Taxis and Transporation

Trusted Taxi Numbers in :

Jerusalem Smadar Taxi 02-5664444

Haifa Yehudah taxi 050-520-0888

Tel Aviv Azrieli 03-608-1333

Service Shuttle Taxis (Moniot Sherut)

Rather than paying lots of cash for  taxis you can use a shared shuttle which can either be accessed in front of the local bus station. In Jerusalem and Tel Aviv the Sherut stand is in front of the Central Bus Station.

There are also Moniot Sherut to the airport from Jerusalem, the company is called Nesher and will take you from your hotel to the airport and vice versa. IN MY OPINION their customer service leaves a lot to be desired and if you’re a backpacker you’re better off taking buses and trains.

From the airport to your hotel there is no need to book in advance, just go to the Shuttle stand in front of the airport.

Bus Companies and relevant information

For a website that covers all the bus routes (hebrew only) – bus.gov.il

Alternatively the ‘public transport’ tab in Google map is very useful:

Egged

Dan

Kavim (Hebrew only)

Metropoline

Nazareth Buses

Israel Trains

Israel Railways are reliable and very often the fastest way from one place to another.  The only exception is Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, we have to wait for the high speed link to be built!

Car Rental 

Shlomo Sixt –  Reliable and reasonably priced

Hertz – Very good service

Eldan – Reasonable Service
