Book Description

Lonely Planet will get you to the heart of Israel

About the Author

Criado cerca de San Francisco y Chicago, Daniel Robinson pasó parte de su infancia en Jerusalén, un poco de su juventud en el kibutz Lotan y muchos años en Tel Aviv, donde se doctoró en Historia Otomana, cubrió atentados suicidas con bomba para la Associated Press y contribuyó a la campaña de Critical Mass a favor de los carriles bici. Posee una licenciatura en Estudios sobre Oriente Próximo por Princeton y un máster en Historia Judía por la Universidad de Tel Aviv. Daniel es coautor (con Tony Wheeler) de la primera guía de Paris de Lonely Planet y lleva desde 1989 siendo autor habitual de guías Lonely Planet.

Aunque afincada en Australia, Virginia Maxwell pasa el menos medio año actualizando para Lonely Planet destinos de Europa y Oriente Próximo. Si bien el Mediterráneo es la zona que más le interesa, ha cubierto España, Italia, Turquía, Siria, el Líbano, Israel, Egipto y Marruecos para las guías Lonely Planet. Virginia ha escrito también para las guías Lonely Planet de Finlandia, Armenia, Irán y Australia. En Instagram y Twitter se la puede seguir en @maxwellvirginia.

A pesar de haber viajado a más de 120 países desde México hasta Lesoto, el principal interés de Jenny Walker es Próximo Oriente, donde los últimos ocho años ha trabajado como decana adjunta para el Desarrollo Profesional en el Caledonian College of Engineering de Mascate. Su primer contacto con la región fue como estudiante, cuando recogía insectos para el libro sobre entomología de su padre en Arabia Saudí; después escribió una disertación sobre Doughty y Lawrence (Universidad de Stirling), una tesis de máster sobre el Oriente arábigo en la literatura británica (Universidad de Oxford) y una tesis doctoral sobre el desierto árabe como tropo en la literatura británica contemporánea (Universidad de Nottingham Trent). Miembro del Gremio de Escritores de Viajes de Gran Bretaña y del Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild, Jenny ha escrito ampliamente sobre Oriente Próximo para Lonely Planet durante más de una década.

We went to Israel by ourselves and all of the areas we visited were in this travel book. It had just enough information to help us feel educated and interested but not too in depth that we felt like we were in a history class. This book made a HUGE difference for us, we got way more out of our trip and now every time I travel abroad I will ALWAYS take a Lonely Planet book with me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE FOR FIRST TIME TRAVELERS TO ISRAEL

I can't recommend this guid enough if you're planning a trip to Israel and the surrounding Territories. I was able to plan a trip for me and my family from start to finish using almost exclusively this book and it's online resources. Great tips for driving, food, times of day to see certain sites, and includes a pull out map of Jerusalem for site seeing. We navigated the country like pros.

4.0 out of 5 stars ... Lonely Planet Israel and the Palestinian Territories provides a nice overview of things to do and places to see
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2016

The Lonely Planet Israel and the Palestinian Territories provides a nice overview of things to do and places to see. It hits the highlights but does not seem as detailed to go beyond the main sights as I had hoped. Nonetheless, Lonely Planet does a good job of offering the main sights and is good for the casual and short-term visitor.

I'm not usually a fan of tour books in general even though I know they give lots of information. But I am really enjoying this one. Lots of pictures and much easier to get through than most of the tour books I've read. So looking forward to our trip next year to this region.

This guide got me around most of Israel just fine. I personally wish it had more detail on the nightlife in Tel-Aviv. It has good tips to help navigate the countrys' fraught political climate.

Great guide. Except it was updated in June 2015, and failed to mention mineral beach Dead Sea is closed due to sink holes! Besides this, which lead me to Ein Gedi (awesome) and eventually Kalia beach, great guide and I will use this company again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not For Everybody!
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2015
Verified Purchase
This book is very anti-Israel as the Jewish State. Christian & Palestinian tourist sites are raved about, not true with places of importance to Jewish people. If this does not concern you, then buy this book; it does give some fairly decent information for antisemites. It is also lacking in maps. If you plan on driving, get yourself a separate map. I found myself gritting my teeth as I read this biased guide!

3.0 out of 5 stars narrative color to its guides and I like most of them
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2017
Verified Purchase
Lonely Planet is generally admirable for adding hip, narrative color to its guides and I like most of them. This guide, however, tries but fails to negotiate a balanced, factual account of the IsraelI Palestinian problem, and its legacy of anti-Israel bias still peeks through. Wading into intractable disputes is a quixotic task for a travel guide in the best of circumstances, so take the lapses for what they're worth. For instance, its account of the wars between Israel and Gaza soft-pedals the rockets launched by Gazans into civilian areas and their purpose [to launch invasions and kill civilians] of the tunnels Gazans dug into Israel.
