Great cycle and guide with tips on the best places to eat and drink with some thoughtful history of the port and city. Very easy cycling with mostly bike lanes and flat. Highly recommended
We had so much fun! Mikey was great! He was a wealth of knowledge about Tel Aviv and Jaffa. I would recommend this to everyone!!
We were very disappointed with this bike tour. A quick overview of history was given and after that - nothing. We rode from area to area with little to no commentary. Sometimes we didn’t know where we had been until after we had passed through. Other bike tours we have taken with La Vacanza Travel have been great learning experiences and lots of fun. There weren’t stops for local food or photo ops like I read in other reviews. I asked to run into a bakery once along the way. It was not good. No guidance was offered about options. He stopped at a clothing store that he said was special so we should run in. We were shocked at what was inside and immediately left after going in six feet. We’re not into bondage, black feathers and metal. The description of the tour said we would see Bauhaus buildings in downtown Tel Aviv. We didn’t go downtown at all. Mikey was totally unaware of any situation behind him as he didn’t look back unless he stopped at a light. Sometimes we were caught up with traffic but he kept going. We didn’t mind the tight areas as we have been on tours and in countries with much less space, but again, Mikey never looked back to see if we were following. If I asked anything about the city, we were suddenly going there, even if we didn’t want to go because we were going later, as stated. I just wanted information. Perhaps he was trying to make personal adjustments, but it just seemed like he was blindly guessing about where we wanted to go on the tour, rather than showing us his city. This was to be our overview and jumping off point as first time visitors. So one could say we went more on a bike ride in Tel Aviv, rather than on a tour. It was mostly boring and not worth the money. There are lots of bike tours - I made sure to review the one we took. No mistake.
Mikey was an amazing guide. He was knowledgeable but also let us enjoy the beautiful city with some breaks and time to soak in the views and history. Would recommend this tour for anyone looking to see the city in a short time.
You will see most of the city on the bicycle. I found a good way to see the city but a but fast, not really possible to take pictures. Mikey is a really cool guy and a great guide!!! Thank you:)
