Advice on Getting from Ben Gurion Aiport to TLV downtown

Hello All,

We've received so much great info from this site, so I wanted to ask another question ..

We are taking our first trip to Israel next March, arriving at Ben Gurion airport around 9pm on a Sunday night. Our hotel is located near Dizengoff Street area in TLV.

Would a taxi be the easiest option to get to our hotel after a long flight? If so, where would we locate the official taxis (I know that in some cities it's easy to get fooled into taking unlicensed cabs when leaving the terminal).
Do cabs there take cash only or are Visa credit card accepted? Is Uber an option there?

Also, we would be arriving without local currency. I would imagine the airport money changers would not be too good... Any suggestions on where to get cash there or make ATM withdrawals ?


Thanks very much for any tips and advice!
