A small group tour in a new, air-conditioned coach ensures you all the time you need to fully experience and marvel at the many sites and views you will encounter along the way.Starting with pick-ups from your hotel in Tel-Aviv, our small group begins the 2 hour drive north along the coastal highway towards Nazareth, passing along the way lush green landscapes and a wonderful view of the Mediterranean as well learning on the cities and places you will pass by as you prepare for the rest of the trip.
The very first site we will explore in the historic city of Nazareth where, according to the New Testament, Jesus spent most of his childhood is the Basilica of the Annunciation – a breathtaking church located in the center of the city and is believed to be built on the house of the Virgin Mary and Joseph, parents of Jesus.
From there, a short walk to the nearby St. Joseph’s church - that stands where once Mary's husband Joseph lived and worked as a carpenter, a profession Jesus practiced as well.
After basking in the glory and beauty of Nazareth, we continue onwards with our trusted guide, through Kfar Cana, where Jesus turned water into wine, and onto the popular resort town of Tiberias, found on the shores of the Kinneret, otherwise known as the Sea of Galilee.
Drive along the sea to visit Capernaum and view the ruins of the excavated ancient synagogue where Jesus taught his disciples, and was near the home of some of his apostles. Continue to Tabgha , the site of the miracle of fish and loaves located at the foot of the Golan Heights;
We then travel south along the shore to reach Yardenit, where the Jordan River flows out of the sea of Galilee towards the dead sea.
It is here that Jesus is said to have been baptized. Having followed in the footsteps of Christ, we return to Tel Aviv.
