Nazareth and Sea of Galilee Shore Excursion from Haifa Port

What your day looks like

This Nazareth and Galilee tour is for cruise ship passengers docking in Haifa. The tour is offered every time a cruise ship docks in Haifa port. After disembarking and meeting your guide you’ll be driven north to Jesus’ childhood home, Nazareth. There you will visit the magnificent Church of the Annunciation and tour the 1st-century grottos under St. Joseph’s Church. The tour leaves Nazareth and passes Mary’s Well, en route to the Mount of Beatitudes. On the way, you’ll go through Kfar Kanna (Cana). Tour the church built on the Mount of Beatitudes and take in the stunning views of the Sea of Galilee below. Next, the tour takes you to Tabgha, the site of the Church of the Loaves and Fish where Jesus fed the masses. Continue to Kfar Nachum (Capernaum) which features prominently in the First Testament. The tour takes a lunch break at a local restaurant before continuing to Yardenit. This traditional baptismal site on the River Jordan is visited by Christians from across the globe. If we have time, you can get baptized at Yardenit before we return to Haifa and your cruise ship.
