A package of discounts will now be available to young travellers exploring Jerusalem’s attractions, including reductions on accommodation, restaurants and tourist sites.

Targeted at millennials in their twenties and thirties, the Jerusalem Development Authority (JDA)’s package  aims to let visitors experience Israel’s capital for under £35 (40 Euros) a day.

The offer, which includes a free tour of the Old City, includes reduced rates at some of Jerusalem’s top attractions, with discounts on hotels, transport, historical sites, festivals, restaurants and bars.

City Break Millennials package is being partnered by two hostels and six hotels, all of which are in the centre of Jerusalem.

 Ilanit Melchior, Director of Tourism for the Jerusalem Development Authority told Jewish News: “We are delighted to launch our millennials discount package, which offers millennial travellers an opportunity to discover Jerusalem for under 40 Euros per day. A short hop from Europe, the discounts opens up Jerusalem to a whole new and important market and we are excited to welcome tourists in their 20s and 30s to our beautiful city, to experience fascinating historical attractions, rich culture and world class restaurants.”

Engaging

Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.

Celebrating

There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.

Pioneering

In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.

Campaigning

Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.

Easy access

In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.

Voice of our community to wider society

The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.

We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
