Oh what a wonderful view!
  • Tip Rating:
  • "Go to the top floor of the Shalom Tower, Tel Aviv's largest building, and you can see for miles over the entire city. It's amazing!" That's what I was told anyway. And I'm sure it is, except that after I'd walked half way over town to get there I found out that the top floor is currently closed. The smiling security guard couldn't tell me why (not being awkward, he just didn't seem to know) but by the way he laughed as I asked him I'm sure he's getting used to turning away disappointed tourists! There are 30 floors, the top being an observation deck with panoramic views, but at the moment you can only get so far as the 29th - but these are all offices so there's no view. On the lower floors are shops and cafes and an interesting art mural, but it's the view that you come here for, and at the moment it's not there!!

    Old Jaffa
  • Tip Rating:
  • The reconstructed area of Jaffa is one huge tourist trap. It's a beautiful place to visit and explore all the little shops. The whole area is occupied by artists, selling their artifacts in their studios. But, do not try to go to one of the restaurants there. They are usually bad, overpriced and Kosher. Instead, go to one of the restaurants in other area of Jaffa. There you'll find much better and cheaper restaurants, selling mostly sea food and Arab dishes.

    Don't think you will be able...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Don't think you will be able to get money at every bank. It isn't possible. But do go to bank Hapoalim! At this bank bancards and creditcards are accepted (bring your pasport too). The cashmachines of Bank Hapoalim will accept your bankcards / other cards for sure.

    Ensure that the taxi drivers...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Ensure that the taxi drivers put the meters on - locals AND tourists alike fall foul of this at times.
