What to expect

We begin our tour by traveling along the coastal road parallel to the Mediterranean, we turn inland and drive through the Valley of Armageddon (Revelations 16:6), from here we can see Megiddo.  On our way towards Nazareth we visit the Mt. of Precipitation (Luke 4:28-30).

In Nazareth we visit the Church of Annunciation which was constructed on the spot where Gabriel appeared to Mary and told her she would soon be with child (Luke 1:26).  Next-door we find the Church of Saint Joseph where Jesus’ father, Joseph had his carpentry.

We depart Nazareth and travel towards the Sea of Galilee. On the way we pass Cana village where Jesus turned water into wine (John 2:1-12) on the way to the Sea of Galilee.  At the bottom of Mount Beatitude we visit Capernaum on the shore of the Kinneret, or Sea of Galilee. Here you will explore the home of Peter, and the Church of the Multiplication (Mark 6:30-44). We travel along the shoreline of the Sea of Galilee where Jesus calmed the sea and walked on the water (Mark 4:35-41, 6:45-52).  Across the lake we can see the Golan Heights forming a beautiful backdrop as we pass the biblical city of Tiberias which was settled more than 2,000 years ago and named after the Roman emperor Tiberius.

We reach the southern region of the Kinneret where the Jordan River flows into the Sea of Galilee and where Jesus was baptized. Here you may take a rare opportuinity to participate in a baptismal ceremony in the very same spot that Jesus did so many years ago (Mark 1:9-11).  As we head south on our return journey we can see Mount Tabor where the Transfiguration took place (Matthew 17:1-9).
