Haifa, Israel Port Reviews

Not much to see at this port, very limited.

followed the crusader's and all their history

Visited Bethlehem and Jerusalem. Excursion was rushed, spent too much time at Bethlehem and not enough time in the Holy City. Only saw wailing wall and Holy Sepulcher.

Did not spend time here, other than to board. It's a hike to the ship!

We took two excursions. The trip to Jerusalem/Bethlehem was very good. The Church of the Holy Sepulcher was crowded and difficult to walk through. The Western Wall (Wailing Wall) is overwhelming. The Church of the Nativity is more ornate than I expected. Our tour guide was excellent. Our tour of Haifa and Acres was disappointing. We drove by the Hanging Gardens, stopping for a photo op. The tour of the underground city in Acres was very interesting and a pleasant surprise. We skipped the rest of the walking tour of the city/shopping; in fact, several people said we didn't miss anything.

We had booked a hotel in Jerusalem the same night we landed in Haifa but took time via taxi to visit the Stella Maris Pilgrimage Centre & got great pictures of the port city from across the road, then whisked off to the beautiful Baha'i Gardens to take pictures from the top, middle, and bottom of the Baha'i Holy Place before taking the train to Jerusalem.

Excellent!!

Nazareth and Jordon River are fantastic

yes, private.

We ended up just taking the shuttle then walking around. Found the beautiful garden and some local cafes. Fun day!
