Why you should visit Israel
Israel is a land where ancient history meets cutting-edge innovation, where golden deserts embrace turquoise seas and where every step tells a story thousands of years in the making. Whether you're a history enthusiast, spiritual seeker, foodie, adventurer or beach lover, Israel offers an unforgettable journey through time, culture and nature.
Here’s just a glimpse of what makes Israel a must-visit destination:
Jerusalem’s Old City
Walk through millennia of faith and history. From the Western Wall to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, this sacred journey weaves together the spiritual and historical heart of Jerusalem.
Tel Aviv
This vibrant coastal city combines Mediterranean beaches, a thriving nightlife, world-class cuisine and modern art.
Masada & the Negev Desert
Hike up the ancient fortress of Masada at sunrise or explore the lunar landscapes of the Negev for a true desert adventure.
Sea of Galilee & Nazareth
Discover the serene beauty and deep biblical roots of northern Israel.
Ein Gedi Nature Reserve

How's the weather in Israel?
Israel enjoys a diverse Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters with some regional variations between the coastal plains, inland cities and desert areas like the Negev.
Here’s a seasonal breakdown to help you understand what to expect throughout the year.
Fall
Temperatures begin to cool down from the intense summer heat, especially in the evenings. Days are generally warm and pleasant, with average highs between 22–30°C. An ideal time for cultural travelers, foodies and those who enjoy exploring cities like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem without the summer crowds.
Winter
Winters are mild in most parts, with temperatures ranging from 10–17°C. Rainfall is most frequent during this period, especially in the north and along the coast. This is perfect for those interested in hiking the green hills of Galilee or exploring historical and religious sites with fewer tourists
Spring
Arguably the best time to visit, spring brings blooming landscapes, comfortable temperatures (16–25°C) and low humidity. Ideal for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone keen on outdoor activities.
Summer
Expect hot, dry weather with temperatures often reaching 30–35°C or higher, particularly in inland and desert areas. Beach lovers and nightlife seekers will find Tel Aviv and Eilat especially vibrant during these sunny, energy-packed months.
Tips for a smooth trip to Israel
Plan ahead and be on time
For a smooth and stress-free trip to Israel, make sure you check your departure time and the terminal you’ll be using before you travel. With SAS, you can complete your digital check-in on our website or in the SAS App up to 30 hours before departure, helping you save time at the airport. Arriving early — especially during peak travel periods — gives you a more relaxed start to your journey and ensures you’re fully prepared for your flight to Israel.
Pack smart
When planning your trip to Israel, take a moment to review what you’ll need throughout your journey. Confirm that your ticket includes the baggage allowance that suits your travel plans and check the current weight and size limits. Adding extra baggage through the SAS App or website before you fly is often quicker and more cost-effective than arranging it at the airport. For a smooth start to your travel to Israel, review our latest baggage rules and restrictions so you’re ready well before departure.
