Frequently asked questions
Which Israel parks pass is worth it for me?
Tick the parks on your itinerary above and the calculator works it out instantly. As a rule of thumb: 1–2 parks → pay at the gate; 3 parks → Blue card usually wins; 4–6 parks → Green card; 7+ parks → Orange card. City of David and the Masada cable car are NOT included in any pass.
Are these park admission prices accurate?
The per-park figures are approximate adult gate prices as of mid-2026. INPA revises admission fees periodically. Always verify at parks.org.il before purchasing. The calculator is a planning guide, not a quoted price.
Is City of David included in the parks pass?
No. The City of David is managed by the Ir David Foundation, not INPA, so it is not covered by any tourist card. A separate ticket is required.
Is the Masada cable car included?
No. The Masada cable car is privately operated and is excluded from all INPA passes. You can enter the archaeological site with the pass, but the cable car ride costs extra.
Where do I buy the pass?
Tourist cards (Blue/Green/Orange) are sold at the entrance to any INPA site — ask at the ticket booth on arrival. They are not widely available online, though this may change; check parks.org.il.
