Safety In Israel
We often get asked about how safe it is to travel to Israel. We recommend that all travelers educate themselves regarding safety and make their own choice. We recommend starting with reviewing travel alerts by the US Department of State and our information below. Additionally, we recommend that all travelers enroll in the STEP program administered by the US Department of State.
Israel is a safe place to visit and tourists feel completely secure visiting the country. With Bible In Color Tours, your safety in Israel is one of our top priorities.
According to the State Department, “Personal safety conditions in major metropolitan areas, including Tel Aviv and Haifa and their surrounding regions, are comparable to or better than those in other major global cities.” In fact, you are far more likely to encounter trouble in any major U.S. city than anywhere in Israel.
Armed security guards are stationed at many establishments in Israel for your safety. They may inspect your bags or use a metal detector upon entry. In Israel, the military also serves alongside the local police. We also keep close tabs on current security threats and adapt our tours as necessary to help ensure our client’s safety.
Israelis uphold a longstanding tradition of extending a warm welcome toward their tourists. This is why many visitors rank Israel so highly as a safe and worthwhile travel destination. This accounts for the ongoing increase in tourism to Israel during recent years.
Bible In Color Tours is dedicated to ensuring your complete safety at all times. Our ground operators in Israel are constantly monitoring conditions for the safety of our clients.
