"January and February were an excellent start to the tourism year 2014, following on from the record-breaking numbers of incoming tourists in 2013," said Minister of Tourism Uzi Landau. "We are working intensively to improve the quality of the tourism product, to effectively market Israel around the world and to strengthen domestic tourism so that 2014 will also close as a record year for tourism."
