Sea of Galilee Tour - The Waters of Miracles
This unique tour focuses on the Sea of Galilee region and key events from the public ministry of Jesus. We begin by driving through the Armageddon Valley, passing Tel Megiddo and the city of Afula, as we make our way to the Sea of Galilee, a region central to Jesus' life and ministry.
Along the way, we pass by Mount of Transfiguration, where it is believed that Jesus was transfigured alongside Moses and Elijah. This significant site offers a moment for reflection on one of the most profound events in Christian tradition.
Our first stop is the Mount of Beatitudes, where Jesus delivered the Sermon on the Mount, one of His most famous teachings. This location, surrounded by natural beauty, provides a peaceful setting for spiritual reflection.
Next, we visit the Church of the Primacy of Peter, a place of great significance where Jesus appeared to His disciples after His resurrection. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to touch the waters of the Sea of Galilee, connecting with the sacred waters where many key events took place.
We then explore the archaeological site of Capernaum, including the house of Peter, one of the central sites of Jesus' ministry. Following this, we visit the Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes, commemorating the miracle where Jesus fed thousands with just five loaves and two fish.
During the tour, you can also opt to enjoy a spiritual boat ride on the Sea of Galilee, where Jesus walked on water and calmed the storm. This serene boat ride offers a unique opportunity to connect with the sacred waters where many miracles occurred.
Our next stop is Magdala, where we visit the synagogue where Jesus preached, deepening our understanding of His teachings.
Finally, we return to Jerusalem, passing through the Jordan Valley and the ancient city of Jericho, one of the oldest inhabited cities in the world with significant biblical history.
