Agamon Hula versus Hula Nature Reserve – Which one is Better?

Agamon Hula and Hula Nature Reserve are located in Hula valley, with only several kilometers separating them. But they offer different experiences. Let’s compare them!

Note: I visited both places many times, and here you can find guides to both Agamon Hula and Hula Nature Reserve.

Which one should you visit?

Both places have advantages and disadvantages. And in this section, I will give you several rules of thumb to help you decide.

• Are you visiting during the migration season (usually March – April and October – November)? If the answer is no, then there will be few birds at Agamon Hula. Hence, no need to pay extra, and I would suggest Hula Nature Reserve.
• Are you visiting with babies? If you do, you will probably not be able to join the Safari wagon tours at Agamon Hula. You can rent big bicycles or golf carts, but the rent time is limited, and you can not get close to birds. Thus, in this case, I would also suggest Hula Nature Reserve.
• Are you on a tight budget? In this case, Hula Nature Reserve is a clear winner. Particularly if you are a Matmon member or have a combo ticket to National Parks And Nature Reserves.

It might look that I always recommend Hula Nature Reserve. But over the last fifteen years, I visited Hula Nature Reserve only twice. At the same time, I was at Agamon Hula around eight times. And the fact is that Agamon Hula leaves a stronger impression. But as it comes to Agamon, there are two important rules that you should keep:

1. Visit only during the migration season.
2. Join tours: the sunrise tour is my favorite, but regular Safari wagon tours are also a good option. If you rent bicycles or golf carts, besides having limited rent time, you will not be able to get really close to birds (and the tours enter restricted areas).
