OP - In Jerusalem, the Western Wall and Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Via Dolorosa are a must see. While in the old city; I would go to eat at Lina in the Arab Quarter. I think it has the best hummus anywhere in the world. Will write more later

I have lots of suggestions - some mentioned here and some others which are a bit more off the beaten path.
North:
Jeep Tours in the Golan
Dinner at Docks in Tiberias
Virtual Reality tour in Caesaria
Baha'i Shrine/gardens in Haifa
Coca-Cola experience in B'nei Brak
Galleries and shopping in Tsfat

Tel Aviv:
Neve Zedek shopping area
Taglit/Birthright Innovation Center (inside the Israeli stock exchange)
Independence Hall
Tayelet/Beach

Jerusalem:
Old City Kotel Tunnel Tour
Hezekiah's Tunnel Tour (this is an underground water tunnel)
Shopping in Mamila Mall, Ben-Yehuda and Yoel Solomon streets
King David Hotel (if only for architecture and celebrity factor)
Mahane Yehuda (Shuk) - you MUST get rugelah at Marzipan while there

Obviously I have lots of opinions/ideas, feel free to PM me of you have questions. I also have some great tour guide suggestions.
