Culinary Walking Food Tours in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem

Delicious Israel's curated walking tours of the markets and backstreets of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem are not typical tourist tours. We are passionate about introducing you to our favorite local places to shop, eat, and experience Israeli cuisine. The walking tour range from 2 to 5 hours and are each filled with tastings, history, and fun!

Carmel Market (Tel Aviv)

Length of tour: 2-2.5 hours.

Woman in marketplace

This tasting tour introduces guests to the heartbeat of Israel's modern city—in the stalls of Tel Aviv’s largest open air market, the Carmel Market ( Shuk HaCarmel in Hebrew). Diving into the depths of the Carmel Market and the backstreets of its neighboring historic Yemenite quarter, we learn about the development of Israeli cuisine through the country's history and how four generations of vendors are able to maintain their shops after almost 100 years. We will hear stories from vendors whose families were the first in the market to new shops revitalizing the hip neighborhood. Our 7+ tastings will include some of the country's freshest hummus, street food, produce, baked goods and Yemenite cuisine. 

Who is this tour best for?

Foodies who love outdoor markets

Families with kids

(Larger groups can be accommodated for this market tour) 

Levinsky Market (Tel Aviv)

Length of tour: 2-2.5 hours.

Welcome to Tel Aviv's foodie paradise! Join us for a grazing tour of the market to enjoy 7+ delicacies in an area best known for its Turkish, Greek and Persian immigrant heritage, dating back to the 1920s.

Israel market food tour

Today, gourmet chefs visit Levinsky's timeless shops for their fresh spices, dried fruits, hand-roasted coffees and deli goodies. We will visit grandfathers at their third- and fourth-generation shops as well as young and inspired trendy spots bringing a new vibe to this hipster-forward neighborhood. 

Explorers and adventure travelers who want to stray a bit off the beaten path

Foodies, chefs and visitors who want to bring home the best spices and sauces

(Larger groups can be accommodated for this market tour.)

Market Hop Tour (Tel Aviv)

Length of tour: 4 hours.

Not sure which of Tel Aviv's markets is right for your tasting tour? No need to compromise—you can do both! If you have the time and energy, take this tour to do a "hop" through both the Carmel and Levinsky markets. 

True food-lovers with the stamina to walk and eat lots of tastings

Visitors who want to experience the diversity of one open air market (the Carmel Market) and its surrounding neighborhoods as well as the historic immigrant-turned-hipster area of the Levinsky Market.

Eat Tel Aviv

Length of tour: 4.5 hours, jaffa port → carmel market.

Sabich sandwich

Join us for a walk (long, but relatively flat) that weaves its way from the historic Jaffa Port to the diverse neighborhoods of Jaffa and Tel Aviv. Through the lens of food, we learn about the history and development of the Israeli culinary scene. Throughout the tour we will taste 10+ different delicacies, ranging from hummus at Israel's top hole-in-the-wall to street food to modern gastronomy. We will explore the neighborhoods of the Jaffa Flea Market, Neve Tzedek and cap off the tour in the Yemenite quarter and Carmel Market to taste what's in season. While a camera is highly suggested, the only thing we require of guests is that they come prepared with a big appetite (i.e., please eat a light breakfast ☺)! 

People who want to do a city tour through the lens of food. The tour is a taste of Jaffa and Tel Aviv's neighborhoods while learning the history of the city's growth

Visitors who enjoy lots of walking and sightseeing. The route is approximately 4-5 kilometers at a relaxed pace. There are two small hills, so mobility is necessary

Families with longer attention spans (shorter spans please look towards the shorter tours)

Eaters who are okay with carbs, sugar and gluten. If you are avoiding these, please inquire about one of our market tours, which may be more fitting

What to bring:

Comfy walking shoes

Bottle of water

Hat, sunscreen, sunglasses and anything else you need to be comfortable on a hot Tel Aviv day (umbrella and rain coat in the winter)

Eat Jerusalem (Machane Yehuda Market)

Length of tour: 2.5 hours.

Our tour in Jerusalem introduces guests to the cornerstone of where ancient and modern meet – in the stalls of the country's largest outdoor market, Machane Yehuda. We will taste and peruse the aisles alongside local chefs and residents purchasing groceries, tasting lots of wonderful bakery goodies, farm-fresh produce, artisanal cheeses, spices and sweets. Through our tastings we weave through the alleys learning about how drastically the market has shifted over the past decade.  

Visitors to Jerusalem that want to enjoy a "grazing" meal through the market

HaTikva Market (Tel Aviv)

Still largely untouched by tourism, and under-the-radar (even for many locals!), the Hatikva Market and its surroundings offer the perfect area for food exploration. Serving the historically working-class neighborhood of Hatikva, this open-air shopping market located in southeast Tel Aviv offers a diverse array of traditional Israeli foods and lesser-known ethnic specialties. Expect to visit traditional Yemenite and Turkish bakeries, taste Jewish-Iraqi comfort food, discover unique spices and blends, and experience how the neighborhood is shifting throughout our 7+ stops.

Carmel Market

The Carmel Market, stretching southwards from Allenby St. to less than a km from the Inter Continental David Hotel, is the largest and busiest market in Tel Aviv - or in Israel for that matter. Spices, pickled treats, fresh fruits and vegetables, flowers, meat and fish, household goods, baking goods and more: quantities are enormous and the prices are low.

פוטוליה

fresh fruits and vegetables 

Rub shoulders with a cross-section of Israel in this market’s crowded and bustling streets and lanes; enjoy the stall vendors as they pitch their wares. You may not understand the language, but there's no escaping the exuberance. It is the essence of Tel Aviv’s Middle Eastern character and also the place to find excellent bargains.

Savor the noise, smells and excitement. The friendly vendors best patter in Hebrew, usually praising their goods, but will also enjoy babbling in English, or bits and pieces of other languages if they notice a visitor and guess where he or she is from.

 Exploring the market for its local fast food counters and range of informal restaurants can make any visit to that more enjoyable, and combining it with a tour of the adjoining Yemenite Quarter (“Kerem HaTemanim”), which offers an excellent choice of casual ethnic restaurants for dining throughout the day - a sense of Tel Aviv from before the time the city was even founded - will only enhance the experience.

Whether you spend just an hour or two rubbing shoulders with Carmel Market regulars and the tourists that flock there, or put on your walking shoes for an extended though leisurely romp exploring the market's toothsome delights,  this is one Tel Aviv institution that is sure to be high on any Tel Aviv visitor's  list of tourism musts.

By Lilah Ramzi

Vogue’s guide to the best vintage stores in Tel Aviv is part of our directory of the very best vintage around the world , curated by editors from all over. Whether you’re traveling and searching for some superb stores to visit on your trip or are curious about your local vintage treasure chests, Vogue’s directory has you covered.

It shouldn't come as a surprise that the beach-side city of Tel Aviv is chock-full of great shopping. Upon closer inspection, a collection of vintage stores rises to the top of the list of Tel Aviv's must-shops. There's a thriving outdoor market culture in the Middle Eastern city where antiques have traditionally been sold (we list the market at Givon Square among our below list) but there are also independent boutiques you shouldn't miss.

Below, our guide to the best vintage stores in Tel Aviv curated with the help of our global editors.

Essell Studio

You'll find Essell Studio in an industrial-chic space that offers a slick contrast to its location in Tel Aviv's historic Yafo neighborhood. Here, a selection of men's and women's fashion and accessories, art, and collectibles for the home has been thoughtfully curated and arranged in the space. There are contemporary pieces from contemporary labels (Miu Miu, Moschino, Docle and Gabbana) from the ’90s to present, but there are also pieces from the ’60s-’80s.

Lulu Vintage

You'll find the cozy but well-stocked Lulu Vintage in Yafo, where vintage and secondhand designer pieces intermingle with more contemporary brands. Head to their Instagram page for a sneak peek at their offers—’80s Celine bags, Gucci bamboo satchels, and more. There's also a case of gold jewelry with more treasures.

Address: Sheinkin St 18, Tel Aviv-Yafo, 6523213

Pop Crimes Vintage

Here's a vintage store with a distinct point of view. Don't expect TikTok-ready ’90s throwbacks at Pop Crimes. Instead, you'll find sophisticated boho pieces—think Brooklyn-meets-Tel Aviv-meets cottage core. The dreamy space, which is well-designed with plants, rugs, and antique decor, sells cotton maxi dresses, oversized blazers, and vintage belts.

At this boutique, founded by Daniel Bar-On in 2017, you'll find pre-owned and vintage designer pieces, lots of denim, and a wide assortment of accessories. The vibe? Totally Americana—think oodles of Levi’s and snap-button shirts. Plus, there are sneakers, men's jerseys, and leather goods. And did we mention the cowboy boots?

Address: Rambam St 14, Tel Aviv-Yafo

Timeless Vintage

Former Israeli model Micky Mamon runs a vintage store out of her home in Tel Aviv and the pieces are just as serious as the runways she once walked. She offers both vintage and more recent secondhand fashions.

Address: Barzilai St 13, Tel Aviv-Yafo

Vintage Me Up

Vintage Me Up is an event series run by Elad Hoffman (considered Mr. Vintage in Israel). Every three or four months, vendors from around Israel come to Tel Aviv for a multi-day fair. After the fair's success, Elad opened a Vintage Me Up shop for a steady rotation of pop-ups for vintage vendors from around the country. The merch keeps rotating, and so do the details—check the Instagram account to stay up to date on how, where, and when to shop.
