As Christmas approaches, the entire village of Mi'ilya adorns itself with red Santa hats, twinkling lights, and tall fir trees.
As one of two Christian villages in the Galilee (or is it three? We’ll find out on the tour!), Mi’ilya offers a wonderful, European-style atmosphere where the spirit of the Christian holiday comes alive within its beautiful alleyways.
We will begin our tour with a special Christmas tea and a local treat, then set off to explore the sparkling, festive streets. We’ll discover the village’s unique holiday customs and admire the colorful, decorated homes. We will visit the Chateau du Roi Restaurant—situated in the heart of an ancient Crusader fortress, which conceals secrets from antiquity beneath its surface—and stop by the Greek Catholic Church in the village center. It’s a chance to experience an atmosphere that feels like a trip abroad—all just a short drive away.
Price: 130 NIS per person, including refreshments.
Suitable for adults and interested children; not suitable for strollers or baby carriers.
