What to do with your group in Tel Aviv

Bringing a youth group to Tel Aviv? You're in great company. Most international youth, gap-year and educational tours combine culture with hands-on history: walk the UNESCO-listed White City for a Bauhaus deep-dive, explore ancient Jaffa, dig into Israeli history at the Eretz Israel Museum, or join a Birthright-style itinerary blending Tel Aviv with Jerusalem and the Galilee. Hayarkon Park is perfect for a group picnic between visits.

Looking for the perfect accommodation in Tel Aviv? Stay at the MEININGER Hotel Tel Aviv and enjoy comfort, convenience, and affordability, all under one roof whether you’re here for business, sightseeing, or a bit of both.

Find us on Levanda Street 53 in Neve Sha'anan, in southern Tel Aviv, right next to Tel Aviv–HaHagana Railway Station, one of Israel’s busiest rail hubs. So if you’re flying into Ben Gurion Airport, you’ll be at our door in just around 10 minutes by direct train (every 30 minutes, one of the fastest airport connections in Israel). Heading to Jerusalem for the day? That’s 32 minutes on the same line. The New Central Bus Station is 400 m away, connecting you to the rest of the country. And the city’s best neighborhoods are all on foot: Levinsky Market (10 min), Florentin’s murals (20 min), Neve Tzedek (25 min), and ancient Jaffa (15 min by bike).

Our hotel gives you the best of both worlds: a well-connected spot in the authentic, bohemian south of the city, with quick links to the beach, the White City, and everything in between. Great food, legendary markets, and Bauhaus architecture are right at your doorstep. Whether you’re here for work, the beach, the food or just soaking up the Mediterranean sun, the MEININGER Hotel Tel Aviv puts you in the perfect spot to experience it all. Discover why we’re one of the top hotels in Tel Aviv and book your stay today!

Tel Aviv is perfect for youth and school trips. Discover the UNESCO-listed White City and its Bauhaus architecture on guided walking tours, wander ancient Jaffa with its alleys, port and legendary stories, visit the Eretz Israel Museum and Palmach Museum for Israeli history, or take day trips to Jerusalem's Old City, Masada and the Dead Sea, Caesarea's Roman ruins, or Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial. Students learn hands-on at interactive science and archaeology museums, and beach-based activities (paddleboarding, kayaking, beach volleyball) balance the itinerary.

Is the MEININGER Hotel Tel Aviv suitable for large youth groups?

Our hotel is great for large youth and student groups: multi-bed rooms sleeping up to 6, group dining rooms, a quiet lounge for briefings or curriculum sessions, and an entire floor reserved on request so leaders can supervise more easily.

These rooms are positioned near or on the same floor as student rooms (on request) for easier supervision. Group leaders get complimentary breakfast, access to the lounge, and priority check-in/out. Ask our team for a quiet briefing space, perfect for evening check-ins with the group.

What are the best educational day trips from Tel Aviv?

Top group day trips: Jerusalem (Old City, Western Wall, Yad Vashem, Church of the Holy Sepulchre) — 32 min by train; Masada + Dead Sea (history, geography, biology lessons in one day) — 1.5–2 hr; Caesarea’s Roman ruins by the Mediterranean — 1 hr; Haifa and Akko (Bahá’í Gardens, UNESCO-listed crusader port) — 1 hr; plus a half-day in Old Jaffa for art, architecture and ancient history.

Yes, safety is our top priority. Our hotel has 24/7 reception with bilingual staff trained in emergency response, key-card access to rooms and floors, secure luggage storage, in-room safes, CCTV in public areas, and a quiet residential location in Neve Sha'anan, away from nightlife strips.

Tel Aviv itself is one of the safest major cities in the region, with strong emergency services.
