If you're planning, or thinking about planning, a trip to Tel Aviv then this guide is well worth checking out. The author's personal experience with the city definitely shows and there is a wonderful variety of places detailed within the book. With such an extensive list of places in Tel Aviv that you might want to go see, I liked that there was a section called "Top Ten" which basically gives you 10 "must-see/do" activities while you are there.I also liked the section on Israeli culture. It was true local advice in terms of what to expect at the very security conscious airport, traffic, attitudes, and even the double meaning of getting a cup of coffee!In each category the author highlighted best in breed activities by marking them as "The Best!". All and all, I was very happy with this guide. It's pretty simple, straightforward, and with the Kindle app I'll have it right on my smartphone during my travels.My only negative criticism of this book was that is that the grammar was awkward in certain spots. It wasn't to the point where it was a distraction, but it was noticeable. With that said, I still think this is 5-star local advice on a fascinating city that isn't normally the first tourist spot an American like myself thinks about.
