Holidays in Israel

An introduction to Israel

Holidays in Israel re-make the mould. Granted, Israel's had its fair share of troubles. But the second you step foot in this legendary land, you realise it's a far cry from anything you expect. It's a land of fertile hills and arid deserts. Gilded temples and glistening skyscrapers. Sacred shrines and beaches worthy of sun worshippers's dreams. This is the stuff of Israel holidays.

No other city on earth means so much to so many people as Israel's capital, Jerusalem. Home to more holy spots than you can count on two hands, it exudes an electricity all of its own. Get overwhelmed by too many wonders? Slip off into New Jerusalem, where the Holy Land hums with normal life. And of course, Israel's got a few coastal aces up its sleeve as well...

Israel's west coast is home to one of the Mediterranean Sea's most glamorous cities. Part beach resort, part full blown metropolis, Tel Aviv has got it all. A New York's worth of shopping. A London's worth of culture. And enough golden sand to compete with the Med's best beaches. For a full-on holiday haven, head south to Eilat. This is the place for that all inclusive holiday on the Red Sea. Top hotels, world class diving and that all important blend of sun and sand.

Need a break with a rejuvenating edge? Israel has the answer – the Dead Sea. A lake so saturated in salts and minerals, you can't sink in it. Even the mud on its shore works wonders on any complexion. A 100% organic spa experience!
