Huckabee’s family sells pay-to-play access tours to Israel - report

The family of US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee is still profiting from paid tours that promise American citizens access to senior Israeli officials, according to a Zeteo report.

The travel business, now run by Mike Huckabee’s son, and previously marketed as “The Israel Experience with Governor Mike Huckabee,” has taken hundreds of Americans to Israel over the years.

🔴 the price tag is $5,250 per person, covering flights from New York, five-star hotels and meals

🔴 itineraries promise exclusive access, such as meetings with senior Israeli officials and evening lectures featuring hardline pro-Israel figures

🔴 Palestinian communities and towns are entirely absent from the tours

A previous NYT report found that Huckabee’s chief of staff, David Milstein, had diluted or blocked embassy assessments critical of Israel to present PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s government more favorably to President Donald Trump.

Milstein was also reported to have subjected staff to loyalty tests, asking whether they were “pro-Israel” or “pro-Hamas” - an approach that reportedly left some officials afraid to speak openly.

❗️Huckabee himself has repeatedly denied that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, and claimed there is “no such thing as a Palestinian.”
