Israel - Netanya

[PollyCreo]

Going on Monday, has anyone been? It's a business trip so very excited and nervous!

I've lived in Israel for two years (many years ago granted). It's one of my favourite places on Earth. It's beautiful, great weather, and countless sights to see! You will love it!

Agree with Xela!

Also, eat everything and drink tonnes of amazing Israeli wine.

It's Palestine not Israel.

Israel is beautiful. How long are you going for? If you have time try and visit other places such as Haifa, Dead Sea, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv. Eat the amazing food and speak to locals. Enjoy!

Why would you be excited about visiting a country that regularly breaks international law?

Agree with all of this. Both old and new town in Jerusalem.

Amongst the amazing food, you have to have a falafel… mind blowing!

Enjoy 😊

We've just booked a week to Tel Aviv in may. Can't wait. So much to cram in though. The restaurants look amazing.

It’s funny how you mention going to Dubai or Qatar on here and you’ll get immediately slated because of their human rights

Not saying you shouldn’t go OP (my sister lived there for a few years) just noticing the difference

Netanya has beautiful beaches that go on for miles and the weather at this time of year is warm and sunny. Israel has lots of offer for tourists from all the historical and biblical sites to shopping and clubbing. It is very LBQT+ friendly. Hope you have a fun holiday

You are right @Longwhiskers but MN is full of double standards.

Catch up, it's been Israel since 1948

I’ve wanted to go to Israel for a while and hadn’t considered Netanya in potential itineraries, but it looks like it’s worth a visit! Thanks for bringing it to my attention, OP 🙌

Have a great trip!

Just back from Israel! What an amazing trip!

I am exhausted though, we spent so much time travelling and the traffic is horrendous! It was a business trip so enjoyed that side of it (Haogen) Unfortunately the weather was awful but we didn't go there for the weather. We visited a winery which was fantastic and then got taken to Nazareth, church of the Annunciation!

Oh and the food was amazing 😋
