Getting around Israel
Fast trains link Ben Gurion, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and Beersheba; buses cover the rest. Almost nothing runs from Friday afternoon to Saturday night.
Key facts
- Ride-hailing apps: Gett.
- Driving: on the right. Carry an IDP (1968) with your home licence; rental firms accept most licences. Israeli rentals can't enter Palestinian Area A.
