A festive vocal concert paired with a tour of the Christian village of Mi'ilya to celebrate Christmas. The experience includes a walk through the village’s decorated alleyways, local tastings, and visits to Chateau du Roi and a Greek Catholic church.

As Christmas approaches, the village of Mi’ilya adorns itself with red Santa hats, twinkling lights, and towering fir trees.

We will begin with a festive vocal concert featuring the ensemble Alma – Israeli Female Voices, followed by a tour through the village alleyways, which will sparkle with holiday lights as dusk falls.

Tour guides Amnon Gofer and Ofek Ron-Carmel will lead the tour. It will feature local tastings and insights into the village’s unique holiday customs, including a visit to the local Julia Winery for a holiday toast.
