About Israel for visitors

Israel combines ancient biblical history with modern innovation—from Jerusalem's sacred sites to Tel Aviv's vibrant tech scene, the Dead Sea's healing mineral springs, and desert landscapes. Travelers explore layers of history, beaches, hiking, and culture within a territory small enough to cross in a day.

Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) near Tel Aviv is the primary international gateway. Immigration can involve security screening and questions; the process is professional but may take longer than standard entry procedures at other destinations, especially during peak travel seasons.
