If this is your first time in Tel Aviv, you’ll want to know the basics. The easiest way to reach Tel Aviv is by plane. As your plane begins to land, make sure you take a look out of the plane window. At night, you’ll see a dazzling array of lights, and in the day, try to spot the tel aviv sea-shore, Jaffa and the famous Jerusalem dome. The nearest airport to Tel Aviv is Ben Gurion International airport. It is constantly expanding and undergoing renovations, and the airport complex is completely modern and up to international standards. Be prepared for tight security at the airport. Remember to check your passport in advance, it should be valid for 6 months from your date of departure to Israel.
- Organize your ride from the airport – We recommend booking a shuttle or taking the train from the airport to Tel Aviv University train station. From there, you can catch bus number 13 towards the beach. Otherwise, you can use the Get Taxi app to order a taxi or simply wait in line for a cab at the airport. You can also pre-book a private taxi service.
- Pick the Right Season of the Year – Tel Aviv experiences hot, dry summers and warm, rainy winters due to its Mediterranean climate. Depending on your interests and what you’re looking for, you can use this information to decide on the timing of your vacation. Visit in the summer if you like hot weather and outdoor activities. Consider going in the winter if you like colder weather and fewer visitors. The best time to visit Tel Aviv is however in Spring and Autumn.
- Select the Proper Accommodation – Consider booking a hotel in Tel Aviv with a rooftop terrace or a spa if you’re searching for a romantic trip. If you’re traveling with children, think about staying at a hotel with child-friendly facilities.
- Think about the neighborhood – Each area in Tel Aviv has its own distinct personality and allure. Consider the area in which you wish to stay while selecting your lodge. For instance, if you’re planning a romantic holiday, think about staying in the lovely Neve Tzedek area. Consider lodging in the busy Carmel Market neighborhood if you want a lively atmosphere. If you’re looking for time on the beach, then we recommend booking a hotel on the beach in Tel Aviv such as Hotel Savoy.
- Schedule Your Activities – You can engage in a variety of activities in Tel Aviv, from touring the city’s museums and cultural landmarks to unwinding on its beaches and experiencing its exciting nightlife. Think about your interests and the things you wish to do on your vacation in Tel Aviv while making travel arrangements. Consider going to the Jaffa Museum or the Tel Aviv Museum of Art if you’re interested in history and culture. Visit Yarkon Park or the Tel Aviv Port if you’re looking for outdoor activities.
- Explore the local culinary scene – Fresh fish, hummus, and falafel are just a few of the delicacies to enjoy at Tel Aviv’s famed Mediterranean markets. Consider the city’s culinary scene and the kind of eating experience you’re seeking. For instance, if you’re looking for a restaurant for a romantic supper, think of one with a rooftop patio or a view of the Mediterranean. Consider checking out the city’s street food culture or visiting one of its numerous international restaurants if you’re searching for something special and different.
- Spend some time unwinding – Even though Tel Aviv is a busy city with a lively environment, it’s crucial to schedule time for rest and self-care while you’re there. Whether you’re searching for a serene beach to unwind on, a spa to unwind in or a park to wander through.
