Sea of Galilee
- Meet your tour guide at your hotel in Nazareth (or elsewhere as to be agreed) and start your tour.
- Drive to the same mountain on which The Lord gave his famous sermon and that became the new Mt. Sinai, as he renews the Covenant with The Entire Nation of God. It is Mt. Beatitudes - a wild area next to Capernaum where Jesus made his statement to mankind: “You are the salt of the earth" - Matthew 5:13, giving you the Great Reason for his endless love.
- Visit Church of Fish and Loaves Multiplication, a place with a long history that early Christians identified as being the place of one of the miracle mentioned in all four Gospels. It is the place of the beginning of Jesus's ministry when he called Peter and his friends to be fishermen of men. Stand in front of the renewed church and discuss what does this event mean for us and then enter the church to see the famous 5th-century mosaic.
- Go to St. Peter Primacy Church. Any beginning shall have an end but any end is also a beginning: Jesus shows up to His disciples early in the morning after His resurrection to meet Peter and ask him: "Do you love me?" - A question directed to each and every one of us.
- Drive to Capernaum to walk through the ruins and synagogue used by Jesus to bring His message to humanity. Stop by the House of Peter and remember the many events that took place in Capernaum.
- Make your way back through Magdala - a tiny fishermen town and stand in front of the exact same 1st-century synagogue to absorb the reality of the days of Jesus on earth.
- A unique boat ride on ride will take you along the shore of this wonderful lake. Enjoy the natural view and the various
- Continue to River Jordan (Yaredenit) and stop by the same river Jesus was baptized. You also have the chance to dip in its waters.
