Synopsis

Culture Smart! Israel provides essential information on attitudes, beliefs and behaviour in Israel, ensuring that you arrive at your destination aware of basic manners, common courtesies, and sensitive issues. This concise guide will tell you what to expect, how to behave, and how to establish a rapport with your hosts.
