With the exception of Haifa, no public transport runs on the Sabbath (from nightfall on Friday to nightfall on Saturday) in Israel. Many restaurants and shops also close, though most of proudly secular Tel Aviv remains open. The same is true during religious holidays, which are particularly numerous in September and October.
Allow plenty of time when leaving Israel by air as the security checks are long and they question every single passenger BEFORE check in about where theyve been, what their relationship with eahother is, where theyre going.....etc. it takes time.Getting around - i hired a car through Angus (actually Budget) for £90 for 8 days which was great.Although they have tried to stitch me up with a scratch on the car. Driving is easy enough although easy to get lost in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, like i did.
.There are NO direct flights from the Philippines to Israel.In my 2009 travel, I took the cheapest flight to HK via CebuPacific then booked an EL AL flight from HK to Tel Aviv. El Al is Israel's flag carrier and has a good economy service on flight. It is also very easy to book online. When I got to Israel, I learned that many OFWs use the Korean Air because the fare is much cheaper.
UPDATE: Salamis Lines now says that they carry passengers too!! See: SalamisCan I get a ferry/ship/boat to Israel from Cyprus/Turkey/Greece?The question is asked often.Sadly there are no longer any ferries to Israel. There are a few shipping companies that still carry bulk cargo, but they don't carry passengers.The only way you can get to Israel by boat is on one of the fancy cruise ships that call at the port of Ashkelon/Haifa and then go on to Alexandria, Egypt.
Another mode of transportation in the Egged intercity busses. You can use them when going to visit most of the tourist attactions in Israel. Egged is running local lines within cities too, but rarely in Tel Aviv. Most of Egged busses are green, but some of them are white and red, those are the old ones that pretty soon will be replayced by the current green color.Usually, unless it's a local bus, Egged runs without too many stops on the way. For example, The Tel Aviv - Jerusalem route takes about 1 hour, same as Tel Aviv - Haifa. There are busses that run to Eilat, the Dead Sea, all the northern parts of Israel.... Well, as I said, Egged busses are all over the country. Tickets can be purchased from the bus drivers and there's no difference in price if you buy them at a ticket booth at the bus station. To the bus driver you have to pay cash, but it doesn't have to be the exact amount,...
I visited Rosh HaNikra and Akko on a daytrip from Haifa. In the morning I took the train from Haifa to Nahariya. It was 16 shekels and took 45 minutes. In Nahariya I went to the bus station, which is just next to the train station, and sat down to wait for the right bus. I had read there were not many buses a day to Rosh HaNikra, but I only had to wait for about half an hour. The bus to Rosh HaNikra takes about 15 minutes and cost 6,5 shekels (July 2005) and on arrival it stops just by the car park.When I was going to leave Rosh HaNIkraI couldn’t get any information about when a bus was leaving. After waiting for a while I asked a few car drivers for lift, but their cars were either full or were just going to a place near by. Finally a bus to Nahariya came. In Nahariya I changed buses and I didn’t have to wait many minutes. The bus from Nahariya to Akko was 7,6 shekels. It stopped in the...
Trains are quite useful when you go along the coast. All the way from Nahariya in the north to Ashdod in the south and then to Be'er Sheba. You can also use the train to get to/from the airport. Unfortunately, there is no train service to a lot of places in Israel. So, if you need to go to Jerusalem, Eilat, Tiberias, Sefad, Kiryat Shmone, etc. you'll have to take a bus (see the Egged transportation tip).
Those are twins of F-15, I am not sure if it is a transportation tip as they can speed up to about 2.5 mach, or, is it maybe a warning or dangers tip? Well, not really dangers as long as you are not trying to fly a Mig or Sukhoi into Israel
TRains in Israel today are a good way to travel though there's no lines to all areas in Israel so it wint fit you for all traveling around but you can check in the website below all the destinations it arrives to + of course timetables and prices. (As about prices i can say that traveling via train here is much cheapper then the prices in Europe !) April 2005: New line to Jerusalem (The train used to arrive to Jerusalem until 7 years ago and and now this line was renewed. The ride via trains takes a bit more then via bus but it should be a nice ride. Train from the Airport Another new thing as from November 2004 is the train to / from the airport, as you might know there's now new terminal - Terminal 3 -which is much bigger then the old one that used to be and there's a train that arrives right to this Terminal.However please note, at the late hours of night the train is not active and...
The Ben-Gurion International Airport is not far from Tel-Aviv and only about 40 min from Jerusalem.Easy to get to/from by taxi or local buses.When departing remember to get to the airport ahead of time do to the extra security measurements.
