Galilee & Golan Day Tours
The northernmost region of Israel is the Galilee, bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the west, the Golan Heights to the east, Lebanon to the north, and the Carmel Mountain range to the south. The Galilee boasts a picturesque landscape of rolling hills, farmlands, streams, waterfalls, and dense forests, making it a haven of natural beauty. Additionally, the region holds religious significance as it is where Jesus spent his ministry, moving from one village to another, preaching the word of God.
Galilee day tours offer a variety of options to explore the region’s natural wonders, history, and religious sites. Christian Galilee day tours typically include visits to Nazareth, Jesus’ hometown and the site of the annunciation. Other sites on these tours may include Capernaum, Mount of Beatitudes, Cana, and the breathtaking Sea of Galilee, where Jesus is believed to have walked on water. On some Christian tours, visitors can even be baptized in the Jordan River at Yardenit.
Galilee day tours that focus on history and natural beauty may include visits to the coastal cities of Caesarea, an ancient Roman port, Haifa, home to the Baha’i Gardens, the Crusader city of Acre, and the stunning white sea grottoes of Rosh HaNikra. Jewish-focused Galilee day tours may include visits to Safed, the birthplace of Kabbalah, Mount Meron, the site of the Tomb of Rashbi, and Tiberias on the Sea of Galilee’s shore.
The Golan Heights is another highlight of the Galilee, serving as a natural border between Israel and Syria. The area boasts vineyards, wineries, hot springs, and the remains of former Syrian fortifications. Galilee day tours may include stops at the Talmudic-era village of Katzrin, the archaeological site of Megiddo, or Tabhga, where the multiplication of the loaves and fish took place. All Galilee tours are conducted in air-conditioned vehicles and include pick-up and drop-off service, accompanied by an expert tour guide.
