Before you go: Tel Aviv tips

Transportation

  • Use a Rav-Kav card: Load a Rav-Kav card or use a transit app to pay for buses and the light rail.
  • Rent a bike or scooter: Tel-O-Fun and app-based scooters make it easy to get around the flat city.
  • Plan for Shabbat: Most public transport stops from Friday evening to Saturday evening; use taxis or walk.

Security

  • Follow local guidance: Learn where the nearest shelter is and follow official safety instructions if alerts sound.
  • Watch bikes and scooters: Be alert on sidewalks and bike paths, as fast scooters are common.
  • Keep belongings safe at the beach: Do not leave phones and wallets unattended on the sand.

Saving

  • Eat sabich and falafel: Street food is filling and cheaper than sit-down meals.
  • Enjoy free beaches: The long city beach is free and great for sunsets.
  • Shop at Carmel Market: Buy fresh produce and snacks at the market for a budget meal.

Weather/Clothing

  • Pack for hot summers: Summers are hot and humid, so bring light clothes and sunscreen.
  • Bring a jacket in winter: Winters are mild but rainy at times, so pack a light jacket.
  • Dress casually: Tel Aviv style is relaxed, but bring modest clothes for religious sites elsewhere.

Cultural

  • Respect Shabbat: Many businesses close on Friday evening and Saturday, though Tel Aviv stays lively.
  • Try hummus culture: Locals take hummus seriously; try it at a dedicated hummusiya.
  • Be direct: Israelis are known for direct communication; it is not meant as rudeness.

Local Hacks

  • Walk the promenade to Jaffa: Stroll along the beach promenade to Old Jaffa for sunset.
  • Explore Neve Tzedek: This charming neighbourhood has boutiques, cafes and historic buildings.
  • Visit the Bauhaus White City: Admire the UNESCO-listed Bauhaus architecture along Rothschild Boulevard.
