JEWISH NATIONAL FUND WESTERN GALILEE TOURIST INFORMATION CENTER

In March 2016, JNF-USA officially opened a tourist information center in the Old City of Akko. The main goal of the Center – which is run by the Western Galilee Now association in cooperation with local tour operators – is to serve as a gateway to the entire Western Galilee for the 2 million tourists arriving in Akko every year.
The information center attracts many travelers taking in the ancient colorful remains of its port city, and guides them to the many tourist attractions in the whole region, this way strengthening the entire area. Getting visitors to see the interior region and to shop, dine, and stay overnight – required the vision of Jewish National Fund. Today, thanks to the information center, more and more travelers are discovering the lush landscapes of this storied region every year, and tourism is fueling new development and empowering the Galilee’s younger residents to put down roots.

The JNF-USA information center also uses its beautiful building to host concerts and performances, events, co-existence gatherings and art exhibitions in the Space Gallery of the center.

The information center is open 7 days a week:

Sun – Thurs: 9 AM- 5 PM
Fridays and holiday evenings : 9 AM- 2 PM
Sat and Holidays: 10 AM- 4 PM
