I hope you are not planning on driving a vehicle into Jordan. Israeli rentals can not be taken to Jordan--nor can Jordanian rentals be taken to Israel.

BTW you may be flying into TLV, but in reality you are landing approx. 20-30 minutes outside the city and 30-40 minutes outside of Jerusalem. In other words, the airport is on the highway between the two cities.
Thanks so much, we're planning on hiring private cars and drivers for each leg of our trip. If you have any recommendations for cheap but reliable services or individual contacts, they'd be greatly appreciated - for both sides of the border!
