The Tel Aviv Central Bus Station, also known as the 'New Central Bus Station' is a major transportation hub in the city of Tel Aviv. It provides connections for travelers to get around Israel’s largest metropolitan area, and is a gateway for those arriving from other parts of the Middle East or around the world.
The bus station consists of two major parts – an indoor terminal and an outdoor area. The indoor terminal has 21 gates providing access to different buses on various routes. You can check various bus departures from this terminal, which range from local lines to international long-distance travels.
The outdoor area is filled with numerous terminals that are tailored towards providing services specialized in certain destinations or services like airport transport and public minivans called sheruts. There are also several cafes and kiosks throughout both the indoor and outdoor terminals if you need to take a break while running between buses.
Travelling through this bustling transportation hub requires some navigation skills as it is rather big with quite a few confusing pathways. But as soon as you find your way around, it becomes quite simple to use its services: Timetabling information can be obtained on site at customer service desks, or even better - through Moovit's app!
For those wanting something more dependable than taking random buses just randomly search Google Maps instead – which provide reliable door-to-door directions that include walking paths and sometimes provide up-to-date traffic information about distances covered between points.
