Eilat is the southern pearl of Israel on the Red Sea coast and a convenient base for a variety of excursions through the desert and sea. The city combines a resort atmosphere with access to unique natural areas, making it an excellent starting point for day and multi-day itineraries.
The historic routes around Eilat help to experience the region’s multi-layered history: trade routes and ancient settlements have left traces in the landscape, and the proximity to the borders with Jordan and Egypt adds context. Acquaintance with these places through excursions reveals the role of Eilat as a port and transshipment point for centuries.
Natural excursions here amaze with diversity: from snorkeling and diving among the coral reefs of the Red Sea to hiking and jeep safari in the deserts. The outskirts of the city border such desert regions as the Judean Desert, the Negev and the Arava, where canyons, rock formations and unique panoramas of desert flora and fauna open.
The tour formats are adapted to different expectations and levels of preparation: individual and group programs, walking tours, car and jeep excursions in the desert, sea walks and snorkeling flights. A local guide not only guides along the route, but also shares live stories, local legends, and practical tips on safety and timing.
Excursions in Eilat are suitable for family holidays and for active travelers: you can combine beach relaxation with a rich program of nature and history. Seasonal features affect the availability of some routes, so planning and flexibility will help to get the most impressions.
