company has grown from a loving idea of a couple people to an unstoppable force.
New comers, well, Uman isn't on the top "10 Hot Spot" list for vacationing, nor is it a center for fashion, science, or great artists.
We travel to Uman for one reason, to recover from what life has thrown at us, to find an inner peace and strength, to connect to something greater than ourselves; to close our eyes and say, this is it, this is what I have been searching for; a scenario most people think not possible.
Rebbe Nachman's force hits people in different ways - as he pulls us close to him, everyone goes through their own personal journey. Some of us connect to the unbelievable high energy that's palpable in the air and ride the wave; some of us open up to a brother we have never met before and let go of a deep secret, some of us find a hidden tranquility we've never known before and realize each new day is a new beginning and we all have a second chance, and some us, just can't stay away.
Once our mind is made up to go to Uman, reality does kick in. It's a third world area, full of cheats, mafia and danger. The issues become real of where to stay, where to eat and what to do next. That's were we come in.
As part of the Uman Experience family we can honestly tell you, we work hard all year round planning, traveling back and forth preparing for your visit. On top of that, we have our own in-house caterer, creating his culinary delights to keep us fed; all your needs are taken care of for you the minute you arrive. Best of all, and of course this sets us apart from being just a 5 star place to crash and rest our weary bones, we have our loving Rav and mentor as part of the Uman Experience family, Rav Lazer Brody. He is with us for guidance, amazing lectures and some good fun. This is our uniqueness, spirituality and physical needs rolled into a complementary package, our guests feel at home; we are a non political, nonjudgmental group, only interested in you as a person.
Whats the one thing men struggle with when leaving wives and children behind for Rosh Hashana?
It's leaving them behind...!
Well, start planning your family's trip, because we will welcome your whole family as we will be open all year round after this year's Rosh Hashana!
After this years Rosh Hashana trip, we will be open as a permanat Guest house to families, couples, groups, large or small, all those seeking a home atmosphere with guided tours, cooked meals, a home away from home that is safe, unique and beautiful!
(Updates for trips year round will come out on a monthly bases, B"H or on request, VIP trips available as well.)
Our Uman Experience Estate is comprised of:
A beautiful gated environment; although a minute walk to the Tzion, we are located on a quiet side street with a 24hr. guard.
Our estate is built as private suites; each suite has 3 bedrooms. Bedrooms are outfitted with large comfy mattress and closet room for each person; bedrooms are airy, each with his own bathroom. Each suite has a kitchen and balcony, (suite kitchens will be open for tea and coffee only during Rosh Hashana, not for cooking).
Our main floor is the place to mingle, relax and meet like minded people; we will eat together, laugh together and get strengthened together in our large comfortable dining room, with extra bathrooms for your convenience.
Our estate houses our own private mikva and will not be open to anyone not with our group.
One of our staff will be at the gate to greet you, and send you in the direction of your room, help you locate the synagogues if it's you're first time, and be available for any questions.
