Take your time, relax in your chair and read my useful information before you visit Israel. I would like to share with you few tips that will make your stay over in Israel pleasant and enjoyable:
- To avoid dehydration always carry a bottle of water. Drink plenty of water on a daily basis (drink at least 1 1/2 liter per day). You may use mineral water but tap water in Israel is safe to drink.
- When exposed to sun, wear a wide-rim hat that will provide a sun protection to your nape and forehead.
- The UV is very high therefore using a high UV sun screen is essential.
- Wear sunglasses at all day time.
- Wear comfortable shoes and light layers of clothing (in the winter season, be equipped with warmer clothes).
- Women should dress modestly (sleeves and long pants/skirts/dresses) when walking through religious areas and Holy Sites.
- Bring light jackets for the mountains and desert areas (in summer time).
- Rent a pre-paid or pay-as-you-go cell phone at the airport.
- Go everywhere with your cell phone.
- Prepare all your senses to feel the diversity of the smells, the tastes, colors and the variety life styles in Israel.
