Those who have not yet booked their summer vacation do not have to give up on finding good deals. Despite rising demand and the fact that the summer holiday season is already in full swing, relatively affordable flights and vacation packages are still available over the next two weeks – especially for travelers who are flexible with their departure dates.
Among the standout offers are flights to Rhodes for under $200, vacation packages to Limassol for less than $450 per person, a getaway to Budapest for under $500, and even affordable vacation options within Israel.
According to Tamar Gerzon, CEO of Gulliver, “Even though we are in the middle of the summer travel season, there are still worthwhile opportunities for travelers who are flexible with their departure dates. Over the coming weeks, it is still possible to enjoy quality vacations in Israel and abroad at attractive prices, before peak summer demand continues pushing prices higher.”
Industry representatives also note that several destinations are currently offering prices that are unusual for the height of the summer season. Yoni Waxman, Deputy Chairman of Ophir Tours, said: “We recognize the public’s desire to enjoy a summer vacation during peak season without paying premium prices. Over the next two weeks, there is an opportunity for couples and families to take a vacation while prices remain relatively low compared to the seasonal peak.”

Affordable holiday packages are also available despite the peak travel season:
Additional offers include a family vacation in Larnaca at the Sandy Beach Hotel with breakfast, flights and checked baggage from $316 per person, as well as a stay at Budapest’s Mercure City Center from $458 per person.
For those who prefer to stay closer to home, there are also reasonably priced vacation options within Israel, particularly for travelers seeking a short or last-minute getaway. Industry experts note that availability changes quickly, so travelers who are flexible regarding departure dates, trip duration, or destination may find significant price differences.
It is important to remember that these are dynamic prices that change according to flight and hotel availability. Travelers with some flexibility are advised to compare different departure dates and travel options, as shifting a trip by just a day or two can significantly reduce the overall cost of their vacation.
