Exploring the Israeli wine scene through its different vintages undoubtedly has its rewards. But visiting the actual wineries – often in some of the most beautiful and unique settings – adds another dimension to the enjoyment. Yet many of these wineries are in such out-of-the-way locations that even the most intrepid traveler can have a difficult time finding them.
Culinary Tours of the Galilee was created with food and wine-lovers in mind, to introduce them to the many gastronomic treasures the Galilee has to offer. After an easy 2-hour drive North from Tel Aviv, one-day tours can include visits to spice emporia, boutique wineries, olive groves, artisanal cheese-makers and bakers, and many more options.
The tours emphasize not only the foods and wines themselves, but also the encounter with the people who make them. For example, preparing a traditional Galilee home-style meal together with an Arab family provides a fascinating bridge into another culture.
Culinary Tours of the Galilee was established by Abbie Rosner, a writer specializing in the multi-cultural culinary landscape of the Galilee. Her articles have appeared in Wine Spectator, Gastronomica and Nextbook, among others. Through the culinary tours, Abbie is able to share her knowledge and love of the Galilee with English-speaking residents of, and visitors to Israel.
