Our tours are both beautiful and affordable, so that as many people as possible can experience the lands of the Bible.

Why It Matters

Because the Bible comes alive in all these places.

Sailing the Sea of Galilee. Walking the streets of Jerusalem. Climbing Mount Sinai. These aren’t just places—they’re awe-inspiring experiences that forever shape our faith.

When travelers from all generations and backgrounds come together in Christ, something beautiful happens: a traveling family is formed. Laughter and tears. Worship and shared meals. These are the moments that stay with you forever.

Our trips are centered on Christ and His Word.

We love when all generations study scripture together in special places like Galilee and Jerusalem, Philippi and Corinth, Ephesus and Patmos, the Nile River and Mount Sinai.

Because, along with special places, the best part of our trips is the people.

Tabgha Tours

Tabgha Tours was founded in 2013 by Andy and Cindy Nash. Andy and Cindy have devoted their lives to building biblical community—whether the college classroom, the church congregation, or the gentle hills of Galilee. Dr. Nash is the author of “SAVED: The Story of God & Us, as well as the forthcoming “Ministry of Jesus” Adult Bible Study Guide (Spring 2027).

As Tabgha Tours has grown, we’ve been joined by other excellent tour leaders, along with certified local Christian guides in all the special places we travel. And our pastor-led tour program provides an opportunity for pastors and members to experience the lands of the Bible.

Currently Cindy Nash and other team members coordinate logistics for our upcoming tours.

Because God's story is also your story.

What does Tabgha mean?

Tabgha—meaning “seven springs”—is a location on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee. Tabgha is where the disciples fished before they were called to follow Jesus.

Like the disciples, each of us are called by Christ to release what we most want—and trust in Him.
