Entering the Haifa port, Mount Carmel welcomes you to visit Israel’s third largest city. It sits on the slopes of the mountain, facing the Mediterranean Sea. Some call it ‘Israel’s San Francisco’.
It’s an unusual city to navigate; however, the advantage is the stunning scenery and terrain.
This tour is through modern Israel, but all about Bible, history, and nature.
As an archaeologist of the biblical periods – this is my love and passion, combining biblical texts with reality of present Israel.
We will drive through the green open Jezreel valley to the biblical city of Nazareth. Markets, churches, and some amazing restaurants create the unique atmosphere of this city.
We will then continue to the cradle of Christianity – the Sea of Galilee – the largest freshwater lake of Israel.
The pastoral landscapes and meadows hold many secrets of our past, common to all of humanity.
