Israeli Green Tourism Sites Win International Recognition

Great news for eco-conscious travelers! Two Israeli destinations have just made history by receiving the first-ever Tourism Minister Award for promoting “green initiatives” in Israel.

Kibbutz Lotan in the Southern Arava Desert and Ram Farm in the Galilee have earned this prestigious recognition and will represent Israel at ITB Berlin – the world’s largest travel trade show. These sustainable tourism pioneers caught the attention of Tourism Minister Katz, who praised them for “demonstrating excellent execution capabilities for a vision that combines quality tourism with preserving natural resources.”

If you’re planning a trip to Israel and care about sustainable travel, these destinations are worth adding to your itinerary. Kibbutz Lotan offers unique desert experiences while maintaining environmental responsibility, and Ram Farm in the beautiful Galilee region provides eco-friendly accommodations and activities.

The Tourism Ministry’s Director General Itzhakov emphasized their commitment to “continue supporting sustainable tourism and initiatives that promote it,” signaling that Israel is serious about green travel options for international visitors.
