About this trip
Eight days across Israel that pair Jewish heritage sites with the country's best-known landmarks, from the Galilee to the Dead Sea.
You get five fully guided days covering the north, the coast and Jerusalem, with free time built in to explore at your own pace. Expect a mix of historical depth and classic sightseeing rather than a single-theme trip.
Nights are based in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, with day trips out to the Golan Heights, Masada and the coast.
What you'll do
- See the Golan Heights and the Sea of Galilee in Northern Israel
- Visit the holy city of Safed
- Explore coastal towns including Caesarea, Acre and Rosh HaNikra
- Tour Jerusalem, taking in the Western Wall and City of David
- Travel to Masada and float in the Dead Sea
- Five of the eight days are fully guided, with the rest left free for you to explore
- Early starts on tour days — pick up from Tel Aviv hotels is 6:30am, Jerusalem 7:50am
- You return to your hotel between 5:30pm and 7pm on tour days
Worth it if you value knowledgeable guides and solid organisation. Think twice if you need consistently high hotel standards across all locations.
- Guides were consistently informative, friendly, and genuinely helpful—one went out of her way to arrange meeting a relative.
- Jerusalem hotel was old, dirty, and felt unsafe; Tel Aviv and kibbutz hotels were fine, but standards vary significantly.
- Kibbutz chocolate factory was closed despite signage inviting visitors; pacing was good but optional activities like bird migration site weren't offered.
- Well organised with enough time at each site, good value for money, and hotel staff across locations were genuinely helpful.
