Nazareth, Tiberias, and Sea of Galilee Trip

Trip to Nazareth, Tiberias, and the Sea of Galilee

After collecting you from your hotel early in the morning, we will depart on the bus towards Nazareth, the childhood home of Jesus Christ.

Our first stop will be the Church of the Annunciation, where according to folklore, Angel Gabriel announced to Maria that she would be the mother of Christ. We descend into the grotto under the basilica to discover the remains of what is thought to be Maria´s accommodation. We continue to St. Joseph's Church, the place where the scriptures situate the carpenter's shop which was run by the family of Jesus

After visiting Nazareth, we will head to the coastal towns of the Galilee Sea. In the ancient fishing village of Capernaum, you will discover the house of St. Peter, who was the first Pope in history. Following the coastline, we eventually arrive at Tabgha, the place which the Bible cites as being the setting for the miracle of ´the feeding of the 5000´.

We then continue to Tiberias where we will relax on the seafront promenade and do some shopping. Our last stop will be Yardenit on the banks of the river Jordan where Jesus was baptized.

We will return to Jerusalem before returning to the hotel at the end of the evening.
