Travel to Israel with a ‘back to basics’ simplicity that provides a holiday with a difference. However, don’t confine yourself to stereotypes when thinking about campsites in Israel. Most camping sites in Israel have good amenities, green lawns, gardens and picnic tables for alfresco eating. Facilities include on-site restaurants for those who are too tired from their hike to cook dinner. They also cover the basics like fridges, lighting, toilets, electric sockets (useful for re-charging cellphones), food stores, telephone facilities, post boxes and first aid. Many also have 24/7 security.

Whichever location you choose for your Bedouin camping in Israel, you will enjoy the same warm welcome. Bedouins are famed for their hospitality and like to receive visitors, relate stories and enjoy sharing traditional Arabic food.
