Tel Aviv is very rich in terms of transportation. Buses, trains and taxis are running all day to carry passengers to the airport. Car rental companies with offices in the city center meet special requests of passengers.
Taxis offer service all day. You can get to the airport in about 25 minutes by taxi. It is recommended to demand the receipt from the driver before getting off the taxi. In addition to standard taxis, you can travel from the early hours of the morning until the night with Sherut taxis. Sherut stops are usually located side by side with bus stations in different parts of the city.
Bus route 6, which you get on from the bus stops located in the city center, offers service until 10:00 pm. In Tel Aviv, which has a lot of traffic in the morning and evening hours, you may need to take the road a bit earlier by taking into account the departure time of your flight. Since the names of the stops in Tel Aviv are written in Hebrew, it is beneficial to get information about the route in advance by making search online.
Since trains are fast means of transportation, they are the commonly preferred options in Tel Aviv. However, because trains run every two hours, you should learn the departure times of trains in advance. Transportation to the airport by train which you will get on from the Tel Aviv Train Station lasts approximately 12 minutes.
In Tel Aviv, which is a crowded and complicated city, the fact that all of the signs are in Hebrew makes it difficult to drive for foreigners. For this reason, renting a car is a difficult option. Nevertheless, it is possible to get in contact with one of the car rental companies from the internet and rent a car very easily.
The international airport of Tel Aviv, which can compete with the world cities, is also quite dazzling. At the airport, which has three terminal buildings, everything is aforethought for the passengers.
Terminal 1, used for regional flights, is painted with the colors representing the three sacred mountains of Israel. Terminal 2 is only used as a cargo terminal.
Terminal 3, where international flights are made, has a small store called Buy&Bye. At the airport where smoking is prohibited, there are many restaurants that offer the flavors of the world cuisine, a post office and a large number of stores for passengers wanting to do some shopping. In addition, there are two synagogues for the Jews in the terminal.
At Francisco Bangoy Airport, taxis are extensively used by the passengers to go to the city center. Those who want to use the public transportation vehicles can prefer the sympathetic Jeepney minibuses, which are specific to the city with stops outside the airport. Car rental companies at the airport, which are open for 24 hours, help those who would like to go to the city with a private car.
Picking up passengers from the airport all day and helping them arrive at the city center comfortably, taxis are driven by educated and honest drivers. The drivers are not open to bargaining on the fare tariff, but they answer your question honestly when you ask them how much you are going to pay on average for the city center.
You can go to the city center more economically with the Jeepneys, which emerged as a result of the transformation of the old jeeps and the minibuses into public transportation vehicles in Davao. However, you have to come to the main road, which is so close to the airport that you can reach there in 5 minutes by walking, in order to take the Jeepneys.
If you would like to rent a car, you can head for the offices of Avis or Europcar at the airport. You can rent a car of any brand and model you wish from the car rental companies for a certain while, where documentation procedures are significantly practical. You should be careful not to exceed the time limit of delivery when you are renting the car for a long time. You may have to pay an extra amount to the companies, which are sensitive in this matter.
