Nature, culture, history and lots of fun

Caesaria
The city of King Herod which glorifies his patron - the Roman Empire. This well-preserved Roman-style city complete with a theatre, a hippodrome, a bath house, and much more is situated next to the sea and gives you the feeling of what was like to live 2000 years ago. Another interesting spot is the harbor city, where we can see more from the crusaders' time and sit next to the sea and relax in one of the restaurants.
Haifa
The capital of the North, with plenty to do and see. The Baháʼà Gardens offer a magical viewpoint on top of the Mount Carmel. We could go back to biblical times and to visit the place where Elijah made his biggest miracle. We can go through the forest of Mount Carmel itself or visit downtown Haifa, where you can see, smell and taste the benefits of a multicultural city. This stop is a must!
Acre
If you want to go back to the times of the crusaders and feel what it was like to be a knight back then, let's go to Acre! The completely preserved underground city from the time when the crusaders controlled the Kingdom of Jerusalem is a UNESCO heritage site. During these times, Acre was one of their main cities. Back up onn the ground level, you can walk through an Ottoman city and go through the Shuk (market), visit the harbor, and walk on top of the city walls!
Rosh HaNikra
One of the most impressive sites of Israel is the Rosh Hanikra grottoes.
The visit starts with a beautiful viewpoint of the Mediterranean coast and moves on to a short but thrilling cable car descent to the grottoes. Come for crystal-clear blue water and marvel at the everlasting dance of the sea and the mountain.
We can visit the rocky coastline and if we're lucky, feed some hyraxes.
Nazareth
For any tourist, but especially for Christians, Nazareth is a must stop. The Basilica of the Annunciation is where Mary was informed by the angel Gabriel that she will bare The Lord's son. The church is a very spiritual and unique place. In the city there are many other churches and small local market. We can take advantage of the vicinity to Kafar Cana and visit the Wedding Church, where Jesus performed his first miracle and transformed an ordinary water cask into fine wine.
Sea of Galilee
200 meters below sea level lies the beautiful Sea of Galilee. Fed by the water of the Jordan river, the lake takes you back to biblical time. There are many options for any visitor - follow Jesus's footsteps, bathe in the lake water, take part in some water sport activities, or just take a short walk and enjoy the view.
Golan Heights
Welcome to our Wild West, where you have more cows than people! Thousands of years ago it was a valley, but a massive volcanic eruption made it into a basaltic plateau that watches over the Jorden Valley and the Sea of Galilee. It's the northeastern border of Israel from where you can see Syria!
Safed
The city from where the famous Kabala originates.
It is one of the holiest cities in Israel, with many visitors who come for a blessing or just to stroll through magical narrow alleys.
There are lots of Judaica shops in the artist market and a strong feeling of spirituality in the air.
Hula Valley
A heaven for bird watchers and photographers.
This is the only big swamp in Israel, and there are lots of animals you can see from a very close distance by walking on wooden floating path above the water.Â
