From Tel Aviv or the Ben Gurion Airport:

3. Continue straight for about 3 kilometers to the "Nachshon / Newe Shalom" exit.
   Follow the exit road, then turn left and follow signs to "Newe Shalom"(about 4 kilometers).

From Jerusalem:

From the exit road turn left in direction of Beer Sheba, and then proceed as described in point 3 above.

Reaching the Village by Taxi

Naturally it is possible to take a taxi from anywhere in the country (towns within 15-20 minutes of the village are Ramla, Modiin and Beit Shemesh). If the driver is not familiar with Neve Shalom / Wahat al-Salam, you can explain to her/him that it is located between the Nachson and Latroun Junctions. Tip: It is usually cheaper to hail a taxi than to order one in advance.

Reaching the Village by Bus

You will first need to plan your journey to Ramla. The Kavim company operates a local bus No. 26 from Ramla Central Bus Station to "Neve Shalom" (which is the last stop) :
