Israel is a small yet fascinating country located in the Middle East. As the birthplace of three of the world's major religions - Judaism, Christianity, and Islam - Israel is steeped in history, culture, and spirituality.
Israel is also a great destination for foodies, with a cuisine that reflects the country's diverse cultural influences. Some must-try dishes include falafel, hummus, and shakshuka, a dish made with eggs and tomatoes.

It is downright impossible to find a place on Earth that would be steeped in legends and Biblical stories as much as Israel. Jesus Christ, King David, St John the Baptist, Herod the villain, wise King Solomon – all of them walked this land.
Israel is known not only for its holy sites but also for the breath of antiquity, rich culture and developed tourism industry.
The Dead Sea, for instance, is famous all over the world for the unique qualities of oxygen- and bromine-rich air as well as for the water containing virtually all the elements of the periodic table.
The cleanest air, healing springs and Dead Sea mud – this is heaven for your health!
Natural Landmarks and Lakes
Beit Guvrin Caves (Maresha City)
These caves are a part of the nature reserve. Today, it spans a huge number of caves and tombs. The first caves were cut out right from the chalk rocks. In the past, every cave had its own purpose. Most of them were, at different times, populated by various peoples who believed themselves legitimate residents of the land.
The River Jordan
This place is indeed unique and unbelievably beautiful. Various species of fish live freely in the waters of the river. Catfish are especially abundant in the Jordan since the locals never draw them out: this type of fish is not considered kosher by the Israeli people. Travelers walking along the river bank often see nutrias swim up to people without fear and beg for treats.
The Oasis of Ein Gedi (the Judean Desert)
The oasis formed in the desert due to a natural phenomenon. Rainwater from the Judean Mountains started seeping through the limestone soil. As a result, there appeared a spring surrounded with greenery. Those who have tried the local water point out its pleasant taste and crystal purity.
Lake Tiberias
A large freshwater lake in the north of Israel; the source of drinking water in the region. Has great historical, industrial and recreational significance. Was mentioned in the Bible multiple times; remains a pilgrimage site. Along the shoreline, one can find numerous recreation areas, beaches, spa and mud baths. This is also a place of active commercial fishing.
Sights
Caesaria National Park
When speaking of Caesaria today, some people imply the seaside town with a developed tourism infrastructure while others refer to the National Park with an impressive collection of archaeological monuments. Remarkably, both parties are right.
Al-Aqsa Mosque (Jerusalem)
This mosque is one of the most important symbols of Islam and a revered Muslim shrine. The mosque is huge; it comprises spacious inner halls capable of accommodating up to 5 thousand visitors at a time. Unlike the majority of Muslim temples, it sets no confession limitations: anyone can enter the mosque if their clothes are modest and cover the arms and legs.
The Old City of Jaffa
Many historians believe Jaffa to be the most beautiful architectural monument of the famous Tel Aviv. Every year, it is visited by hundreds of thousands of tourists who have chosen Israel as their vacation spot. Jaffa leaves an impression that lasts for a lifetime.

How it works
Couple (2 persons)
Ovda Airport in Eilat
Situated inside the very city. There are only a few minutes of walking between the space-efficient terminal and the center of Eilat with its hotels, malls, and the seaside. At present, the authorities are planning to relocate the airport to the outside of the city; work is underway in the Ovda Air Base 25km to the north of Eilat. With time, the military will be transferred from the air base to give way to the international airport of Eilat.
Haifa Airport
Situated 5km from the city center and adjacent to the sea port. City bus 58 follows this route. At present, the airport is used for domestic flights to Eilat. It also serves charter flights to the neighboring Cyprus, Jordan and Turkey.
Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport
Passengers departing or arriving by domestic flights at Ben Gurion Airport should know that the Ben Gurion domestic terminal is located rather far (about four kilometers) from the international terminal, the point of public transport departure for different cities. Free shuttle buses run between the terminals.
Rosh Pina Airport
Rosh Pina Airport is situated in Israel and serves Rosh Pina City. Rosh Pina Airport is located 2 kilometers from the city center. The city of Rosh Pina has no other airports. Rosh Pina Airport serves domestic flights only. For domestic flights, passenger registration and cargo handling usually start 2 hours and end 40 minutes before the departure.
The Effendi Hotel Akko
The hotel consists of restored houses built in place of ancient buildings which once were palaces of the Ottoman rulers. Even though the rooms at the hotel are contemporary, they preserve the charm and features of the original ancient cultures. In the rooms, there are king-size beds, bathrooms decorated with marble, and exquisite bedding. We've had a rest befitting true sultans!
Beresheet Mitzpe Ramon Hotel
A magnificent view of the 24-mile crater! The hotel consists of two-storey private villas designed to overlook as much of the desert as possible and blend into the surroundings. All rooms have separate entrances, and ours even had a pool!
The American Colony Hotel
A very charming hotel with a beautiful courtyard, a pool, a very nice gym and amazingly competent and friendly staff. This was definitely a 5-star experience. I strongly recommend it. Thank you!
Dan Eilat Hotel
Rooms are clean, staff is considerate and helpful. Breakfasts are varied, a wide selection of dishes. We've been to many Eilat hotels, Dan is one of the best in Eilat.

This is a mighty, ancient defensive fortification on the top of an impregnable rock in the Judean desert. In the ancient times, it was used as a fortress and a fortified residence of the ruler and his family. In the ruins, one can find numerous old buildings of high historic value.
The Negev Desert
An extensive desert that occupies almost one half of Israel. It comprises archaeological excavation areas, monasteries, unique natural landmarks. The Central Negev Mountains are especially popular with tourists.
The Dead Sea
This waterbody is famous for its unique features: it is almost 500 meters lower than the global sea level, and its waters contain useful microelements from the springs opening onto its very bottom. This is why along the shoreline, there are numerous health centers offering treatment with thermo-mineral water.
The Rosh HaNikra Grottoes
This is a set of solution caves with grottoes and tunnels, located on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea. It is a natural attraction that fascinates many tourists with its unusual beauty. Inside the grottoes, one can find lighted pedestrian pathways. The entire route stretches for about 600 meters.
Makhtesh Ramon
What is it like, standing on the edge of the world's largest erosion crater? Makhtesh Ramon is a geological phenomenon: it was created by neither meteorites nor volcanoes. In reality, this otherworldly hollow appeared about 200 million years ago due to winds and rainfalls.
Hummus
This is a snack in the form of golden-colored paste seasoned with olive oil. Hummus is sold with pita bread wrapped in paper for convenience. This type of food may serve as an appetizer before lunch or dinner or as the main dish.
Falafel
An inexperienced tourist may easily mistake these for meatballs but in fact, falafel is made of mashed beans fried to a golden crisp. This is delicious!
Blue Sky
A restaurant of haute cuisine by Israel's best chef, my idol, Meir Adoni. Contemporary Mediterranean food, head-spinning combinations of flavors, a riot of color and texture. A luxury atmosphere and a magnificent view of the city. At Carlton Hotel on the quay.
HaSalon
The restaurant of Eyal Shani, a culinary genius. Unmatched, high-league culinary surrealism. Very authentic, unlike any other restaurant, with dishes of unforgettable taste and presentation. In the western part of Tel Aviv.
