Ramat Gan Safari

This safari/zoo is home to the largest collection of wildlife in the Middle East. The safari is spread over 250 acres and divided into two sections. First visitors drive through a “safari” where animals roam freely. Visitors without their own car can take the Safari bus through this section of the site. The next section of the site is a zoo. 83 species of mammals, 23 species of reptiles and 92 species of birds are housed in enclosures among lush gardens. The Safari Ramat Gan has eateries, cafes and if you don’t fancy walking around you can rent a golf cart. For a really exciting experience join one of the nighttime tours of the safari!

Israeli Children’s Museum

This award winning museum presents a variety of special programs for different age groups. Unlike conventional museums you must book tickets in advance for one of the programs at the Israeli Children’s Museum. Among the programs there is “Dialogue in the Dark”  where your eyes are covered and you are led by a visually impaired guide and “Invitation to Silence” where deaf guides lead visitors around inter-active exhibits. Other programs focus on age, time, the environment and music. Programs are age specific starting with programs for visitors as young as 4yrs old. This is a dynamic, unique, interactive experience.

Design Museum Holon

 

This museum is focused on design and contemporary culture. The museum building itself has a unique and dynamic design created by architect Ron Arad. In addition to temporary exhibitions the museum presents permanent exhibitions in historical design; contemporary design in Israel and around the world plus works by graduating students from design academies in Israel.

Ariel Sharon Park 

 

This park is part of an environmental rehabilitation project and surrounds a former waste dump southeast of Tel Aviv. The accumulation of waste had created a flat topped “mountain” which is now part of the park. At the foot of the mountain are recycling plants which have a visitor center. The surrounding 2,000 acres make up this beautiful park (three times the size of Central Park). The park has walk and cycle paths, ponds, an aquatic water plant garden, amphitheatre, open lawns and there are plans for many facilities in the park which will be completed in 2020.

Apollonia National Park

This archaeological park has a dramatic location on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean near Herzliya. The park encompasses the excavated remains of ancient Greek and Roman cities as well as structures from other eras. There is a medieval city wall, moat and the remains of a Crusader castle, Byzantine glass furnace and 15th century mosque. You can walk among the remains and enjoy the stunning sea views as well as views up and down the coast.
