What to Expect
Carmel Market, or Delicious Israel
The colorful market can rightfully be called the gastronomic heart of Tel Aviv - not only ordinary locals and tourists like to visit here, but also renowned chefs. A range of all shades of tastes and aromas... cafes, restaurants, snack bars, and grocery stores... noise, music, seller cries, and calls - a real show of an eastern market.
And now imagine that 100 years ago it was called "Russian." Why? You will hear it on the audio tour! And, of course, you will learn about the most popular, famous, and interesting places of Carmel and its surroundings. Make a note of what you must buy and try on the spot. You will find notes about Jewish gastronomy and a bit about the kosher food, as well as get acquainted with other cuisines presented here: Iraqi, Moroccan, Yemenite, Turkish, Georgian, and others.
Our audio program includes an interactive element: during the journey, you will try to complete tasks on geolocation, searching for artifacts, and solving interesting riddles. And after the quest, you can return to the market to have lunch at one of the recommended places.
Glory and Poverty of Kerem a-Teimanim
Not far from the market, you will walk through the authentic quarters of one of the districts created even before the appearance of Tel Aviv. Discover its amazing history and find out how these dilapidated houses became some of the most expensive in Israel.
