  2. Currency: Israel uses the Israeli Shekel (ILS), so make sure to exchange your currency before arriving. Most major credit cards are also accepted in tourist areas.

  3. Dress code: Israel is a diverse country with people from various backgrounds and beliefs. When visiting religious sites or conservative neighbourhoods, it's respectful to dress modestly and cover your shoulders and knees.

  4. Language: Hebrew is the official language of Israel, but many locals speak English fluently, especially in tourist areas. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it.

  5. Food: Israeli cuisine is a must-try! Don't forget to sample the local wine and craft beer too!

  6. Sabbath: Friday evening to Saturday evening is the Jewish Sabbath, and many businesses and public transportation shut down during this time. Plan accordingly and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.

  7. Security: Israel is a safe country, but like any other destination, it's always a good idea to be aware of your surroundings and keep an eye on your belongings.

Remember, the most important thing when visiting Israel is to have fun and immerse yourself in the culture. Enjoy your trip!
