Keep a low profile and avoid staying in places identified as "Israeli concentrations", such as restaurants, hotels and entertainment at tourist sites that attract Israeli audiences.
Special suspicion should be shown and attractive offers and business or tourist opportunities that may be used to harm Israeli tourists should be avoided, with an emphasis on offers posted on social networks.
When it comes to transportation, be sure to choose the means of transportation, with an emphasis on taxis, and beware of customs and vehicles that offer you shuttle services at random.
Avoid any advertising and updating about your travel plan and your location on social networks, in order to make it difficult for the opponent to collect the information from these networks.
We recommend that you wait with these updates after returning to Israel.
Vigilance must be observed at the hotel during your stay.
In addition, be sure to lock the room door at all times and avoid opening it to unidentified persons who may present themselves in different ways.
While staying in the lobby and public areas of the hotel, pay attention to unusual activities or people.
