Step into biblical stories with a private boat ride on the Sea of Galilee and sacred sites tour

A private day trip from Tel Aviv takes you through Nazareth, Tiberias and the Sea of Galilee with a driver-guide who speaks your language, visiting the Church of the Annunciation, Church of the Multiplication, Capernaum and the Yardenit baptism site on the Jordan River. The itinerary is customizable, and you can arrange a baptism at Yardenit at your own expense if you coordinate it in advance. Pickup and drop-off from your Tel Aviv location are included; the tour runs ten hours and modest dress (covered knees and shoulders) is required to enter the holy sites.

Step-by-step itinerary

The Experience

The day starts with pickup from your Tel Aviv hotel or location, then the drive north takes you through the Jezreel valley to Nazareth. There you'll visit the Basilica of the Annunciation and the Church of St. Joseph with your guide, who can explain the sites in English, Spanish, French or German depending on which option you booked. Because it's a private tour, the pace and time spent at each stop is yours to set — if a particular church or view holds your attention, you stay longer.

From Nazareth the route moves toward the Sea of Galilee, passing through Kfar Cana and its Wedding Church, then continuing to Capernaum and the Mount of Beatitudes. You'll travel along the shore of the Sea of Galilee itself and visit the Church of the Multiplication, the site where Jesus fed the 5,000. The air-conditioned vehicle means the long drive between sites stays comfortable, and your guide handles the navigation so you're free to watch the landscape change from the Galilee hills down to the water.

The final stop is Yardenit on the Jordan River, the baptism site where the tour typically ends around 4:15 p.m. If you want to be baptized, you'll need to arrange that directly with the Yardenit site in advance and cover the cost yourself — the tour company doesn't organize the ceremony, but the location and timing are built in. The drive back to Tel Aviv takes roughly two hours, arriving in the evening.
