Mediterranean City

Nimble & Easy to Park

Auto

Tel Aviv's coastal streets around Hashalom can be tight and busy, and parking in nearby neighbourhoods is famously scarce. A small hatchback slips into kerbside bays, copes well with stop-start traffic on Rothschild and Ibn Gvirol, and keeps running costs sensible. Air-conditioning and a tight turning circle are genuine lifesavers in the humid summer months.

Coastal Day Trips

Comfortable Cruiser for the Shore

Auto

A relaxed day run from Hashalom down to Herzliya, Caesarea or the beaches of Netanya is best done in a medium saloon with room for four and their bags. The smooth ride handles motorway pace comfortably, and boot space easily swallows beach gear, a cool box and folding chairs. A reliable air-con system is essential for the long, hot summer along the coast.

Negev Weekend Escape

Ready for Desert Roads

Auto

Travellers heading south from Tel Aviv towards Masada, the Dead Sea or the Eilat mountains benefit from a small SUV with higher clearance and a sturdier feel. It handles the heat, offers generous luggage capacity for two nights away, and feels reassuring on the long, fast Route 90 and Arava roads. Automatic transmission is strongly recommended for long motorway stretches in 40°C heat.

Tel Aviv Car Rental Guide

Essential answers to your top questions about driving and renting a car in Tel Aviv, Israel

Can I drive in Israel with my UK licence, or do I need an International Driving Permit?
UK licence holders can drive in Israel for up to one year with their full UK licence alone—no IDP required. However, an IDP is recommended as a useful backup document, especially for rental pickups where some companies may request it. If your licence is not in English or Hebrew, a certified translation is advisable.
How do I pay for toll roads in Israel? Do I need an e-tag device?
Route 6 and certain other Israeli highways use video-based tolling—no physical booths. You'll receive a bill by post (around 30-50 ILS per segment) or via your rental company's account. Renting an e-tag (about 15-25 ILS/day) saves hassle and often discounts tolls by 20%. For occasional driving, pay-by-post is fine; for regular highway use, the e-tag is worth it.
I'm 23—will I be charged a young driver surcharge, and how much?
Yes, drivers under 24 typically pay a young driver surcharge in Israel, ranging from 30-50 ILS per day (approximately £6-10). Some companies only apply this to under-21s, so quote your exact age when comparing. The surcharge usually applies to the base rental rate, not extras like GPS or insurance.
What are the parking rules in Tel Aviv, and what's the likely cost?
Street parking in central Tel Aviv costs 6-10 ILS/hour (roughly £1.20-2) during working hours (8am-8pm, Sun-Thu). Blue-and-white zones require payment via the Pango app; green zones have longer free periods. Private car parks average 30-60 ILS per entry. Avoid parking on Saturday in religious areas—streets can be blocked without notice.
Any unusual traffic rules I should know before driving in Israel?
Two key rules differ from the UK: (1) Red light generally means stop—no right turn on red is permitted. (2) At roundabouts, vehicles inside the roundabout have absolute priority—don't enter expecting others to give way. Speed cameras are active on highways; fines arrive by post to the rental company first, then to you, typically adding a 20% admin fee.
Is Israel safe to drive year-round, or are there seasonal hazards?
Israel has no winter snow in most tourist areas—summer (June-August) brings extreme heat (35°C+) and heavy air conditioning load; check coolant and tyre pressure before long drives. The main hazard is November-March: sudden heavy rain causes flash flooding on desert roads (特别是 Route 90 in the Arava). Avoid wadi crossings if rain has fallen recently. Summer tyres are standard; winter tyres are rarely needed.
