Plan a Trip to Israel
There are lots of different tours and operators running trips all year round, all are unique and have different itineraries. You might want to choose a tour based on price or place visited. The three main cities in Israel which you might want to visit include Jerusalem (an ancient destination where East meets West) Tel Aviv (young vibrant atmosphere) and Haifa (located on the beautiful Med). Other places you might want to add to an itinerary include Masada, The Dead Sea, Yad Vashem, Israel Museum, Caesarea National Park, The Galilee and the Baha'i Gardens in Haifa.
Exploring Israel on overland tours is very popular, most trips usually start and finish in either Tel Aviv or Jerusalem. In Tel Aviv you can relax on the beach, explore the Old Quarter, enjoy the culture of the city and experience it's famous nightlife. You will then travel overland seeing the best destinations in Israel including the Baha'i Gardens, Sea of Galilee, Dead Sea and the facsinating city of Jeruslem. There are also Israel tours where you can go overland and visit more than one country, to view more about these trips check out our Egypt tours and Jordan tours.
Some trips start in Egypt and then cross from Dahab into Israel where the first stop off is usually the Dead Sea and Mount Masada. This is a really fun destination, there will be time to float and a relax in the dense water, before you will go to see King Herod's hilltop fortress of Mt Masada. From the Dead Sea you will usually next visit Jerusalem and explore this city with a local guide. In stark contrast to Jerusalem, Tel Aviv is a modern bustling hedonistic city. Time can be spent browsing in Boutique shopping areas, sipping a cocktail or two or just relaxing down at the beach.
Most tours have a maximum group size of 12 people and there are departures every month all year round. Israel is a country that is frequently in the news and travel advice can change at any time. Should it be impossible for Israel tours to run, operators will endeavour to place you on a different tour in the region and make arrangements to use the extra time to see further sights and attractions in nearby countries.
