Start your tour at Haifa port with your private guide, driving through the picturesque landscapes of Galilee and enjoying views of the Jezreel Valley. Explore Nazareth, where Jesus spent his early years, and visit the Basilica of the Annunciation and the nearby Church of St. Joseph. Capture a photo at Mary's Well, believed to hold magical waters, and wander the lively old shuk (market) for local coffee, sweets, and souvenirs.
Continue to Tabgha to see the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fish, and then head to the serene Mount of Beatitudes along the Sea of Galilee. You'll have opportunities to savor the breathtaking scenery and peaceful ambiance. Consider a delightful lunch at the excellent fish restaurant in Kibbutz Ein Gev.
Journey on to Capernaum, a charming ancient fishing village that now houses an unearthed synagogue from the 1st century, overseen by Franciscan monks and Greek orthodox priests.
From the northwest shores of the Galilee, proceed to Yardenit, situated on the banks of the Jordan River, believed to be where John the Baptist baptized Jesus. It's a spiritual destination for Christian pilgrims from around the world who seek immersion in these sacred waters. Take in the serenity of the site before returning to Haifa port or your hotel, guided by your private guide.
