Thanks, I thought so, but the OP was asking for a non stop from NY to Europe , and Cyprus was recommended above.

Would like to plan a Europe trip for end of November, but don't want it to be just city-like locations (Ie London, Paris, Venice). I prefer trips to be a mix of cities and beautiful nature, but the countries I can think of will likely have bad weather that time of year (Switzerland, Ireland, Scotland etc.) Any ideas of somewhere beautiful that I can combine with London/Paris?

To where do you want to go? Australia, NZ, South Africa all have organized arranged  camping tours with tour guides.

Best bet is Eilat for the best weather.
Or you can try Barcelona, Crete, nice but weather isn't guaranteed for beach weather.

I live in Israel and did some research.

Your options international  for nice weather are Dubai, Seychelles, Africa, canary islands and India. None of those are good for a short weekend, as well as other issues.

Your other options are pretty much any European city, Rome, Venice, Paris, veinna, Switzerland, Budapest, prague etc. The problem is the weather is going to be colder then what you have in Israel....

Europe is not great for the winter weather wise...although all my English friends go to spain for winter break. I guess the weather there is decent

It exists.  Do you want to be part of a group or you only? What state? Frum guide? Kosher food? RV camping or tent camping?

Thanks, will check out Spain thread

Any suggestions for beautiful non-Europe destinations that are within around 10 hr flight from US east coast without zika, that will have decent weather in end Nov/beginning Dec?
