# Private shore excursions from Haifa

> Private shore excursions from Haifa cruise port with Ilya Pevzner: Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee, or Haifa, Acre, and Rosh Hanikra, timed to your all-aboard. Licensed guide, private 8-seat vehicle, port pickup.

Haifa is the northern port, and the north is Galilee. From the terminal Nazareth is under an hour, the Sea of Galilee ninety minutes, so a shore day can cover the Church of the Annunciation, Capernaum, the Mount of Beatitudes, and the Jordan River and still be back with time to spare. Guests who prefer to stay near the coast take Acre’s Crusader city, the Baháʼí gardens, and the Rosh Hanikra grottoes instead.

Ilya meets you at the Haifa cruise terminal after passport control. The return to the ship is planned around your all-aboard time, not around a shared coach. The day runs in English, German, Russian, or Hebrew.

A private vehicle also means the day can bend: a longer stop at Tabgha, a skipped souvenir shop, a late lunch by the lake.

Yes. Nazareth, Capernaum, the Mount of Beatitudes, and the Jordan River baptism site fit comfortably into a standard eight-to-ten-hour port call.

### What is the alternative if we do not want a long drive?

Haifa, Acre, and Rosh Hanikra stay within an hour of the ship: the Baháʼí gardens, the Crusader halls of Acre, and the sea grottoes on the Lebanese border.

### Where is the pickup?

At the Haifa cruise terminal exit after passport control. Ilya confirms the exact spot by WhatsApp the evening before the call.

### What is the cancellation policy?

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start, and a full refund if weather forces a change.
