The Israel Ministry of Tourism has launched a Virtual Tourist Office offering visitors a trove of information which they can access via email, Facebook and WhatsApp.

Visitors to Israel can use the service to find out everything they need to know, from accommodation and transportation to events and festivals, prior to their trip and during their stay.

With cities like Tel Aviv offering free WI-FI spots across the city and the inclusion of WhatsApp (accessed on 972-50-6214249) visitors will be able to easily digest information on the move.

The service currently supports English with plans to add French, Spanish and Russian languages, as well as new digital channels such as chat, video chat and a self-service website. 

This extensive variety of channels will help visitors plan their holiday in Israel in a quick and convenient way.
