    Great walking tour of Old Jaffa

    I was so lucky to have Alina as my guide. I was the only one for this tour! Alina was very knowledgeable and combined history and religion. She also helped me understand the complicated history of Jaffa. Alina was also sensitive to my needs, especially walking up and down stairs. I truly recommend this tour with Alina.

    Basically a scam

    Tour “guide” didn’t really know anything about Jaffa and just walked around with us mentioning some random tidbits. She was not a certified guide and this seemed more of a side gig. Some things that she said were not even correct. Asked at the beginning of the tour if she could take pictures of us on her phone and we ended up being asked to pay $60 to get them. Felt very disappointing as for some of the group it was the first visit to Jaffa and we didn’t learn anything, AND we would have taken our own pictures instead. Wrote to the company about our experience after the tour and they didn't even have the decency to acknowledge it.

    Response from the operator: We truly apologize that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. We want to clarify that this particular tour is a self-guided experience, with assistance provided to help you get to the destination. The tour is not led by a certified guide, and we always encourage guests to read the tour description carefully beforehand to make sure it aligns with their preferences. We’re sorry to hear that there were inaccuracies in the information provided during the tour. We always aim for a quality experience and will certainly take your feedback into account as we continue to improve. Regarding the photos, we apologize for any misunderstanding. Our policy does mention the cost for professional photos taken during the experience, and we regret if this was unclear at the start. We also want to assure you that we value customer feedback, and we’re genuinely sorry if your previous message wasn’t addressed in a timely manner. If you'd like to further discuss your concerns or request a resolution, please feel free to contact us directly via the phone number or email listed on our website. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to improve your experience in the future.

    Enlightening

    The knowledge that my tour guide had was phenomenal. He showed me some parts of old Jaffa that I didn’t know about. The hanging orange tree is not to be missed!

    Tel Aviv; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tel Aviv.

    How much does Tel Aviv; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $60 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; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 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; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 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; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking 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; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tel Aviv; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tel Aviv; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking 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; Jaffa Old City, Port & Shuk Hapishpishim Walking Tour?
