Walking - Most things are in walking distance and the best way to see the city :) Bus - Dowload the Moovit app to figure out the best route and bus # you need. To pay for a bus ride, you can use the Moovit app. Taxi / Cab - You can download Gett and connect your credit card so you won’t have to deal with hailing a cab or paying with cash.There is no need to tip your taxi driver in Israel.
Israelis work Sunday to Thursday. Most of the country “shuts down” from Friday evening to Saturday. While the malls and shops are indeed closed (including the main markets), in Tel Aviv you can still sit at most of the cafes, restaurants, and bars and order cabs to get around. Parks, movie theaters, gyms, etc. are all open. Around Tel Aviv, you have special buses that run during Shabbat for free. You can use the Moovit app to find out when and where they're coming. Alternatively, use an electric scooter app (Bird, Lime, Dott) to get around during Shabbat.
Tipping – When dining in Israel, if you have good (or even OK) service it is customary to leave a 12% tip. If you liked your waiter/waitress then 15% is even better! Unlike in the US, when you hand over your card to pay for the meal you need to tell the server how much tip you want to add before they swipe the card (unless you plan to leave cash, there is no way to add a tip on the receipt afterward).
