Are you planning a holiday in Israel? Please be aware of possible health risks. We recommend vaccinations for Israel, though they are not mandatory. Which specific vaccinations you require for your trip to Israel, depends on the areas you will visit and on the duration of your stay in ‘the promised land’.
Israel is located in the Middle East and has a Mediterranean climate, plus a desert climate in the Negev. The country has a rich history that is still literally tangible in many places. Highlights in Israel are its sacred cities such as Jerusalem, the mystical deserts, the Dead Sea and the cosmopolitan city of Tel Aviv. Whatever you choose to do in Israel, protect yourself well against various infectious diseases, dengue mosquitoes and the strong sunlight.
