Private Guided Jeita, Harissa & Byblos Tour | From Beirut

The stretch of Lebanese coast north of Beirut is one of the most historically and naturally extraordinary corridors in the Middle East — and this private guided tour takes you through its finest moments in a single eight-hour day. From ancient inscriptions carved into cliff faces by Egyptian pharaohs to underground caves that took millions of years to form, from a mountaintop shrine above the Mediterranean to the street of one of the oldest cities ever inhabited. Jeita Grotto reveals what water and limestone can create over millions of years — a finalist in the New 7 Wonders of Nature that stops visitors in their tracks. Harissa lifts you 650 metres above the sea by cable car to one of the most recognised religious monuments in the Middle East. And Byblos — continuously inhabited for over 7,000 years — closes the day with a Crusader castle, an ancient fishing port, and a stone-paved souk where history is still being lived rather than merely preserved.
