Description

The Caesarea, Acre and Haifa Private Tour is a full-day journey along Israel's Mediterranean coast, combining Roman and Crusader ruins, an underground medieval city, panoramic gardens, and sea caves in one private trip with a licensed guide. The day starts with a 9:30 hotel pickup and travels north through Caesarea, Acre, Haifa, and Rosh Hanikra at a comfortable pace.

  • Caesarea National Park
  • Underground Crusader City in Acre
  • Acre Old City Market
  • Templar's Tunnel
  • Mount Carmel
  • Bahai Gardens in Haifa
  • Rosh Hanikra Grottoes

The tour begins at Caesarea National Park, where you walk through the remains of Herod's harbor city and see the Roman theater, the well-preserved amphitheater, and the ancient aqueduct beside the sea. From there the route continues north to Acre, where you explore the Underground Crusader City with its halls and tunnels, then surface into the Old City Market filled with spices, sweets, and local stalls. A short walk through the Templar's Tunnel, the low passage that once linked the fortress to the port, adds a medieval note to the day.

The journey then climbs Mount Carmel in Haifa for views over the bay and a stop at the Bahai Gardens, which are seen mainly from the upper terrace. The final stop is Rosh Hanikra near the northern border, where a cable car descends the cliffside to the grottoes and the blue water and white rock of the sea caves below. After the last stop, the tour returns to your hotel in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem, depending on where you are staying. The itinerary is a proposal and can be customized to your preferences.
