Important information about Jerusalem car hire

These conveniently placed facilities means that you can grab a Jerusalem car rental at any stage of your visit. And, with a range of available and affordable public parking facilities throughout the city, you can easily park your vehicle close to many of the must-see cultural sites—such as Jaffa Gate, a beautiful fortification that opens up to the Old City of Jerusalem, and the Israel Museum, Jerusalem. When you’re ready to explore areas outside city limits, then you can hop on one of the nearby major roadways that provide access to several other sites and cities throughout Israel, such as Highway 1.

Park your people carrier rental nearby to the Old City, choosing whichever of the main entrance gates you prefer, then get out and explore the walkable area at your leisure; this area is really best explored by foot, since it was designed long before the advent of cars. Then, when you’re ready for a day-trip, just hop on Highway 1 and zip up to Tel Aviv, which is northwest toward the ocean, or head to Hebron, to the south of Jerusalem. Both cities can be reached in under a couple of hours by car.

You’ll also want to pay special attention to speed limits when driving on the various types of expressays in the country; these are typically dictated by the type of road, but if you are unfamiliar with the area, you may not know when you’ve transitioned. It is also always best to check with the city’s department of motor vehicles to learn of any laws that may have changed recently.
