Description
We will start the tour at the invisible border between Modern Tel Aviv and the 3,500-year-old Jaffa. Here, at the Mediterranean shore, we will discuss the endless history of the Holy Land. You will see the famous Rocks of Andromeda protruding from the depth of the sea and hear the ancient Greek Legend, which is even much older than Jaffa itself.
We will continue walking along the shore and visit Jaffa Port, the oldest port in Asia, and visit the famous House of Simon the Tanner, which is over 2,000 years old. It is known for Christian Tradition, St. Peter's prophetic dream which paved the road to the Christian Church.
Then, we will walk along the twisting lanes of the Crusades Jaffa until we reach the highest point of Jaffa Hill. From here, fascinating views of the seaside, Jaffa, and Tel Aviv can be enjoyed. We will continue our walk down the hill to see centuries-old Turkish canons, the famous Crusades Citadel, and finally, the XIII Century Mosque.
