Israel is not the coldest place on earth, so on this trip you will need the following: tons of sunblock, WATER, hats, sunglasses, one of those cool water bottles with a mister, a camelbak, and light-colored clothes. There is tons of walking, so make sure to bring very comfortable shoes, and not vans. Last but certainly not least, bring a camera because there are so many beautiful sights and attractions that you will want to remember . Another helpful word of advice is to download a messaging app on your mobile device, because Israel will charge
