Palestinia Territories: Updates & Travel

Travel in Palestine?

  • Palestine consists of two territories: the Gaza Strip and West Bank. Palestine has not been recognized by all United Nations member states.
  • Despite regular unrest between Israel and Palestine, Palestine became an increasingly popular destination for tourists and visitors in past recent years.
  • Backpacking and traveling in Palestine is not easy, requiring careful planning and awareness of the political situation and security issues. The country, especially cities like Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Hebron and Nablus, has a rich history and culture. And you'll find a mix of Christian, Muslim and Jewish heritages. The people are incredibly friendly and hospitable, one of the best things about the Arab world. 
  • Just be aware that you can't always move freely. Traveling around means checkpoints and restrictions, mostly by Israeli authorities. There are also tensions and sometimes violent outbursts. So follow the travel advice. 
  • Cities and culture spotting: Trip to Mar Saba Monastery, Yassar Arafat Museum (Ramallah) Hisham's Palace (Jericho), Nativity Church in Bethlehem, Al-Asqa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, Hebron's Old City, the souks of Nablus, the delicious food, the long-distance hike Masar Ibrahim Al-Khalil, the Wadi Qelt gorge, float on the Dead Sea, attend a Palestinian folk dance (Dabke), visit one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world Jericho and the Qumran caves, attend the olive harvest festival in the fall and much more. 
  • Animals and nature spotting: mountain gazelle, caracal, Dorcas gazelle, striped hyena, Indian wolf etc. 
  • Food spotting: kanafeh (dessert of spun dough with cheese and sugar syrup), mansaf (lamb with rice and yogurt), falafel, hummus, maqluba (rice with vegetables and meat). 
  • Details: Israel and Palestine are regularly (politically) unsettled. Tip: check the current situation before planning your trip.

Activities abroad: home page

From language courses to gap year abroad, from work experience to volunteering abroad, from paid work to internship abroad, from mountaineering to diving and from backpacking to travel around the world

    What social activities can you do abroad?

    • Opportunities are found in the areas of helping, learning or studying. You can get involved to volunteer in a social project at a school in Africa, Asia or Latin America. You can get involved in nature, in a project with animals or cleaning the sea or beaches. Those who want to learn more can choose for example a language course in Latin America, Spain or South Africa.

    What work related activities can you do abroad?

    • If you want to gain work experience, and/or also earn money, go and work abroad. You can combine backpacking in Australia with temporary work. You can work on campsites in Europe or bush camps in Africa. You can pretty much go all over the world to work in the hospitality industry, hotels and hostels, in the healthcare sector or for example at a diving school.

    What sports activities to do abroad?

    • Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
    • Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
