Israeli tourists prefer close and friendly destinations, and Bulgaria is exactly like that, besides being very beautiful, said Israeli ambassador to Bulgaria Levi Sfari in Varna after his meeting with the city Mayor Blagomir Kotsev. Sfari stressed that Varna is very attractive for his compatriots as a tourist centre. He expects that with the signing of the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip, the number of people from his homeland holidaying in Bulgaria will increase, especially given that five or six airlines operate regular flights between Israel and Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, and in the summer - to Burgas. The Ambassador also commented that there is a long-lasting cooperation and exchange between the two countries in the sphere of education, economy, culture, in addition to tourism.
