Lower Galilee Jewish Private Day Tour from Jerusalem

Start your private tour to Jewish Galilee at the shores of the Sea of Galilee and close by Tiberias to explore the excavations from the first century. Stop at the nearby graves of ancient Jewish philosopher Maimonides and Rabbi Meir Ba’al HaNes. Continue with your personal guide who can explain how some of the Christian sites of interest, such as the Capernaum and Bethsaida are also relevant to Jewish heritage. Next visit Kibbutz Ginossar and the Yigal Alon Museum. View the restored boat on the shores of the Kinneret and the exhibition explaining the story of the pioneers who first came to develop the area. From here make a stop at the Kinneret cemetery to see the graves of the famous poet Rachel and song writer Naomi Shemer. Finally take a short drive to the Zippori to explore the beautifully preserved mosaics depicting unusual images in over 20 colors.
