Fun Things to Do in Tel Aviv for Families: 6 Activities for a Memorable Day Out
Updated: Aug 30
Looking for fun things to do in Tel Aviv with your family?
Tel Aviv has much more to offer than beaches and restaurants. Whether you're visiting with young children, teenagers, adult kids, or several generations of the family together, there are plenty of ways to explore the city while actually doing something together.
From a family treasure hunt through the streets of Tel Aviv to graffiti tours, food tastings and a private boat trip, here are some of our favorite family activities in Tel Aviv.
1. Take on a Family Treasure Hunt in Tel Aviv 🔎
If you're looking for an activity that gets everyone involved, a Tel Aviv Treasure Hunt is a fun way to explore the city while solving riddles, completing challenges and working together as a family.
D-TLV's Treasure Hunt is an interactive urban game designed for families of all ages. Instead of simply walking around the city and looking at the sights, you'll discover Tel Aviv through clues, creative missions, photo challenges and team tasks.
The experience combines sightseeing, teamwork, problem-solving and a little friendly competition, making it a great option for families who want to spend quality time together while experiencing Tel Aviv in a completely different way. The existing D-TLV activity also incorporates navigation, creative photography, hidden corners of the city and collaborative challenges.
Where can you do the Treasure Hunt?
The experience can be arranged in several areas of Tel Aviv, including:
Old Jaffa – perfect if you want history, beautiful streets and an atmospheric setting.
Rothschild Boulevard and central Tel Aviv – a great way to explore some of the city's most famous streets alongside hidden corners and local stories.
Tel Aviv Port – ideal for families who want to combine the activity with time by the sea, lunch or another activity at the port.
The activity is designed to introduce participants to both well-known locations and less obvious parts of the city.
Who is it good for?
Almost any family.
The activity is especially good for:
Families with children and teenagers
Parents traveling with adult children
Multi-generational family outings
Family birthday celebrations
Families visiting Tel Aviv from abroad
Local families looking for something different to do together
Family reunions and special occasions
Groups of 5 or more can book at the regular group rate, and families of four can also arrange the experience with the applicable minimum booking.
Another advantage is flexibility: since this is a private family experience, the starting time can be coordinated according to your plans and availability.
So whether you're celebrating Dad's birthday, planning a family day in Tel Aviv or simply looking for an activity that everyone can participate in, the Treasure Hunt turns sightseeing into a shared adventure.
2. Discover Tel Aviv Through Its Street Art 🎨
A Tel Aviv graffiti tour is a great option for families who enjoy art, photography and discovering the stories behind a city.
Tel Aviv's street art constantly changes, and a guided tour can reveal things you would probably walk straight past on your own.
Rather than simply looking at murals, the experience gives families a way to talk about the stories, ideas and culture reflected in the art around them. D-TLV currently offers an interactive graffiti experience focused on using the city's street art to explore Tel Aviv and Israeli culture.
It's particularly fun for older children and teenagers, who often appreciate an activity that feels less like a traditional guided tour.

3. Take a Private Boat Trip Along the Tel Aviv Coast ⛵
Sometimes the best way to experience Tel Aviv is to leave the streets behind for a while.
A private boat trip gives families the chance to enjoy the Mediterranean, see the Tel Aviv coastline from a completely different perspective and spend a few hours together on the water.
D-TLV can arrange private boat experiences that are adapted to the group, with a professional skipper and the option to customize the experience according to the occasion. The standard private boat experience is two hours, with options to extend it or add extras.
For families, the experience can be adapted away from the party-style format and turned into a relaxed family sailing experience, depending on the group and boat selected.
It's a particularly nice idea for:
Family birthdays
Visiting relatives
A special family day out
Sunset experiences
Families celebrating an occasion together

4. Taste Your Way Through Carmel Market 🥙
Getting a family to agree on one restaurant isn't always easy.
So why choose just one?
A Carmel Market tasting tour allows you to walk through one of Tel Aviv's best-known markets while tasting different foods from local vendors along the way.
D-TLV offers guided culinary experiences through the market that combine local food with stories and information about the area.
It's a good option for families because food naturally gives everyone something to talk about — and everyone can choose their favorite taste by the end.
For families with dietary requirements, let us know in advance so we can check what can be adapted.

5. Explore Tel Aviv by Bike 🚲
For active families, a bike tour through Tel Aviv can cover much more of the city than a walking tour while still allowing you to experience the neighborhoods up close.
D-TLV offers guided bike experiences through Tel Aviv's neighborhoods, coastline and lesser-known spots.
This can be a particularly good choice for families with older children or teenagers who are comfortable cycling, and it's a nice way to combine sightseeing with some outdoor activity.
6. Explore Old Jaffa Together 🌅
Old Jaffa is one of those places where simply wandering around can already feel like an activity.
Its narrow streets, viewpoints, historic buildings and Mediterranean atmosphere make it a great area for a family outing.
For families who want more context than a self-guided walk, D-TLV can also arrange guided walking experiences, including tours of Old Jaffa.
You can also combine Jaffa with the Treasure Hunt, lunch or another activity to create a fuller family day.
