NOFIM

NOFIM is a division of Yifei Nof Tours geared towards women 55+ who are looking for a trip with light hiking and adventure, and more leisure time to take advantage of the beautiful scenery. NOFIM means views, and that is what you are going to see: beautiful landscapes and scenery that Hashem has created for you!

If you are looking for an opportunity to explore Hashem’s beautiful world then NOFIM by Yifei Nof Tours is for you. NOFIM is geared towards frum women who are 55+, and on previous Yifei Nof trips we have attracted women from across the United States as well as Eretz Yisrael and Canada. Our participants come from a broad spectrum of Orthodox Jewry and have loved learning about how much we have in common.

Yes, NOFIM is meant for frum women who enjoy outdoor travel and activity, but who may prefer a more relaxed pace and a somewhat easier level of hiking than our standard Yifei Nof Tours women’s trips. While the trips are geared towards women in the 55+ demographic, you are welcome to join if the pace and vibes are what you seek! Additionally, we anticipate that a NOFIM trip might be a great option for a multigenerational family trip… so come with your mother/grandmother/daughter/granddaughter (as long as she is post seminary) and make those memories! 

On a NOFIM trip you can anticipate visiting the same beautiful locations as Yifei Nof Tours, but with easier hikes and more leisure time to take advantage of the scenery. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy adventures which are less strenuous such as kayaking, jeep tours, gondola mountain rides, and river rafting.

The first NOFIM trip will take place July 20-24 to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.  The subsequent NOFIM trip will IYH take place in February 2026.

While NOFIM trips aren’t as active as Yifei Nof Tours, you need to be steady on your feet, free from balance issues, and comfortable walking 2+ miles at a time.

As an independent traveler, you will be responsible for yourself, your possessions and your own physical fitness. If you are physically impaired, require assistive aids for walking/balance, or require assistance managing your luggage (to include carrying luggage up stairs), NOFIM may not be for you. Other travelers cannot be expected to assist you with mobility and with luggage management. This applies to NOFIM staff as well, who have responsibilities to the larger group and must prioritize the needs of the tour as a whole. 

If you experience a change in mobility during the trip itself, NOFIM staff will assist you in discussing options and alternatives if you cannot manage the planned activities. However, any additional expenses or missed activities will not be reimbursed by NOFIM.

So that we can visit the many beautiful locations on our itinerary, there are times when we will have longer drives that may extend to 3 hours - or even longer. The scenery outside your windows will be spectacular, and you will have wonderful and engaging frum women sitting near you with whom to shmooze. If you prefer, you can bring a book, or something to listen to with headphones. Yet please do be prepared for some driving... the sheer scope of the Western US is huge! Because of the distances involved, please recognize that our days are long, and can extend to 10 hours or more from departure to arrival back at our home bases. 

Our goal is to offer unforgettable and affordable travel for frum women. Our hotels are comfortable and clean, yet we do not aim for 5-star luxury. Our food is wholesome, delicious and plentiful, but we do not offer high-end gourmet cuisine. If you are looking for a luxurious 5-star vacation, NOFIM may not be the best option for you. If you are seeking a refreshing trip to marvel at niflaos Haborei together with like-minded women, and to enjoy outdoor activities, then NOFIM is for you!

We try to accommodate dietary requests whenever possible and to a reasonable degree, so please reach out to us to discuss if and how we can assist with those needs. Due to our mission of affordable kosher travel, especially as we travel to remote places, access to kosher food is difficult. While we will provide ample, healthful kosher products, access to heimish hechsherim is limited, and we may be less able to accommodate specific dietary requests. If you have a very specific dietary need or preference, you may wish to bring along some of your special foods from home.

All of our prepared foods are under the supervision of reputable hashgachos and any stocked food in the homes will have a generally accepted hechsher such as OU or Star-K. Meat products are always Glatt kosher. Chassidish shechitah may be available upon request for certain trips. Chalav Yisrael dairy products are always present on our trips, and limited Pas Yisrael foods can be made available upon request. We aim to offer non-dairy milk alternatives on our trips, and limited gluten free items can be provided upon request.
