Half day tour in Tel Aviv and Jaffa

Half day tour in Tel Aviv and Jaffa 


Jaffa is one of the oldest inhabited places in the world, destroyed and rebuilt dozens of times in its four thousand long life. Some of the biggest empires in history have ruled Jaffa and left their mark, from the Romans to the British. The city has been reinvented many times: the Egyptian city, the backwater Ottoman town, the heart of a cosmopolitan Levant, the epicenter of the Arab Revolt( 1936)and a symbol of Jewish-Arab coexistence. This 2 hour tour is short on walking, but packed full of legends and drama. I will take you through the most beautiful streets and squares of Old Jaffa and show you the stories beyond the breathtaking views. The Clock Tower, The New Saray, Adolf Eichmann’s prison, The Jaffa Riots, The British Mandate, Andromeda’s Rock, The Mosque of the Sea, The Port of Jaffa, Jaffa Lighthouse, Jonah and the Whale.  The Lion Temple, The Wishing Bridge, St Peter’s Church. Then we will have a short drive through the new city of Tel Aviv to explore the fast growing of the city in about a hundred years of building everywhere.
