Galilee

Full of soul, history, and tranquility

Imagine a sparkling freshwater lake with sapphire waters, surrounded by wildflower meadows, orchards, birdsongs, and mountain panoramas as far as the eye can see. It’s the Kinneret, the Sea of Galilee. Combine this pure beauty with biblical history, ancient masterpieces, natural attractions, breath-taking bike trails, and world-famous wineries, and you’ll understand why the splendor of the Galilee cannot be overstated.

Galilee Adventures

An oasis for nature lovers

From swimming to serious hiking, base jumping, paragliding, canyoning, scenic bike trails, viewpoints, nature reserves, and more, there’s so much to do in the Sea of Galilee. Those who love skiing can head to Mount Hermon in winter, depending on the weather.

Multicultural cities that mix old and new

A trip to the north of Israel is not complete without visiting Nazareth, Haifa, and Acre.

Nazareth’s old city, the city of the Gospel, is where the childhood home of Jesus is believed to be. Set in the modern Jewish state with a Muslim-majority population, visiting Nazareth is like going back to the past.

Haifa is a large Mediterranean port city situated on the slopes of Mount Carmel. A visit to the exquisite Bahai Gardens with its colorful flowers, trees, sculptures, fountains, and pools is an absolute must. So are the restored German Colony and Wadi Nisnas.

Acre is a crusader port city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit the citadel, the old town, the archeological marvels, the mosques, the churches and the synagogues for a wondrous experience.
