Private Baalbek, Ksara Winery & Chouf Cedars Tour from Beirut

Three of Lebanon's most iconic experiences — Roman grandeur, ancient wine, and a sacred cedar forest — in one extraordinary private day from Beirut. This tour takes you east into the Bekaa Valley to stand among the greatest Roman temples on earth at Baalbek, then to Chateau Ksara — Lebanon's oldest winery, founded by Jesuit monks in 1857 — for a guided cellar tour through 2 kilometres of ancient Roman cave tunnels and a tasting of their finest wines. From there, a scenic mountain road cuts south through the Lebanese ranges to the Chouf Cedars — a UNESCO-protected grove of ancient trees, some over 1,000 years old, at the heart of the Shouf Biosphere Reserve. Three UNESCO-linked sites. Three completely different landscapes. One private vehicle, one knowledgeable English-speaking driver, and nine hours that take you from the valley floor to the mountain summit through the full depth of Lebanon's extraordinary heritage.
