What people are saying about Caesarea

The whole experience was great! We enjoyed very much this trip. Dani, our guide was the best. He made us feel very comfortable and managed to accommodate everyone's wished. We had plenty of time to take pictures. We did not feel pressed to do any shopping. Everything was perfect. The trip started in Caesarea, than we visited Haifa where we saw the Ba'Hai garderns from above and from the bottom. The gardens can be visited only by booking a tour with a Ba'hai guide. After that we went to Rosh Hanikra. The experience was spectacular. We also saw the border with Liban on the Golan Height. The trip ended in Acre. We had lunch and after we visited the templar castle and the bazar.

This was the trip of a lifetime for my daughter and I on my first visit to Israel and her home. The guides communicated clearly about pickup location and detailed itinerary. The assigned tour guide was entertaining and concerned about our group and individual experience. He took time to learn a little about all of us and our home lands. His humor and country knowledge was impressive and I can remember historical events because of the colorful background stories that he shared with out group. I can't wait to use this service again in Israel!

In general it is a great day trip and I would love to have a little bit more time in Haifa, we were just on the car with ~15 minutes at the viewpoint. Caesarea, on the other hand, can be shortened a bit.

Very good guide, she told short and concise and ensured a smooth course of the day. We have seen a lot, recommended!

Best opportunity for everybody! The guide perfect and kind. Fantastic programs and view.
