I'm making an itinerary for my trip after Birthright and am trying to make sure I do not miss anything important!
Sites/places/kibbutzim that I'm visiting on birthright:
Jerusalem (Old City, Machane Yehuda, etc)
Yad Vashem and Har Herzl
Kfar Saba
Ein Ovdat
Sde Boker
Arad
Masada and the Dead Sea
Mt Bental
Kfar Blum
Tzfat
Jaffa
Beit Ha'atzmaut
I'm staying for an additional 20 days after Birthright ends and will be staying in Tel Aviv for a week, then Jerusalem for the duration of my trip.
Whilst in Tel Aviv I planned one day to venture outside of the city and have rented a car. I plan on going to Beit She'arim National Park in Kiryat Tiv'on to visit Judah haNasi's tomb and then to Tiberias to visit Maimonides memorial site.
I'm planning on doing a tour through my hostel in Jerusalem that will take me to Hebron to visit the Cave of Machpelah.
If anyone has an ideas of places to see, daven at, or eat, please let me know!
I just wanted to say that I'm so jealous that you're able to stay an additional 2 weeks! I had always planned on extending my Birthright trip at least a week, but my office is so understaffed (and I'm the only one who does what I do) that it was like pulling teeth just to get the two weeks off. I might be able to extend a day or two if I'm willing to pony up for a flight from NYC to Boston on the return trip rather than taking a bus.
Luckily, I was able to get on an urban focused trip so I'll waste less time hiking (other than Masada of course) and more time with people and in the cities, which is the whole reason I travel in general.

In Tel Aviv area, Beit Hatfutsot (the Diaspora Museum) located at the Tel Aviv University campus in the suburb of Ramat Aviv is a must.
I plan on hitting a bunch of the museums in Tel Aviv.
