Nazareth is the childhood home of Jesus. It adjoins the Sea of Galilee. It has many quaint houses. These days, the majority of the population are Muslims, but many Christians also live here. In nearby Capernaum, the ruins of the old synagogue are said to be built on the home of St Peter, of whom Christ said "on this rock I shall build my Church." The Sea of Galilee is in the northern section of Israel, we had a wonderful time, especially following in the Shoes of the Fisherman

We started our trip with Orion our tour guide, he had such a beautiful smile, very charming, very kind and gentle, approachable and friendly, gave us plenty of helpful advice. I feel bad though that I wasn’t able to give him some gratuities because I’ve been using my card to pay everything.
I’d definitely recommend this trip. All parts of the tour was great but I especially enjoyed seeing the Sea of Galilee up close and personal, plus, the baptism at Jordan River.
Just a bit of a reminder,
You need to book someone who would baptize you in advance, it’s about 500 usd but if you weren’t able to book like me or on a tight budget, you can ask your fellow travelers to baptize you just like what I did. I rented for the tunic and towel, about 15 dollars, I didn’t have any shorts so I bought some shorts for 25 usd so I suggest you prepare ahead of time, bring a suit or something to cover your private parts because the tunic is very thin and once you arise from the water, it’s a show for all lol.
We had lunch at a Kiboot not sure if I spelled it correctly. This is a very unique experience because not everyone can do this, you usually have to arrange it in advance and ask for their permission.
The rest of the tour activities are good.

We paid $106 to go on this tour. We met others on the tour who paid less. Either way, the tour guide (Haya) passed an envelop around at the end of the tour, and I reluctantly gave 40 sheckles considering what I paid for this tour. Then before departing the bus, Haya asked for additional money for the bus driver. I nearly gagged! My friend refused to pay anything, and just thanked Haya, to which she replied: “Yes, thank you, thank you, thank you, but where is your money?” He was embarrassed and immediately stepped off the bus and began to walk away. I could not believe the behavior of these people where money was concerned! In fact, we were totally shocked at how many people in this country working in the transport sector were trying to unethically and unscrupulously get money out of us. It even happened in a seafood restaurant in the Tel Aviv port and with a taxi driver named Joseph Cohen. As soon as they heard our Western accents, they saw dollar and euro signs. This focus on scamming visitors out of their hard-earned money is a dealbreaker. All that praying they do on Friday and Saturday? Cho! Be ye warned!

I don’t think the tour guide has anything to do with the amount of places or time he has to spend in the presentation!! All do I think is really good but i strongly recommend the company to re arrange the time and places seen on this tour otherwise good experience just need to be more patient and understanding that we are on vacation. Suggest les rush more quality time

Our day in Galilee/Nazareth was fascinating, made more so by our guide Riki, who was also our guide on an earlier tour. What we saw was just amazing, but Riki brought depth to the experience with her knowledge and experience. Well organized, effortless for us. Great experience,well worth it.

We had a tour with Bein Harin to Nazareth, Galilee sea and Cafarnaun, the experience was not so pleased, our guide Dina, unfortunately didn't speak a good english, what made the tour bad, despiye that she spent more time in a local shop store instead to at the holy places.
