Happily thrust into the lime light of the international gay tourism scene in recent years, Tel Aviv is loving her new  international rainbow status.

Far from being a new phenomenom, Tel Aviv’s vibrant and colourful gay community has been thriving for years. Gay boys, girls, men and women have always contributed positively to the city and are a deeply respected and much loved part of the community.

First time visitor to this years Gay Pride parade put it this way.. ‘No one batters an eyelid when same sex couples wander the streets hand in hand, from your policeman to your granny, everyone seems to support the gay community here in Tel Aviv, its wonderfully refreshing.’ 

Called the ‘city that never sleeps’ Tel Aviv  offers a fantastic vacation destination for those whose purses tinkle with pink pounds. Voted as one of the 10 sexiest cities in the world by the New York times, some say the city rivals New York and London for its non stop action. 

Packed with quality restaurants, atmospheric sidewalk cafes, modern clubs bringing top name DJ’s, lively bars, live music venues, exceptional local and international dance and theatre options, fabulous art galleries and an endless array of designer fashion boutiques,  the city speaks to everyone and with the bonus of a beach on your doorstep and  delicious sunshine 365 days a year, its a city that simply must be experienced.

Proud host of Israels annual Gay pride parade, Tel aviv is a warm, friendly and liberal city. She is one big melting pot of action.  Shes kitch, she classy, shes outrageous, she graceful, she loves to party, she loves to relax and she loves you having a good time.
