Day 5
Caesarea National Park on the Mediterranean is your first stop today, where you'll find the remains of former Roman capital home of Philip the Evangelist, and where Paul was imprisoned and appeared before Festus, Felix and King Agrippa.
Tour the Roman theater, the hippodrome and promenade to the renovated Crusader city. Don't miss the "Caesarea Experience," a fascinating computerized presentation about the city's history.
Then, it's on to Muhraka, the traditional site of Elijah's confrontation with the prophets of Ba'al, with the Carmelite Monastery of St. Elijah.
Continue to Acre, the ancient Phoenician and Crusader seaport (designated by UNESCO as a world heritage site) for a tour of the Knights Halls, the Al-Jazzar Mosque, the bathhouse with its multi-media display and the new ethnic museum, built right into the rooms of the old wall, and the covered markets.
Cross the beautiful Galilee Mountains, stopping at Arbel National Park for an overview of the Sea of Galilee in the late afternoon.
Overnight: in the Sea of Galilee region
