Bus
From Akko, head to the Akko Central Bus Station. You can walk there from the Old City by heading south towards the main road, and then turning left onto Ha-Hagana Street. Once you reach the bus station, look for buses heading to Nazareth. The journey takes approximately 45 minutes. Make sure to check the bus schedule for the latest departure times.
Shared Taxi
If you prefer a quicker option, you can take a shared taxi (also called 'sherut') from Akko to Nazareth. Head to the main road outside the Old City, and look for shared taxis heading towards Nazareth. They usually leave when they are full, so you may have to wait for a short time. The ride should take about 30 to 40 minutes depending on traffic.
Walking and Public Transport
For a more adventurous route, you can walk to the Akko train station, which is located about 20 minutes south of the Old City. From there, take a train to Haifa and transfer to a bus heading to Nazareth. This option may take longer, around 1.5 hours total, but it offers scenic views along the way.
