We’ve gathered a few of our favorite spots — both in the city and beyond — in case you’re looking for a little adventure between celebrations.
Dead Sea
Float effortlessly in the world’s lowest point, surrounded by dramatic desert landscapes and healing mineral waters – a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Jerusalem
Step into history in the sacred heart of the world – ancient alleys, vibrant markets, and powerful spiritual landmarks like the Western Wall and Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
Bahá’í Gardens, Haifa
Discover a breathtaking garden paradise cascading down Mount Carmel – perfect for stunning views, peaceful walks, and a glimpse into a global spiritual tradition.
Sea Of Galilee
Relax along the shores of Israel’s magical freshwater lake – swim, sail, or explore ancient biblical sites where history and beauty meet.
The Desert
Feel the freedom of endless landscapes – hike majestic craters, stargaze under clear skies, and experience the soul-stirring silence of the Negev.
Old Jaffa
A destination in itself, the charming district of Old Jaffa boasts antiquities and original structures spanning the Byzantine, Crusader and Ottoman-eras. You can tour the winding alleys boasting artisanal shops, art galleries and craft boutiques, or unwind with a walk thru Kedem Square — home to St Peter’s Church — or view the glistening Tel Aviv coastline while perched at HaPisga Garden or Kedem Square.
Neva Tzedek
Artsy Neve Tzedek has avant-garde design stores, fashion boutiques and handicraft shops, as well as a weekly farmers’ market in HaTachana, a restored railway station. Trendy European restaurants sit alongside stylish bistros, and many of the area’s al fresco cafes turn into live jazz bars and cocktail lounges at night.
Carmel Market
Specializing in fresh produce and clothes, Carmel Market is Tel Aviv’s largest and busiest market. With dozens of stalls selling fresh meat, fish, fruit and vegetables and the likes, you can take in all the sights, sounds and smells the Carmel Market has to offer while hunting for the cheapest bargains. Carmel Market also has a lively restaurant scene with some of the best local cuisine Tel Aviv has to offer.
Sarona Market
Sarona Compound, a 140-year-old former Templar colony, is the first culinary center of its kind in Israel. An 8,700-square-metre market houses dozens of specialty food shops from all around the world. Inside the market, you’ll find everything imaginable from Dutch cheese to waffle towers and even Asian buns. Just outside the indoor market, dozens of clothing, book and shoe stores line its paths, interspersed with lily ponds and grassy areas to relax.
Tel Aviv Museum Of Art
One of Israel’s leading cultural institutions, the museum's various departments hold a comprehensive collection of local and international artists. In addition to its extensive program of permanent and changing exhibitions, the museum offers a vibrant selection of concerts, lectures, guided tours, workshops, and more. The building’s exterior, an extended “folding” surface, is a dynamic ornament made of 430 polished cement panels, and worth a visit on its own.
Fine Dining
Rated by Ben Salomon as the greatest kebab and Pita in all of Israel. Must try! The unpretentious hole-in-the-wall venue is famous for serving some of the best pita bread street food in Israel. Jasmino serves simple, yet sensational, charcoal grilled options in grab-and-go pitas.
Address: Allenby St 99 Tel Aviv
Born as an underground radio station, Teder has set down roots in the young and hip scene in Tel Aviv. Open every night of the week, Teder is one of the top venues for events in the city, hosting cosy concerts or DJ sets almost nightly, coupled with Eyal Shani’s legendary pizzas.
Address: Derech Jaffa 9 Tel Aviv
A cool, trendy, artsy and vibrant restaurant and bar, located in an old building close to the Carmel Market. Not super easy to find but well worth the search, as this is one of the top venues in the city and definitely one of the top Tel Aviv rooftop bars. The setting at Prince is funky, chic and vibrant, with both an indoor part and a lovely rooftop terrace.
Address: Nachalat Binyamin 18
