Tour description

 

Join a fascinating tour through the streets of Tel Aviv following the shadow people - the story of the underground members who fought against the British Mandate about 80 years ago. 

During the tour we will learn about the historical background of the underground movements, meet prominent commanders, and discuss operational methods that correspond with modern strategy as well. 

During the tour we will stop beside buildings that have survived to this day and serve as silent testimony to the daring operations. We will also pass through the Railway Park where the historic train to Jerusalem once ran. 

We will understand the deep connection between the Irgun (Etzel) and Lehi to Tel Aviv and its residents. 

We will learn about the British authorities' response - from restrictions and curfews to assassinations.
