Tragic Tel Aviv: A free walking tour through tragedy, terror - and resilience - on Tel Aviv's most famous street
I moved from Canada to Tel Aviv with my wife and children in 2018, to escape the cold weather. This isn't my first time living in Israel: During the 1990s I explored the religious lifestyle in Jerusalem, then abandoned religion, returned to Toronto and found work as a comedy writer, creating jokes for rising standup comedians in the USA and Canada. I also write comic books (for adults and kids). I decided to create a tour of local terror attack sites in Tel Aviv after being a witness to some of these attacks and personally knowing people who were wounded...and because I currently live right next to the locations where they happened - the tour is simply part of my life. I approach even the darkest subjects with a bit of humour, so you can expect a unique perspective when you walk this tragic path with me.
Pickup
Tour starts at Mikhoels Square (corner of King George / Ben Tsiyon Blvd). In front of the big "MiniMax" dollar store. I will stand there with my green folder and probably a T-shirt with a silly slogan on it. *If you don't see me, or you're arriving a little bit late, my Whatsapp is: +972 52 954 2742 and my name is Jeffrey
