We will start the tour at Jaffa, the old port city. We will skip through history from the Egyptians to Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp through the greeks, Jonas the Prophet, Peter the apostle, and Napoleon; afterward we'll drive through Tel Aviv and see the Bauhaus and Yitzak Rabin square.
We will then drive to old Caesarea and visit the old Harrods port and the Hippodrome, where Roman hubris met Jewish valor.
We will then head to Nazareth to the Basilica of the Annunciation.
We will end the day with wine and dinner at the authentic Diana Restaurant in Nazareth.
