Transport to Caesarea and Tiberias
Posted: Wed June 24, 2009 03:21 AM UTC

I have two male friends who will be travelling in Israel in the first week in October. I have been able to find details of public transport from Tel Aviv to both Tiberias and Caesarea, but would be grateful for any advice that anyone can give about the safest and most efficient ways of getting to both of these places from Tel Aviv.

Also need to know the best ways, using public transport, to get to Jerusalem from either Tiberias or Caesarea.

Many thanks for your help.

There should be connection from Tiberias to Jerusalem but not direct from Caesarea, so the easiest should be via Tel-Aviv. Israel is very small, it is easy and cheap to use the buses there.
Egged bus company site can give you good idea of connections, schedule and cost. http://www.egged.co.il/Eng/
Alternative there are also taxi service lines (mini buses) between the big cities.

The Egged bus company is the best. They go everywhere, are reliable and safe.

I am staying near Tiberias and hate driving in Jerusalem. Take the 962 or 963 from Jerusalem. My Hebrew is pretty bad and I got a printed schedule from the information wicket at the bus station.
