Kiner Galil Resort Unveils Upgraded Summer Attractions Including Bible Quiz and Golan Helicopter Rides
Kiner Galil, a beloved hotel on the shores of the Sea of Galilee popular among religious and ultra-Orthodox guests, is launching a comprehensive summer upgrade inspired by the verse "A new light will shine on Zion." The renovations include infrastructure improvements, enhanced culinary offerings, and enriched cultural programming to provide returning guests with a fresh experience.
The summer highlights feature a private helicopter landing on the hotel’s central lawn, offering guests breathtaking aerial views of the Sea of Galilee and the Golan Heights. On the ground, the resort transforms into an extensive amusement park with 13-meter inflatable attractions, pedal boat pools for children, and an interactive water maze with group water guns. Additionally, an international circus with thrilling stunts and a new show by illusionist and telepath Yimi Alozini will entertain visitors.
A unique cultural initiative this year is the "Great Kiner Bible Quiz," which begins with digital qualifying tests for guests who receive study materials in advance. The top eight contestants will compete in a grand final event featuring interactive audience participation, music, storytelling, and valuable prizes. The hotel’s spiritual and cultural program also includes lectures by prominent rabbis such as Shimon Peretz and Avner Kawas, as well as a personal testimony by Barak Gleeson, a survivor of the Nova party attack who shares his journey of repentance.
Evenings come alive with performances by leading Hasidic and Jewish singers including Ofer Halevi, Shmulik Sukot, and Moshe Klein. The culinary experience has been dramatically elevated under chef Uzi Ben Ezra, with a new international-standard restaurant offering live cooking stations, diverse meat and dairy dishes, and a wide selection of fish recipes, all under strict kosher supervision.
The hotel is also renovating its pool area as part of its transformation into a luxury resort combining comfort, elegance, and family-friendly atmosphere. Management emphasizes ongoing innovation and surprises to ensure guests enjoy every moment. With many rooms already booked, the resort encourages early reservations for a summer filled with new light and unforgettable memories.
