Israel's main transit options: bus (Egged, Dan), train (Israel Railways), light rail (Jerusalem, Tel Aviv coming), shared taxis (sherut), regular taxis (monit), and cars. The Rav-Kav card pays for everything. Buses don't run on Shabbat in most places.

Rav-Kav (רַב קַו), Israel's universal transit card. Load credit at machines or via app. Works on bus, train, light rail nationwide. Get one at any train station or central bus station with your Teudat Zehut.
