I went to Israel for the first time more than 20 years ago. I suggest you go on organized tours by Hoffman or others. They charge a fortune for an English tour but it was well worth it and they have many tours that take you to most of the places you would want to see. You can go to kever rochel on your own if you want, with a local bus, but I wouldn’t go to Chevron unless on a tour with an armored bus. I think you could live without Tel Aviv, but do get to Sefas and Tiveria. If you do go to the Tel Aviv,, go to the Diaspora Museum, and don’t forget the Holocaust Museum in Y. By all means, just stroll around Geulah and Meah Shearim for a wonderful feel for the city. My favorite activity was going to the kosel, including the cave tours. Yes, there is kedusah all over Israel, but for me nothing compared with Yerushalayim. Have a wonderful experience.
