Airport Transportation in Tel Aviv

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Ben Gurion International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Airport transportation in Tel Aviv takes you from Ben Gurion International Airport to hotels and apartments in Tel Aviv and Jaffa along the coast, and further to Herzliya, Jerusalem, Haifa and the Galilee, or the Dead Sea.

Tel Aviv Airport Transfers

Our Tel Aviv airport transfers start in the public arrivals hall on the ground floor of Terminal 3, where every international passenger comes out after customs and your driver waits with a name sign. If you arrive on a domestic flight from Eilat, your driver meets you at the Terminal 1 exit instead, and we track your flight so the pickup follows your real landing time.

Choose a vehicle sized for your party, from a sedan to a van for a family or group, and each Tel Aviv airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, apartment or family home. Going on to Jerusalem, Haifa, the Galilee or the Dead Sea? Enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.

Tel Aviv Airport Shuttle

Our Tel Aviv airport shuttle is a private van for your party only: it leaves as soon as you have your bags and goes straight to your address, with no stops for other passengers. There is room for suitcases and strollers, so it suits families, tour groups and friends traveling together to Tel Aviv, Jerusalem or the north.

Landing at Tel Aviv Airport

Ben Gurion International Airport (TLV) is Israel's main international airport, on the northern edge of Lod, southeast of Tel Aviv. All international flights arrive at Terminal 3, the main terminal with concourses B to E. Terminal 1 handles domestic flights from Eilat's Ramon Airport and, since July 2026, some international departures.

At Terminal 3 you pass passport control first, then collect your bags in the baggage hall and go through customs into the arrivals hall on the ground floor, where people meeting passengers wait. A free shuttle bus links Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 around the clock.

Israel uses Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) and switches to daylight saving time (UTC+3) in summer.

Ben Gurion Airport is about 20 km southeast of Tel Aviv, on the northern edge of Lod next to Highway 1. Jerusalem is about 45 km to the southeast.

Is Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv?

No. Although it is known as Tel Aviv's airport, Ben Gurion sits outside the city, on the northern outskirts of Lod. It serves Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and the rest of the country.

Can you take me to a hotel in Tel Aviv or Jaffa?

Yes. We drive you door to door to hotels, apartments and homes anywhere in Tel Aviv and Jaffa. Give us the full address when you book.

Can you take me to Herzliya?

Yes. Herzliya is on the coast just north of Tel Aviv. Enter your hotel or apartment address in Herzliya when you book.

Jerusalem lies southeast of the airport along Highway 1. Enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.

Can you take me to Haifa or the Galilee?

Haifa and the Galilee are in the north of the country, a longer trip from the airport. Enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.

Can you take me to the Dead Sea?

Do I need an ETA-IL to fly to Israel?

Yes, if you hold a passport from a visa-exempt country. Since January 1, 2025, those travelers need an approved ETA-IL electronic travel authorization before departing for Israel, requested only on the official gov.il website.

What if I land on Shabbat?

Many trains and intercity buses stop from Friday afternoon or evening until Saturday evening and on Jewish holidays. A pre-booked private transfer is arranged for your flight time, which helps when public transport is limited.

What happens if my flight to Tel Aviv is delayed?

We track the arrival of the flight on your reservation, so your driver adjusts to a delay. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or your flight is canceled, update it in Manage your booking so we can move your pickup.

Can I book a ride back to Ben Gurion Airport?

Yes. Book a return from your hotel or apartment and give us your flight time and departure terminal, since some airlines now depart from Terminal 1 as well as Terminal 3.
