What To Expect

Hop inside your air-conditioned coach at your central Tel Aviv hotel and set off on your full-day trip to discover some of Israel’s ancient port cities and coastal highlights.

As you travel, listen as your guide talks of the region’s ancient history. Hear about your first destination, ancient Caesarea, where the remains of a grandiose port city built by Herod the Great, line the Mediterranean shores.

Visit the Caesarea National Park to see the timeworn ruins of Herod’s harbor, the Roman amphitheater and other relics, and learn how the port was named after the Roman emperor Caesar Augustus.

Continue to Haifa, Israel’s third largest city, situated between Mt Carmen and golden Mediterranean beaches. Hear how this picturesque city is home to the headquarters of the Baha'i faith, and view the magnificently terraced Baha'i Gardens, topped by a gold-domed shrine to Bab, the faith’s founder.
Travel on to Rosh Hanikra in the Achziv Natural Reserve, where the sea has carved beautiful caverns from the white cliffs. Admire the turquoise-water-filled grottos and with luck, glimpse the loggerhead turtles and bats that frequent this protected area.

Next, continue to Acre, an important port-city in ancient times. Hear how its Hebrew name of Akko means ‘until here,’ reflecting its location at the furthest point of the land of Israel, and learn about its Greek, Roman, Crusader and Ottoman roots.

Explore some of the archaeological treasures in the UNESCO-listed Old City, including the Crusader underground tunnels used by the Knights of St John. Then, stroll around the bustling Old City Market to browse the stalls selling spices, herbs and trinkets.

Perhaps snap up souvenirs (own expense) here and then travel back to Tel Aviv, where your trip ends with a hotel drop-off.

Four places you shouldn't miss.
Peggy_R, Mar 2024
This was an incredible trip. Each part could have been a complete site seeing adventure of its own. Our guide was delightful. Once I got used to his accent he was a wealth of knowledge. I have so many pictures from this trip! It's amazing.
Great tour !!!
Maria_D, Oct 2023
Aviva our guide was very excellent, she walked with us on all the sites and always accounted for the people in her group. She was very detailed in explaining what was next , the history of the place or site and when to come back to meet up. I wish Aviva was our guide for the other tours we joined in through this tour company.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
We are delighted to hear that Aviva provided you with a wonderful and excellent tour experience.
Good tour guide
Anne_C, Sep 2023
Our tour guide Avi Shetel was great. He told us a lot about the history and current situation in Israël, very interesting. He is a good and humourus storyteller.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Really appreciate you sharing your immense satisfaction with Avi Shalev. He deserves your praise for his professional efforts.
So many places to see and experience
Ashwin_R, Sep 2023
Itamar our guide and Itamar our driver from Bein Hari made this tour a fun experience! He is quite witty, knew fun facts about the various places we went to (it was a packed tour)! Would highly recommend them to others looking to take this tour

This a great and sincere expression of gratitude for your praise-worthy guide and driver Itamar and Itamar. They deserve your praise for their professional efforts.
Unique coastal destinations
Melinda, Sep 2023
Itamar, our guide, was fantastic; imparting information and personal stories with a sense of humor. Caesarea was amazing - what a place for a palace! Haifa and the Baha’i Gardens offered beautiful views, the cable car ride to the grottos was a delightful, unexpected experience (I can still hear the crashing of the water in the caves!) and the citadel at Acre was fascinating. An enjoyable departure from the typical tourist destinations.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
This a great and sincere expression of gratitude for your praise-worthy guide, Itamar. His efforts are sensed and felt by all who tour with him.

Larisa_S, Aug 2023
We had a wonderful time at this tour with Aharon as our guide. His in depth knowledge combined with his sense of humor made for a fascinating tour. It’s a bit long with quite a few stops along the way in extremely warm weather, but quite interesting! Thank you Aharon for a memorable trip!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
We are thrilled that you had a wonderful time on our tour guided by Aharon. His expertise and humor indeed create a unique and engaging experience.

Great trip with good variety. Loved the Grottos at Rosh Hanikra!

Average tour
Josh_M, Jul 2023
Some great highlights of the day but overall not the best tour. Acko was disappointing- tour guide took us to see his ‘friend’ make a copper bracelet, after he took us to his ‘friend’s’ restaurant to eat lunch. Felt a little weird
Response from Host, Jul 2023

Response from Host, Jun 2023
Great and sincere feedback. Martin sure is worthy of your praise for his efforts.
Great tour!!! A lot covered in one day!!
Joyce_h, May 2023
Jam packed day of touring up North!!! Bus picked us up at our hotel at the exact time given and we were taken to location to change to our respective buses for our tour. Bus was brand new, comfortable and spacious. Avi our tour guide was informative and knowledgeable. Our first stop was Caesarea's National Park and the history was so interesting!!! Then off to the Bahai Gardens for some photo ops; only able to photograph from above or below. We did not enter gardens, but I knew that we wouldn;t. Next, Rosh Hanikra and finally the city of Akko. Here we stopped for lunch (Wish they added that to the description) which was an additional cost. Was a long day, but great to do on tour so we didnt have to drive and were able to look at the countryside. Bus driver also wonderful handling turns and traffic with a large bus with ease!!
Response from Host, May 2023
We're thrilled to hear that you had a great time and that the tour covered a lot in one day. We're glad that the logistics of the tour went smoothly, from the punctual hotel pickup to the comfortable and spacious bus. It's wonderful to know that Avi, your tour guide, provided you with informative and knowledgeable commentary throughout the day.
The whole experience was...
Joseph_G, May 2023
The whole experience was a nightmare! The guide Roy was dry and uncaring. For him to save his time to take us for unnecessary stop at a souvenir shop of his choice for one hour and 30 minutes, so he took the whole group on a dangerous and unsafe path, no guard rails walking o the age of the cliff. No consideration for elderly or people with disabilities. On the way back when people started complaining he found another safer path. Nothing in the description of the tour indicated that that there will be any need to take that path.Further more he did not even stop to make sure that everyone made it safely.Beside the point, tour does not worth the money and 14 hr of our day.
Response from Host, May 2023
We deeply apologize for the negative experience you encountered during the tour. It appears that the guide demonstrated a lack of care and attentiveness throughout the tour, as well as a failure to prioritize the well-being and safety of the group. We will thoroughly investigate this matter to gather more information and take appropriate action.
Excellent
CLAUDIA_C, May 2023
Our guide Isaac was amazing, very good prepared. On time, very good organized. Our ride very clean and good driver.
Response from Host, May 2023
Great to receive such positive feedback on your tour experience traveling with Bein Harim. Much appreciated such a review!
Terrible tour guide
Sam_T, Apr 2023
Tour guide led us into a complimentary snack, which turned into a textbook lunch scam. $250 USD later, we knew not to trust him again, and the rest of the day was a write-off. Sights were pleasant.
Response from Host, May 2023
We are most disturbed by what you share here, but without any details, we cannot respond fairly Kindly contact the office email with specific details so that this can be investigated further.
SAD experience
ANUJ_K, Apr 2023
Very clever operator - Bein Harim, Israel! Once your cancellation window is closed he knows you have to take whatever crappy dervice they provide. At the end of the tour I was unceremoniously dumped off at some strange place (not where I had been picked from), had to then take a Gett Cab back. Viator no longer has a customer support mail ID where you can write in and get a response.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
It is difficult to respond when details of when this occurred are absent. It is not evident what was not right with your reservation. Drop-offs are not always at all hotels, but we arrange returns. Not clear why this did not occur unless your hotel is out of town...
Cesarrea
Hassan_K, Apr 2023
The event with tele cabin Most of time were spent on historical parts and 5 minutes for Bahaie Shrine and when I asked the tour leader to do so, she brought very unacceptable reason. I am very upset to travel again on my own again while we could be there at least an hour and wasted to another historical site. I am a returning costumer and wil complain it to customer service too.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
We are most regretful that this was the nature of your experience and frustrating too. Our web and brochure both clearly stipulate only a scenic Overview of the Bahai gardens... No guided tour within. We are sorry you expected a longer time there, but it is not part of the itinerary, and clearly listed as such, mainly due to the time schedule of the whole tour. We are sorry for this disappointment and understand your feeling angry.
See all the sights with knowledgeable guide
Elizabeth_D, Apr 2023
Really enjoyed this tour. Jacob was a very knowledgeable and experienced guide. He seemed to know everything and everyone at each stop. The bus was brand new and quite comfortable. Our driver expertly maneuvered that big bus like it was a small car.y only reason for not giving 5 stars is lunch was too long (but tasty!) which made Acre quite rushed at the end.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
It's great to hear that you enjoyed the tour and found Jacob to be a knowledgeable and experienced guide. Your feedback about the lunch being too long but tasty is duly noted. It's understandable that the long lunch might have made the last stop feel rushed, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Thank you for choosing our tour, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future.
