"Like the wise men in Galilee followed the Shepherd’s star, I will follow you, I will go where you go, like your shadow until you reach your destination..."
Galilee, which literally means ‘cylinder’ because of its mountainous landscape formed of green hills and valleys, is characterized by its historical and architectural richness, combining ancient cities with mountaintop fortresses from the time of the Crusades.
The Galilee is of course famous for being the the place where Jesus spent his childhood and much of his early life. Today, this region acts as the country’s green lung, with peaceful rural landscapes full of streams, waterfalls and even the freshwater Lake Tiberias, also called the ‘Sea of Galilee’.
Additionally, the Galilee is a favorite of nature and adventure lovers, where you walk, hike and enjoy extreme sports. It’s also a place to experience the cultural and culinary richness of Israel ethnic minorities such as the Druze or the Circassians who live in harmony on this land alongside the local Jewish and Arab populations.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the Galilee is a magnificent wine region with expanses of vineyards as far as the eye can see, delighting both those who produce and drink wine. The ideal conditions will provide you with the best wines in the country.
