A visit to Tel Aviv will give you an insight into the cultural renaissance that Israel is currently experiencing.

The city attracts people from all over the world with its vibrant atmosphere and amazing bars, cafés and restaurants. Not to mention that the beaches are beautiful too! Just a 10-minute drive away from the buzz of central Tel Aviv is Jaffa. A historic, cosmopolitan port city packed with hidden surprises and sights.

Whether you’re traveling here for business or pleasure, we have some great suggestions for things to see and do in Tel Aviv — as well as some insider tips on where to eat, drink, shop and stay while you’re here.

Food, glorious food!
Tel Aviv has been called the “Foodie capital of the Middle East,” and for good reason. Israel has long been an oasis of culinary delight, a place where East and West meet and mingle in the most tantalizing and surprising ways.

From traditional Jewish dishes such as falafel and hummus to modern Mediterranean fusion foods like shakshuka (eggs poached in a spicy tomato sauce) to inventive fusion fare like Israeli sushi (really!), there is something for everyone. And if you’re looking for something more exotic, Tel Aviv has tons of international restaurants, serving everything from Ethiopian and Moroccan to Indian and Chinese food.

The city’s diverse population has contributed to the creative cuisine of the city. In fact, UNESCO even declared Israeli cuisine as one of the world’s most significant cultural innovations of the past 100 years. And the good news is that Israeli cuisine is incredibly affordable, with most dishes ranging between $10-$30 USD per person. Even in the most fancy restaurants, you can expect to pay no more than $70-$100 USD per person.

Go for a stroll along the beach
Tel Aviv’s beaches have long been a source of relaxation and inspiration for locals and travelers alike. In fact, the city has been called the “Miami Beach of the Middle East” due to its tropical weather and sandy beaches. The city boasts three main beaches: Hayarkon Beach, Charles Clore Beach and the Hilton Beach. Each beach has its own distinct personality and charm.

Hayarkon Beach is often considered to be the “quietest” of the three beaches, with the Charles Clore Beach being a bit more family-friendly and Hilton Beach being more of a party beach. Another beach worth visiting is Jaffa Beach. Definitely worth checking out, as it has been called “the most beautiful beach in Israel,” Jaffa Beach is a great place to relax and get away from the bustling city.

Alternatively, you can also visit the beaches at nearby Tel Baruch, Ramat Hasharon or Bat Yam, which are just a short drive away.

Shop ‘til you drop at Dizengoff Center
One of the most famous shopping streets in Tel Aviv is Dizengoff Center. This pedestrian street is a great place to shop, dine and people-watch.
