• camleighton66 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Tourist Israel cancelled our pre-paid tour and kept my money! We had booked a 5 day Classic Israel Tour starting on Oct 29, 2023. On Oct 14th I received an email from the company letting us know that they had cancelled our tour, obviously because of the war that had just begun on Oct 7th. In the email, they stated the following: "Plesse note that we cancelled your 5 Day Classic Israel Tour Package. However, please know that regarding the tours booked with us, you have the option to keep the credit to reschedule for a future date." This wasn't unexpected or unreasonable given the circumstances in Israel at the time. What is unreasonable though, is their complete lack of communication since this email. I have sent at least 10 emails, starting when we returned home on Nov 8th and none of them have been returned or even acknowledged. The latest email was sent yesterday April 15, 2024. All I'm asking for is a full refund or even a confirmation that we have an equivalent credit that we can use with Tourist Israel or one of their sister companies. Tourist Israel has resumed operations and are conducting some tours so clearly they have the ability to respond to my emails but choose to completely ignore me. I would definitely not recommend dealing with Tourist Israel. They are happy to take your money but ignore you when there is an issue. Read more Written April 16, 2024

They also refunded us money we had paid for tour credits from 2020, when Israel shut down due to the pandemic. This has been a very difficult time for any business in Israel, and we are impressed that Tourist Israel has accommodated us in this excellent manner, given the circumstances. We fully intend to book future tours with Tourist Israel, as they have gone above and beyond to earn our business. Read more Written April 13, 2024

• 910shahzebm 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Missing refund! While sympathizing with the business operators on the ongoing unrest in Israel, I will not hesitate in pointing out their poor practice in issuing refunds. They still owe us a portion of our refund. My wife purchased a tour (booking number TI22710933) for our family of wife. We obviously cancelled it. We were expecting that in compliance with their published refund policy they would deduct 5% and return us the remaining amount. In reality they still owe us $634 of the estimated refund. They do not realize that this is not a negligible amount and that they must keep their end of the bargain. My wife has written them several emails but has not received any response other than the bot-generated response. I am not here to malign them, but I think after having waited for over 3 months it's about time, they either tell us that they are giving us back our money or be bold and brazen enough to tell us that we should forget about it.

5 Ways to Get from Tel Aviv to Petra

If you want to make the most of your trip to Israel then one of the great options is to include a side trip from Tel Aviv to Petra, Jordan. This UNESCO site and “World Wonder” is close enough to visit on a day trip from Tel Aviv. There are a number of ways to reach Petra, Jordan from Tel Aviv.

1-Day Petra Tour from Tel Aviv : You can easily find a great day trip from Tel Aviv to Petra which includes flights between Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport to the new  Ramon Airport  near Eilat. Some  tours from Tel Aviv to Petra  do not include the half-hour flight which can be purchased separately.

If you take a tour with a flight, you'll be picked up from the Ramon Airport to the border, then across the beautiful Jordanian desert to Petra. After touring the  Petra Archeological Park , you'll be taken back to Israel’s Ramon Airport and take the flight back to Tel Aviv. This is the best option if you don’t have a lot of time but still want to see Petra.

The trip to Petra starts the following day when you are taken from your Eilat hotel across the Arava border and to Petra. At the end of a full-day tour to Petra, you return to Eilat’s Ramon Airport for your flight to Tel Aviv.

This is an excellent option if you haven’t included Eilat in your itinerary and want to see this stunning Red Sea resort city as well as Petra.

Multi-Day Tours to Jordan from Tel Aviv : For those who have even more time in Israel, you could take a longer tour of Jordan and see more of the country in addition to Petra.

A range of Israeli tours includes either a combination of sites in Israel and Jordan or just several days in Jordan. On an extended tour to Jordan from Tel Aviv, you would see places like Amman, Jerash, Madaba, Mount Nebo and of course Petra.

Petra from Tel Aviv by Bus Tour

The cheapest Tel Aviv to Petra tour option is by bus. Petra tours from Jerusalem and Tel Aviv by bus offer pick-up in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem; a drive past the Dead Sea, through the Aravah Valley, and across the Aravah border from Eilat to Jordan. From there you continue to Petra for your sightseeing before making the return journey by bus to Tel Aviv or Jerusalem. The downside of this option is a very early morning start and a long bus trip as compared to the other Petra tours from Tel Aviv that include a short flight. However, for those on a budget, it is an ideal alternative.

Independent Travel from Tel Aviv to Petra

It is possible to travel from Tel Aviv to Petra independently. First, you will need to get yourself to the Arava border in Eilat. You can do this by taking a bus or flight to Eilat and from there a taxi to the border crossing. Remember to organize your Jordanian visa before traveling. If you are traveling without a tour group you cannot get a visa at the border. On arrival at the border, you will need to present your passport and visa. Once you have crossed into Jordan you will find taxis and self-proclaimed tour guides waiting on the Jordanian side ready to take you to Petra. 

The cost of traveling to Petra from Tel Aviv independently will include getting to Eilat from Tel Aviv; getting from Eilat to the Arava border; your visa fee(102-177ILS); exit tax from Israel (about 100ILS); transportation to Petra; entrance fee to the Petra Archeological Park(50JD-90JD); transportation back to the Jordan/Israel border; an exit tax from Jordan (about 10JD); transportation from the border to the Eilat bus station or airport and the price of your flight or bus back to Tel Aviv. If traveling from Tel Aviv to Petra independently we strongly recommend you visit your local Jordanian Embassy beforehand to find out about visa requirements.
