Step off the beach and into a storybook as you stroll through Neve Tzedek — Tel Aviv’s very first neighborhood and its most charming! This guided walking tour is your time machine through cobblestone streets, pastel-colored houses, and the bohemian heart of the White City.

We’ll begin at the beautifully restored HaTachana Railway Station, where Ottoman trains once puffed into Jaffa, and journey through the winding lanes of Shabazi Street, filled with boutique shops, hidden gardens, and local secrets.

You’ll hear the tales behind:

The dazzling Suzanne Dellal Center, once a school for girls — now Israel’s home for dance.

The whimsical art of Nahum Gutman, who painted Tel Aviv as a place of dreams.

The story of Rokach House, where one family’s vision helped build a city from sand.

Whether it’s your first time in Tel Aviv or your fifth, this tour shows you the city’s soul — one charming corner at a time.

Perfect for photographers, architecture lovers, and curious wanderers!
