First we will visit Tzipori. The sophisticated ancient northern city is the site of one of Israel’s most interesting archeological sites. It has wonderful mosaics that tell a story of life nearly 2,000 years ago.
The we shall visit the amazing Agamon Hula. You may have visited before but we are taking a special tour as the birds come home to roost. We will start with a tour around the lake in our bus and then board the ‘Safari Wagon’ for a very close encounter with the birds. This tour will be at dusk and they tell us it is just a splendid sight to see all the birds coming down for some rest and sleep.
