Best guides in Beirut - If you have any doubts on taking this tour, destroy those and book it. You'll definitely not regret it. It was very professional from the start and I had the best tour guide, Mike. He was very knowledgeable, fun and professional. I feel very lucky to have done this tour with him. Shkran Mike!

Best day of my vacation! - So glad I booked this tour. We visited incredibly beautiful and interesting places. We also had enough time to explore Byblos individually. In addition, the guide was super competent, helpful, perfect English speaking and a very good driver.
Btw, good I didn't listen to my government's travel warning. It is absolutely possible to travel safely in Lebanon these days!!!

A nice cultural day trip - I was picked up by the arranged time and we headed directly to the Jeita Grotto.
First of all: There are two different options (with gratuties and without), I opted the without variant (approx. 17$).
The admission for the Jeita Grotto is 8,8 USD on top. The cave itself is very beautiful, but you're prohibited to take pictures (for safety reasons).
We did have a short boat trip in the caves as well.
Our next stop was Harissa and the Lady of Lebanon monument.
It is one of the most important places for the christian community in asia and in the middle east.
The admission is free, keep in mind that you should wear appropriate clothes!
The last stop was in Byblos, where we also had a lunch in a decent restaurant.
We visited the Byblos Garden with another Tour Guide Yazid, who was knowledges in the phoenician history.
The admission was 4,5 USD.
The garden was a nice spot, afterwards we did a coast walk, which was stunning.
To summarize: The tour was well planned and our guide Hassan did a great job, so we felt comfortable all the time.
Give it a try!
I can recommend to take some USD with you, as a lot of sides and restaurants don't accept electronic payment.

Great time, nice places, wonderful guide - Albert is a really nice guy, great communication skills and warm hospitality. We had such great time at 3 stops, ask him if he can reserve the best table at byblos on lunch.

Exceptional Beirut experience with Albert - Had a great tour here seeing the caves and Hareesa for a first timer in Lebanon. Make sure you ask for Albert because he really made our trip special. Funny guy, great knowledge and great English - we had banter all the way through and was very accommodating to our obsession with taking photos everywhere! Thank you Albert if you ever read this.

Great Tour. Well Recommended! - We had a great tour and I must say our tour guide Albert made it special. He was interesting, caring, and rich in historical knowledge so it made the experience great. I went with a friend, and it was our first time in Lebanon. I’d do it again!
