Carmel Market self-guided food experience

Discover the diverse flavours of Tel Aviv on this self-guided tasting tour of the iconic Carmel Market (Shuk HaCarmel). Equipped with a tasting card loaded with 10 tickets, you’ll explore the market’s colourful alleyways, exchanging your tickets for a curated selection of street bites, sweet treats, and refreshing drinks—each handpicked to represent the vibrant soul of Israeli cuisine.

Carmel Market, the city’s largest and most storied open-air market, is a true Tel Aviv institution. Since 1920, it has been a meeting point for cultures, cuisines, and generations. From the aroma of fresh-baked bourekas to sizzling sabich, from artisanal halva to boutique brews—you’ll experience the essence of local life and flavours in every bite.

No guide. No group. No schedule. Just you, the food, and the rhythm of the market. Stroll at your own pace, chat with friendly vendors, discover hidden gems and enjoy spontaneous moments that only this kind of tour can offer.

Enjoy an immersive culinary adventure designed for curious travellers who want to taste Tel Aviv like a local.
