Overview
The area of Jesus’ activity is from northern to central Israel. It lies between Nazareth and the Dead Sea.
By coming to Galilee, you will see the same views, walk the same ground, and visit the places where Jesus was during His earthly life. Here, he found his closest disciples among the locals.
You will see the place of their village, the church on the site of the house, where Jesus was living and healing people, and the synagogue where he could preach. Mensa Christi: the table stone on which they eat, places visited by all four Popes visited Israel until today, and more significant places.
Like Popes, many pilgrims are visiting these famous places to see where Christianity began and spread over the world. I am very known experienced guide.
I love to show our country. Many people listen to me weekly on the radio or online.
, and you can join my community of listeners and tourists. You are not my tourists only, you are my guests.
