The Negev Desert is a majestic beauty that combines rock formations, cliffs, jagged hills, and red sand with a magical array of historical ruins, fascinating wildlife, ecotourism in the Arava Valley, Yotvata Chocolate Trail, and unique desert communities from flourishing kibbutzim to the nomadic Bedouin. Add to this ultra Westernized amenities, adventures, and experiences, and you have found yourself a true mirage so perfect it’s almost unreal.
The Negev covers over half the land of Israel. It consists of six areas: The Blooming Desert, Heritage and Cultures, the Dead Sea Land, Land of Craters and Incense Routes, Arava Valley, and Eilat and the Red Sea. Greener by the year, Israeli initiatives in the Negev have reversed desertification.
At the Negev, you can see animals mentioned in the Bible as well as endangered desert species – from ibex along the Mitzpe Ramon cliff in Sde Boker, to many types of birds. In fact, the north-western part of the Negev is one of the most unique birding zones with a high concentration of under-threat species such as Eastern Imperial Eagle, Saker Falcon, Pallid Harrier and Sociable Plovers, plus Long lagged Buzzard, Merlin, Peregrine, Lanner and Barbary in winter.
From yoga and meditation retreats to countless glamping and B&B options, the Negev has everything you need to relax amidst the most intriguing of surroundings
From the Incense Route covering a long trail of incense and spice roads, to the mighty and fabled Masada (in Hebrew: the “fortress”), to Tel Be’er Sheva believed to be the remains of the 10th century BC biblical town Beer Sheva, there’s lots of ancient history to explore in the Negev.
At the sun sets, the Negev sky fills with millions of bright stars. Imagine utmost tranquility around you and a splendid radiance above – it’s an experience that moves your soul. Spend the night in a Bedouin tent, a desert lodge, or a hotel – the possibilities are endless.
Negev is more than a place—it’s an experience that stays with you forever. Let Tevel Travel Group take you on a journey that connects you to the heart of this extraordinary city.
