Amazing experience we will cherish and recount forever thanks to Levi's hospitality and breadth of knowledge
Our family of seven had the absolute pleasure of touring Israel with Levi for four full days, and we could not have asked for a better guide. Over the course of our tours - Old Jerusalem, Tel Aviv & Jaffa, Masada and the Dead Sea, and Akko and Caesarea - Levi was consistently punctual, incredibly knowledgeable, and endlessly engaging. What truly set Levi apart was his rare ability to connect with everyone in our group, from grandparents to grandchildren. He treated us like family, tailoring his explanations and stories so that each person felt included, curious, and excited to learn. His deep knowledge of Israel’s history, combined with thoughtful insights into modern Israeli society, greatly enriched our experience and appreciation of the country. Levi was easy to communicate with, flexible with our needs, and an absolute joy to spend time with. His warmth, enthusiasm, and passion for Israel were evident every single day. Thanks to him, these tours were not just sightseeing trips, but meaningful, memorable experiences we will cherish forever. We recommend Levi without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional guide in Israel - we will certainly be back.
Response from the operator: Dear Yakov, many thanks for your great review. I felt like you are my beloved family, indeed and did everything what I would do for my family. Hope to see you again and best regards to all and each one in your marvelous family.

I booked the trips for my...
I booked the trips for my friends/guests. They enjoyed it and thought it was great. I found the amount of pictures that the guide took of the 2 females guests and of some of the body parts were uncomfortable for me. Would I recommend it next -? They liked the tour. I wasn't so happy with the amount and type pictures taken especially of one of them.
Response from the operator: To start with, you've never booked any of my tours, and your name does not say a word for me. Therefore, you cannot comment on our tours, sorry. But moreover, I had only 1 Tel Aviv tour in September, and it was booked directly by the customer. My tour guide who guided 2 ladies on the tour on the Sept 3rd, took few pictures by their request and with their full consent, and sent those to the ladies only. None of the pictures was published on the social media. And none of the pictures does not show any "body parts". I regret that you have a problem with that, but no modesty breach was made, whatsoever. No pictures were taken by the guide private initiative, anyway. And in any case, if there is a problem, we should hear from the guest not from someone whom we do not know

Brilliant Guide - one of a kind
My husband and I were so pleased with the two private tours we received from Levi. He is a source of great knowledge, deep in his understanding of history and hugely passionate. We felt so privileged and grateful to have such an intelligent and richly knowledgeable guide. There are guides… and then there are Guides!!! Do not be mistaken - he is the real deal. Regina and Adam.
Response from the operator: Dear Regina and Adam, it has been a great pleasure to spend two days with you. As you've expressed it - there are guests and the are Guests, indeed. Thanks a lot for being with me!

Great tour!
Levi did a great job showing us the many sights of Tel Aviv. Communication of the history and the story behind the highlights was very good. We would highly recommend him.

Fascinating and in-depth tour of Jaffa.
Our guide, Levi Selkind, did an excellent job of taking us through the history of Jaffa and Tel-Aviv, visiting the old city of Jaffa in some detail and touring us through the city of Tel-Aviv. His insight and explanations were very informative and his casual and friendly manner was very welcomed. We highly recommend this tour and guide.
Response from the operator: Dear Eddie Many thanks for your review. I'm happy to be able to show as much as it was possible of our great Tel Aviv-Jaffa and to add some insights about the whole country and its history. Hope to guide you again Warmest wishes Levi Zelkind

Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tel Aviv.
How much does Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $999 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tel Aviv usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tel Aviv is not rushed.
Is Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tel Aviv, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tel Aviv can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tel Aviv and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tel Aviv within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tel Aviv?
+
On Outty we rank every Tel Aviv experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Carmel Market Tasting Tour - LocaLocal, Guided Pub Crawl Night Tour at Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv Street Art & Graffiti Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tel Aviv?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tel Aviv?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour?
+
Included: Private tour; Entrance Fees to Ilana Goore Museum; Professional art historian guide; Tel Aviv Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Entrance Fees to Itzhak rabin Memorial Observation Balcony. Not included: Lunch; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 10 listed pickup locations in and around Tel Aviv.
What languages is Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in Russian and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Tel Aviv and Jaffa Most Exciting Private Tour?
