Wonderful experience walking through Jaffa and the Carmel Market. The historical insight was wonderful and the food in the Carmel Market was plentiful
Thank you! We are glad to have given you such a wonderful experience discovering the incredible Carmel Market!
Annette was an excellent guide. The tour was fun. We enjoyed learning the history of Jaffa and Neve tzedek was very interesting.
I did the walking tour today and really enjoyed the old town. I noticed on Tripadvisor and Viator the description for this tour is incorrect, this is definitely a walking tour of old town Jaffa and it was really excellent and a nice small group too. I had to leave halfway through to get my flight but I wish I could have done the whole tour. The guide was really helpful and knowledgeable, there was even time to look inside St Peter's Church and overall the pace was really nice. We passed other walking groups which were in my opinion too big in size, this was a great size group and I'd definitely recommend Tourist Israel. Thanks for the great tour!
Thank you for your positive feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed the Jaffa walking tour and appreciated the small group size, knowledgeable guide, and comfortable pace. We're glad you had a great experience and appreciate your recommendation. Safe travels, we hope to welcome you back soon!
The tour was a great overview of Jaffa and a really beautiful walk through small walkways and along the sea. I really enjoyed it. It was a perfect size group as well.
Interesting tour of Jaffa. But the Neve Tzedek portion of the tour to which we looked forward (and its inclusion in the title was our primary reason for signing up for this tour as we’d been to Jaffa previously) was missing. This tour needs a new title & description.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any disappointment and will review the tour title and description for accuracy. We value your input and hope to exceed your expectations in the future. Thank you for choosing our tour.
Great guide. Interesting tour of Jaffa. We did the 2-3 hr tour. Some continued on after lunch to the surrounding areas. Again, one of my favorite and educated guides and I’ve traveled some.
Yael was a super guide. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic in her presentation. The Neve Tzedek was lovely. Especially enjoyed the graffiti tour and learning about the artist. I used Tourist Israel for numerous tours or transport , VIP at airport and knew I could trust their professionalism
What a wonderful morning with our guide, Merona Levinstein! She brought the history of Jaffa alive! This was a great introduction to the history of the area!
We were staying in Tel Aviv for a short 4 night city break, Keen to enjoy the nightlife and learn about its unique history we booked the half day tour starting in Jaffa. Sivan the guide albeit quiet in manner provided an engaging fascinating narrative as we walked patiently through the streets. For us we don't want a loud big personality shouting their way through a tour. I thought for us Sivan was perfect. Our only regret was having to leave half way through. We stayed close to Sivan throughout and had the opportunity to ask the odd question which he took the time to answer. He does ask the group the odd question to get people involved. Obviously the more you show interest and take part the more you will get from the tour.
Guide is very knowledgeable and helpful. Unfortunately it was an extremely busy day at Carmel Market. Hard to see, to enjoy or to try anything.
Shalom Diana, We are glad to hear you had a good Tel Aviv Walikng Tour with us, Indeed, the Carmel Market has more energy on Friday before Shabbat starts, that’s part of the magic for some of our travelers, we appreciate you took the time to share your experience with us, Have a nice day!
