The best packing lists for Israel

Israel is small but vertically extreme. Jerusalem sits at eight hundred metres and turns cold and wet in winter, while the Dead Sea lies four hundred metres below sea level and bakes in summer. Doing both in one day is realistic, and both have to fit the same case.

Good to know for Israel

Holy sites of every religion expect you covered: no vest tops, no shorts, and a head covering for men at the Western Wall. Loose linen or cotton answers the heat and the dress code at once.

For the Dead Sea bring swimwear you no longer care about, because the salt attacks fabric, plus water shoes, because the bed is crusted and sharp. Shaving the day before is a lesson you learn once.

Electricity is the genuine oddity: Israel uses type H sockets. Type C plugs usually fit, Schuko plugs do not, so pack an adapter in your carry-on. 230 volts, shekels, cards almost everywhere, and tap water you can drink.
