Passover is the time of the year when Israelis like to vacation in hotels in Israel and around the world. This is an ideal timing to go on a couple or family vacation, and take advantage of several days off except for "belly" or a shopping and nature trip abroad.
It is known that those who want good prices for a vacation in Israel or abroad - it is better to book early.
Indeed, prices are expected to rise by at least 15-20 percent as we approach Passover.
"Israel Today" has found for you the most worthwhile week for vacationing "before Passover", and the most affordable prices, by 50 to 70 percent.
To put things in order for you, we checked both prominent destinations abroad and a number of comparable hotels in Israel. "Although we are at the beginning of January, we are witnessing a lot of demand in the reservation centers for both the Passover holiday and the week leading up to it," says Assaf Ben Dov, VP of Africa Israel Hotels.

When the school holidays start
The Ben Dov hotel group owns the brands Vert, Crowne Plaza, Indigo, Gilgal and more.
"Many families and couples vacation before the holiday at attractive prices that can reach up to 30-40 percent less than the following week. We are witnessing the demand in cities such as Eilat, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and the Dead Sea, which are increasing as we get closer to the holiday."
"The pre-Passover week is the 'golden week,'" shares Nir Mazor, VP of "Kishari Avitava". "The Passover vacation in educational institutions begins, and this allows families to book a vacation for an amount that reaches half the amount during the Passover week and even more.
This is a significant savings that can reach thousands of shekels for each order." "We are also starting to see the beginning of orders for the summer vacation," adds Mazor. "Which can be a huge saving."
