The whole trip was very rushed but satisfying. We went to the Church of the Annunciation, the Baptism in the Jordan River, the ruins of Capernaum and the Church of Five Loaves and Two Fishes. The tour guide explained clearly and patiently. The only complaint was that for lunch, we were taken to a restaurant to eat fish, only offers fried fish, kebab skewers and salads for USD25/set, and drinks are charged separately.

The tour led by Yoav Malachi was my favorite of my 15 day trip. He was informative and entertaining. I enjoyed hearing of the history while seeing the sights, and he talked while he drove to my the ride interesting. Such a beautiful, rich history in the area. So glad to be a part of this tour.

Great day trip. Very comprehensive to many important Biblical sites. Our guide/driver was very knowledgeable and made sure we had enough time to take in every attraction. Just a note about the Baptism site. We were told by the site when we got there that you had to pre-arrange for a priest/reverend, etc. We were lucky to be invited into a small group that had a priest, so it worked out, but that could have went another direction. Long day, but very worth the time and effort.

Roei Talmor our tour guide was passionate, knowledgeable and had such great enthusiasm! My mum felt unwell during the trip and Roei was very caring and took time out to make sure that my mum was ok. Thank you! The River Jordan is beautiful, me and my mum walked in it, submerging our hands, feet etc into the holy river. We visited the the City of Nazareth, the Sea of Galilee to name a few sites. What an amazing experience and memories created! I would highly recommend this tour.

First of all, it was an amazing tour, mainly because of the tourguide. But let's start from the beginning.
The pick-up was on time and the driving to the first stop was without problems. We were first brought to a parking spot where we then went into our final bus with Michael, our tourguide. Then, while driving to Nazareth, our first stop, he told us many facts about the places we passed and with this gave an introduction to the country. Furthermore, he spoke quite a good English and always named us "Ladies and Gentlemens". I would definitely not mind if someone does not do it, this was just the character of Michael. But he also answered our individual questions pretty well and talked with a lot of enthusiasm. His love for Israel could clearly be seen. Something else I liked quite much was how he presented facts: He always said according to (according to the Bible... according to the Catholics...) With this, he spoke very neutral. Maybe this was a reason why we liked the tour this much. It is not pretty much our taste to visite vaste and holy (catholics or orthodox) Churches, but with the comments of our guide it was presented interestingly.
Therefore, I would suggest this tour to you, also because you visit famous places like the city where Jesus was born and the Jordan river. But for sure, it also depends on your taste, whetever you like it or not. For sure, it depends on the tourguide, whetever these churches are presented dry or with emotions.

What I don't like about these big tour companies is the BS shops at gift shops so they can make more money. One starts on a bus, they take you to a distribution site to get on another bus. So, forty minutes to an hour later you are on your tour.

Then you stop at a gift shop. We were told by the guide that some of the passengers were asking about buying gifts - right. No asked to stop in an over priced gift shop with a single men's room and a single toilet for women. A lot of buses were parked here so, they must pay the guides well.

Then we started the tour, the guide k knowledgeable and well spoken.

We stopped at a lunch place and we were given three options, a whole baked, fried fish or a kebab. Average would be a complement $25 per Leeds on or $100nis. This is the only option provided. The guide said it would be an incredible lunch. I would disagree.

Then we went to the Jordan River, which ended up being a huge gift shop. No one on our bus was baptized, so we hung out in the AC in the gift shop for an hour.

I'd round up a group and hire a private driver. These group tours are giant cash grabs, surrounded by minutes of good information.

We were stuck on traffic for a little over an hour but that was beyond anyone’s control. I was expecting to at least be able to dip my foot or at least get near the sea of galilea but not a chance. Also baptism is not a guaranteed option not unless your group has your own priest to do it for you. There is no priests awaiting on site. But this is a MUST experience if you are to witness Jesus’ early life. i honestly didnt feel this tour as compared to ither one. Maybe it was because of the over-an-hour loss we had from traffic jam.

What an amazing tour this was to Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee with our wonderful tour guide Yoav Malachi and driver, Jonathan. Yoav was very personable and knowledgeable of the history throughout the tour. We went to great places and made sure to keep our tour on time and well organized! Thank you Yoav and Jonathan!
