Money, cards and tipping
The currency is the shekel (₪, NIS). Cards are accepted almost everywhere, including taxis and market stalls, and contactless is the norm. Small cash is still worth having: some market traders, sheruts and small places prefer it.
Tipping is expected in restaurants at around 10–15% unless service is already included, and a few shekels is normal for a taxi. Hotel staff and guides are tipped at your discretion.
Staying connected
Tourist SIM cards are sold at the airport and around the city, and eSIMs are widely used. Public Wi-Fi exists in cafés and some public spaces but is not something to depend on for maps.
For a car, our drivers reach you by phone or WhatsApp, which is why giving a reachable number when you order matters more than anything else on this page.
Safety, health and the numbers to save
Tel Aviv is a safe city by the standards of any large city, and walking at night in the centre is unremarkable. Tap water is drinkable. The sun is stronger than visitors expect — the beach is where most trips go wrong, not the streets.
Save these: 100 police, 101 ambulance (Magen David Adom), 102 fire. Emergency rooms are open on Shabbat; most pharmacies and clinics are not.
