Planning your trip to Israel should be easy and exciting. We’ve gathered simple tips to help you travel smoothly and settle in comfortably for the celebration.

Travel

Getting to Israel

Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Tel Aviv (TLV – Ben Gurion Airport) run regularly with Air Canada and El Al offering direct routes.

You’ll need a valid passport (with at least six months before expiry) and an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA-IL). You can apply for the ETA-IL on israel-entry.piba.gov.il

We recommend booking your flights and accommodation early, as prices rise closer to the summer season.

From Ben Gurion Airport

Getting to Tel Aviv or Jerusalem is simple and quick. The train from Ben Gurion Airport runs frequently to both cities, or you can use Gett Taxi, Israel’s version of Uber.

Tel Aviv, ~45 mins to Caesarea

A city that never stops moving — Tel Aviv blends beaches, cafés, and culture with easy access to the celebration. Stay near the sea, explore lively markets, and enjoy evenings filled with food, music, and Mediterranean air.
