What people love about Budget Tours in Israel
- Highlights of Israel and Jordan - 11 days
This tour was very good. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and explained a lot about the history of the places we saw as well as the overall history of the region. We upgraded our hotels and they were all wonderful. The only thing I would recommend is telling people how long it takes to make the drive to and from Jordan. We opted to do this tour instead of the one where you fly into Eilat, but if I had known how many hours we would be on the bus, I probably would have made the other choice. Because people came from various hotels in both Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, it took a long time to pick them up and then make the drive to Jordan, and the same on the way back. Those were very long days and too much time on a bus.
- Heritage of the Holyland and Jordan Tour - 11 Days
I really enjoyed the Israel part of the tour, Orna the guide and Fuad the driver. She is an amazing guide, always teaching and telling the whole history behind everything. The bus was clean and comfortable. Always on time, and both are very kind the driver and the guide. The hotels I didn’t enjoy that much, some of them were in no good conditions. The Jordanian tour was ok, the van was not so good, it was smelling cigar, and not really clean. As we drove for long hours there, I would expect little more explanation about the history of the country, and cultural background, not only at the stops we’ve made on the visiting points. The guide was friendly and on time, the hotels were ok, clean, but with low maintenance. I enjoyed the experience! Best regards.
- Highlights of the Holyland and Petra Trip Experience - 9 Days
Too much in so little time. 1st guide struggled to keep the group organized and if was difficult to hear and keep up. The last guide in Jordan couldn't separate his faith with his job and prevented him from presenting the history of the area. We had a great time,
What our customers ask about Budget Tours to Israel
When is the most affordable time to visit Israel on a budget tour?
The best deals in Israel come during March-April and October-November. These months bring pleasant weather fewer tourists and noticeably lower prices. The Dead Sea region becomes more accessible and budget-friendly during these periods while places like the Galilee and Jerusalem drop their hotel rates significantly. A TourRadar traveler shared: "We went in March and found the weather perfect and prices much better than peak season."
What are the best budget-friendly areas to stay in Israel?
Budget travelers often head to Tel Aviv's Florentin district where the Seanet Hotel offers reasonable rates or near Jerusalem's Damascus Gate where the Prima Park Hotel welcomes cost-conscious visitors. The waterfront area of Tiberias with options like the Prima Galil Hotel serves as another wallet-friendly base. According to TourRadar reviews: "The Florentin area in Tel Aviv had great affordable restaurants and a authentic local atmosphere."
How much should I budget daily for meals not included in the tour?
Plan for 30-45 USD daily for meals outside your tour package. Street food like falafel in Jerusalem's Old City runs 5-7 USD while casual restaurants in Tel Aviv charge about 15-20 USD for a meal. Local markets such as Mahane Yehuda in Jerusalem offer good value for fresh food and quick bites. As confirmed by a TourRadar traveler: "We saved money by eating at local markets and small family restaurants especially in Jerusalem's Muslim Quarter where prices were very reasonable."
What free activities are available on budget tours in Israel?
Many of Israel's most memorable experiences come without a price tag. In Jerusalem you can walk the Via Dolorosa see the Western Wall and visit the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for free. Tel Aviv's beachfront promenade and the ancient port city of Jaffa cost nothing to explore. The bustling Carmel Market and Mahane Yehuda offer free cultural insights. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The best experiences were actually the free ones - walking through Jerusalem's Old City and soaking in the atmosphere cost nothing but was priceless."
What entrance fees should I budget for that aren't typically included?
Set aside money for key attractions outside standard tour packages. The City of David Archaeological Park costs around 40 USD while the Tower of David Museum charges 15 USD. Special exhibits at the Israel Museum run about 21 USD and the Western Wall Sound and Light Show costs 15 USD. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The City of David tour was worth the extra entrance fee - just remember to bring cash as not all sites accept cards." Religious sites like the Western Wall and Church of the Holy Sepulchre remain free.
How much should I budget for local transportation costs?
Set aside 20-30 USD daily for transportation on non-tour days. A day pass for Jerusalem's public buses costs about 5-6 USD and typical taxi rides in Tel Aviv run 15-20 USD. As one TourRadar traveler mentioned: "Local transportation was affordable and efficient especially the convenient bus system between major cities."
