Hey, I am going to Israel on coming Friday (16 Jan). I am still positive! :)

To better prepare myself (and of course to pacify my parents and friends who really worry about my plan this time), can anyone on site in Israel (either travellers or locals) kindly give me some updates about the situation? particularly in Jerusalem, Bethlehem (West Bank seems to be one of the area with many riots), area around the Sea of Galilee (Tiberias, Nazareth, etc), Haifa and the Israel-Lebenon border ... these…

Hello All... We leave in one week for Israel and we don't have it all planned as of yet. We've got the guidebook, got the internet; yet, nothing is as good as advice from those who are there or who have done it. With that said, I'll try to keep it to a minimal amount of threads this week, as much as is possible anyway.

Let me begin...we get there late Saturday night, around 11:00pm. With that said, any good ideas of where to stay and how to get there as soon as possible? Tel Aviv is closest…

Hi Everyone,

What are good indian places to eat in Tel Aviv?

We tried the restaurant of a famous chain around Israel in Jerusalem and were underwhelmed.

24 rupees, sub kuch milaga, tanduri - what do you recommend?
Anything else?
On a side note - anyone have comments on Taste of Life in Tel Aviv?

Thanks!

Hello,

I have a serious problem. I knew the impossibility to visit Syria having visited Israel before, but I didn't know that you are unable to visit Syria if you are planning to visit Israel. The problem is that I bought a flight to Syria and a returning flight from Tel Aviv, because my plan was visit Syria, Jordan and then Israel. At the airport, the only way that they could know my plans to visit Israel, is with my flight ticket. So, my question is, is there any way to solve this problem?
I…

Hi Everybody...

Are there any beach camps in Eliat ? I've been all over the internet looking for one, no luck so far.

I can't seem to find any accomodations that fit within my super-low budget. Even the hostels seem pretty expensive. Does anybody have some insider advice for me ?

Thanks, and happy new year to all :)

Hi,

I'll be flying into Sde Dov from Eilat and want to take the train to Jerusalem. I've heard that the ride is beautiful.

Can someone tell me about the logistics? How do I get from the airport to the train station (and which one)?

Thanks!
