Has anyone been to Israel recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to get a local SIM.

Different experience for me. Prices were lower when I went.

Also recommend downloading WhatsApp before you go. Essential.

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.
