Colorful & Delicious Tour of Akko
with Tour Guide Karmit Arbel
Old Akko

Tour guide Karmit Arbel invites you to discover a different side of Akko — to wander through lesser-known alleyways and visit unique spots.
We will step into a cool, shaded labyrinth, venturing deep into the alleys, homes, and hidden corners of the city.
Through flavors, art, stories, and heartwarming encounters, we will find inspiration and discover a fascinating world.
We will visit the Western Galilee Now Visitor Center and then cross the famous market, meeting the people and tasting the delicacies that make it so authentic.
We will stop to taste Ali’s special sweets, meet the people behind the hummus shop that was the subject of an episode of “Aharoni & Gidi’s Wonderful Journey”, and taste a mouthwatering golden ball in pickled lemon.
We will visit the spice shop of Marwan Kurdi, a fourth-generation spice apothecary, where we will smell and hear about some of the dozens of jars of exotic spices from Syria, Lebanon, India, and Pakistan.
We will walk through the ornate alleys that have become an artistic representation with a fascinating social impact, and visit Beit Elfarasha, which creates ripples of change through the power of exciting women and local cooking workshops.
We will visit the Naomeh Gallery and hear its story, and at the end of the market we will meet Tina Khativ, the woman who turned her grandmothers’ recipes into a work of art, and taste the best malabi in the country.
Then, a final bite to finish from Samir’s knafe at his restaurant Turkiz, whose name has gone far and wide as the best knafe in the Middle East.
We invite you to a tour full of flavors, stories, and special encounters.
Price: 130 NIS per person (includes tastings and a guided tour)
