SEA OF GALILEE DAY TOUR
Sample Tour with Israel Private Guide to Christian sights around the Sea of Gallili.
We will start with Kursi National Park where the miracle with the demon that drown with the pigs into the Sea Of Gallili.
The Gospels tells how Jesus heals the madman, after sailing across the Sea of Galilee and landing in the Country of Gadarenes (Gader, south east corner of the lake). He drives out the devils into a herd of swine, who "ran violently down a steep place into the sea and were choked in the sea".

Capernaum was the center of Jesus activities in the Galilee and his town during that time. Jesus taught in the local synagogue. It was also the home town of the apostles Peter, James, Andrew and John, and the tax collector Matthew.
Seven Springs is the meaning of Tabha.Those springs are Salty and not good for farming thats why Tabha is a Fishermen town Roman era.
The seven springs that emerged at Tabgha (today only six have been discovered) produced water warmer than that of the Sea of Galilee. This warmer water helped the production of algae, which in turn attracted the fish. Fishermen thus have frequented this area for thousands of years.
