Description
A 6-hour journey through ancient power and sacred peace
This special tour offers a rare combination of archaeology, religion, and breathtaking beauty – from the Roman port city of Caesarea, once ruled by kings and emperors, to the serene Bahá’í Gardens in Haifa, one of the most remarkable spiritual sites in the world.
🏛️ Caesarea – Power on the Shores
Walk through the ruins of Caesarea, once the grand Roman capital of Judea, built by Herod the Great in honor of Caesar Augustus. Explore the ancient theater, hippodrome, palace, and harbor – all with the sparkling Mediterranean as your backdrop.
Learn how this city was central in Jewish, Christian, and Roman history – where the apostle Paul was imprisoned, where Jewish sages debated, and where empires clashed and ruled.
🌺 Bahá’í Gardens – A Stairway to Serenity
From ruins to paradise – we’ll continue to Haifa, where the Bahá’í Gardens stretch in symmetrical beauty down the slope of Mount Carmel. These perfectly manicured terraces are more than just stunning – they reflect a message of unity, peace, and global spirituality.
Whether you come for the view or for the meaning, the Bahá’í Gardens offer a place for reflection, awe, and wonder.

We really enjoyed having a private tour. Avi was very amenable and had a great wealth of knowledge to share. The pace of the trip is really dependent on your needs and he made sure to be in tune with us.

I can only say that my last trip to VANUATU has regained my faith in human nature and that the country is made of better and kinder people than the rest of the world. I was treated so well and by so many people that I pray I go back soon. From free breakfasts at the “COFFEE TREE CAFE” to a free night at the “BLUE PANGO” Pango road. These people know how to treat travelers in need. God bless them.

Our last day of a spectacular week in israel was spent touring the ruins of Caesaria. If you were King Herod, you had it all— Mediterranean view, multi room palace, hippodrome for racing chariots, and an aqueduct to bring you fresh water for drinking and spa water park! Conclusion? As Mel brooks said, “it’s good to be King!” Our wonderful tour guide and driver Avi, @holylandwithavi , was delightful, informative, and kept us stimulated for hours. Thank you Avi l!!!!! who we highly recommended for touring or private driving all over Israel. Finally he responded to my request to take us to best shwarma in netanya and Friday food market. Left wonderful taste of israel in our mouths even days later back in New York!
