Jerusalem is full of so much history, a variety of cultures and also has an unbelievable atmosphere. One of the places we recommend that you visit is the old city of Jerusalem. Not only can you find the most amazing foods in-between the narrow streets but you also get to experience gorgeous holy sites such as The Western Wall and the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
Eilat
Once you have done with all your touring around the beautiful county of Israel, Eilat is the ideal destination to help you unwind and relax. The beautiful city located at the southern tip of the country is packed with super hotels and resorts, as well as a large variety of many different activities to suit everyone. For example, visitors can dive along coral reefs and enjoy the stunning underwater world of the Red Sea while swimming with dolphins.
