It's a bit pointless being in Israel over Saturday. You can't get around Jerusalem as their is no public transport. Where to stay, very hard to tell. Depends what you want to go and see. Saturday night at the Western Wall is a must!!

Sunset is pretty early in January, and I think taxis still run? Last time I went I was a child and we had our own minibus and foreign driver.

Me!
PS Although last time I was in Israel I was dragged through 2 airports at gunpoint, so you might want to avoid me at check-in!

Taxi from Ben Gurion on the Sabbath seems available and cheap enough at around £14 per person:

Qatar, Malaysia and Dubai in mine, that's fine though, it arrives at 0320 anyway, not like there's a rush to get anywhere.
Though, maybe I'll just get another passport through work, it's not that hard.
