Urban Walking & Food Tour in Tel Aviv

Stroll the famous Rothschild Boulevard from Habima to Ahuzat Bayit, the neighborhood that was renamed Tel Aviv in 1910. While walking you learn about the problems of the founding families, their success in building a modern Hebrew city and enjoy the beautifully restored Bauhaus architecture. Next we will visit gentrified Neve Tzedek. From a slum that was about to be erased, it became home to over a dozen billionaires. This charming, chic, neighborhood from the 19th century is now filled with boutiques, cafe’s, restaurants and elegant fashion and jewelry stores. For the tasting part (not on Friday and Saturday) we continue to another old neighborhood, built in 1904 for poor immigrants from Yemen. Their market grew into the largest one of Tel Aviv. This Carmel Market also survived the city's obliteration plans and is thriving now. In addition to the fruits and vegetables stalls and little Yemenite restaurants it now has many bars, eateries and chef-owned food spots.

Rothschild Boulevard, Hen Boulevard, Dizengoff Street, and Ben-Zion Boulevard al come together on this square, which is home to the national theatre of Israel, one of the first Hebrew language theatres.

Tel Aviv's first boulevard, the most famous street in Israel, is named after a member of one of the wealthiest families in world history. Many of the historic buildings are built in the Bauhaus or International style, forming part of the White City of Tel Aviv. We will take a few short detours from Rothschild but return on it until we reach Ahuzat Bayit, the first neighborhood of Tel Aviv.

"L'Affaire", as it is known in French, has come to symbolize modern injustice and is one of the most notable examples of a complex miscarriage of justice and antisemitism. It had a great impact on Theodore Herzl, who is more or less responsible that you can walk around in Tel Aviv and a Jewish State..

The first, tiny, Jewish neighborhood outside the walls of Jaffa in the 19th century, followed by many other tiny ones, each for a different social and ethnic Jewish group.

Nowadays, avant-garde design stores, fashion boutiques, handicraft shops and a handful of good restaurants add to the attractiveness of this low rise gentrified neighborhood
