Frommer's Israel
Description
From the most trusted name in travel, Frommer's Israel is a comprehensive, detailed, and opinionated guide to one of world's most storied destinations. Written by expert local journalists, it covers all of Israel's most important and awe-inspiring historic, cultural, natural and religious sites, with information on side trips to Petra, as well.
Included in this guide are:
· Evocative photos and dozens of helpful maps, including a detachable fold-out map
· Detailed itineraries for planning a trip that will suit your schedule and interests (and help you avoid lines and crowds)
· Compelling cultural information so that you'll better understand the history, culture, cuisine, and traditions of Israel
· Candid reviews of the best restaurants, historic sights, museums, tours, shops, and experiences―and no-punches-pulled info on the ones not worth your time and money
· Accurate, up-to-date info on transportation, useful websites, telephone numbers, safety issues, and more
· Budget-planning help with the lowdown on prices and ways to save money, whether you're traveling on a shoestring or in the lap of luxury. And unlike our competition, we include exact pricing in our guides so that you can create a realistic budget and stick to it
