Galilee tours

Things to do in Galilee

Galilee is central to Christianity. This rocky region in Israel's north is where the Bible's most captivating stories occurred. Whether you're motivated by religious conviction, historical addiction or just a love of the outdoors, you'll do well to visit. Take a Galilee private tour and explore this Biblical landscape with a local guide. Galilee is rich in history. Administered by Rome during Christ's time, it was lost in 638 and remained under Islamic rule until the British took over after WWI, followed by Israel in 1948. Your guide will prove invaluable in simplifying this complex web of religion, history and culture, and you'll leave with a much richer understanding of how early Christianity developed. Stroll the shoreline of the Sea of Galilee, where Jesus is believed to have walked on water. Those interested in connecting the Biblical dots should visit Capernaum, Tiberius and Nazareth, while walkers can follow the "Jesus trail," a multi-day hiking route for pilgrims.
