Israel Travel Guides

Attractions:


As the the birthplace of Christianity and Judaism, Israel is densely packed with enough attractions and experiences to last a lifetime.

For lovers of sun, sand and sea, head to the renowned Red Sea and enjoy floating in its crystalline turquoise waters; or for a rejuvenating experience, visit one of the many Dead Sea spa resorts and while you're in the area, head to Israel's most popular tourist destination of Masada located in the Judean Desert.

Bethlehem is worth a visit, as well as Nazareth, one of the most important Christian holy sites where Jesus spent most of his life; while Yad VaShem is an important memorial to the Holocaust providing a multifaceted tribute to the millions of Jews who died during World War II.

The best time of year to visit is during the spring (March/April) and autumn months (September/October), when the weather is cooler and more tolerable for tourists. Since travelling distances are not great in Israel, it's often almost quicker to drive to some places than to catch a plane. There are good public transport systems in place in the major cities. The best way to experience Israel is to hire a car and take a relaxed approach to seeing the country and exploring all the religious and historical sites it has to offer.
