- O258GAjustinp0 contributionsUnforgettable Baalbek Tour with Amazing Guides – A Must-Do in Lebanon!I had the absolute pleasure of being guided to Baalbek by two incredible individuals who made my experience in Lebanon unforgettable. Starting from my hotel at the Royal Tulip in Beirut, Albert, the driver and guide, went above and beyond in every possible way. He was the kindest gentleman I’ve ever met—so knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in ensuring I had an enriching experience. Albert spent the entire day answering all my questions, no matter how small, with remarkable depth and insight about Lebanon’s history, culture, and landmarks. His guidance and advice were invaluable, and I cannot imagine experiencing the beauty of Lebanon without his expert and sage knowledge. Not only did Albert and the team make sure I felt completely safe and cared for throughout the journey, but they also went the extra mile to show me unique souvenir shops, ensuring I got the best deals and didn’t miss a single highlight along the road. Their attention to detail and commitment to creating a perfect experience were unparalleled. Beyond being incredible guides, these two were genuinely good-hearted people with whom I felt an instant connection. I walked away not just with amazing memories but with friends for life. I cannot recommend this tour and these exceptional individuals highly enough. If you’re visiting Lebanon, this is an experience you absolutely must have.Written 10 January 2025
- Sandaru0010 contributionsBaalbek and Anjar VisitI had the pleasure of touring with Albert, and I must say he is an exceptional guide! His professionalism, combined with a warm and friendly attitude, made the experience truly memorable. Albert's explanations were clear and thorough, adding depth to every sight we visited. Highly recommend him for anyone looking. I highly recommend this tripWritten 18 December 2024
- SaeedAli9140 contributionsTour was amazing and worth every penny! Albert was great!My wife and I visited Lebanon in APRIL 2024. Due to the illegal bom**ng of the Bequaa Valley region from the country south of Lebanon, almost no travel agency were offering guided tours of the region except for Lebanon Tours. Our tour guide Albert was a gem. He was extremely welcoming and friendly. He was able to answer any questions we had about almost anything! We were running short on time because its was a pretty extensive tour, but he made sure to squeeze in a few stops I really wanted to see even though we were tight on time. Next time we have a family trip to Lebanon I will definitely reach out to them and ask for him specifically. The cedar forests we went to were stunning. The hike itself wasn't that rigorous and actually pretty easy. Baalbek was magical, our local guide who showed us around the temple was very knowledgeable and did a thorough tour. The next stop was Chateau Ksara which we did a delicious wine tastings and tour of the vineyard. We finished the tour with dinner in the cute town of Zahle, very quaint. I would recommend this company for any tours while in LebanonWritten 14 November 2024

Baalbek was very large and cool to see! My guide Albert was also very knowledgeable and helpful along the way! I recommend this trip to anyone visiting Lebanon.Written 17 September 2024
- mohammedaO7453LU0 contributionsWholesome day-trip with a knowledgable guide!The trip encompassed everything I wanted to experience: learning about Lebanon’s history from Fadi, who is a wealth of knowledge, to visiting multiple sites within the same trip and taking in the beauty and depth of Lebanon. Fadi is a really well-versed tour guide who went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable, and he even stopped at a sweets shop on our way back just because I talked about trying ka'ke knafe! It is a really great tour with a knowledgeable tour guide, I highly recommend it!Written 13 September 2024
- pauliQ4010UA0 contributionsAn excellent tour.The tour arrangements were completed without any problems whatsoever. The pick-up was punctual and Hassan, the guide/driver, was extremely knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. His depth of knowledge of the history of Lebanon and of the sites we visited was exceptional. The tour was everything I had hoped for and the outcome was lifelong memories and a much better understanding of the complexities of the Levant. Highly recommended.Written 9 September 2024

- daria_pitulkina0 contributionsI’m impressed and delighted! Highly recommended to take this tour!Such a wonderful trip it was!🫶🏻 First, I’d like to mention the professionalism of the guide. Hassane contacted me after booking and informed about the time of the start of the tour. He was very punctual and came on time. Also, I’d like to mention the cleanliness of his car. It was super comfortable and pleasant to move along the day by his car. Second, the itinerary itself. The day is organized really well. In the beginning, we visited the ancient city Aanjar, then the winery and after that proceeded to Baalbek. I was impressed by every location. In the end of the day we’ve had a very nice and delicious lunch. P.S.: thanks to Hassane, I’ve enjoyed the fresh figs picked from the fig tree at one of the stops. Many thanks for an awesome day!Written 25 August 2024
- Timomotimo0 contributionsGreat tour to Baalbek and Jeita, professional serviceHassan the tour guide was very professional, on-time, and knowledgeable too. Bookings through Hussein was prompt, informative, and also accommodating to changes in my schedule. Baaalbek was truly a spectacular place and worth the long drive from Beirut. Would love to go on tours with Lebanon Tours and Travels again next time I visit the country!Written 23 August 2024

- mayabX2321WQ0 contributionsAmazing tour of Lebanon with Albert!Had an amazing experience with Albert touring Byblos, Harissa, and the grotto. Albert explained every bit of history along the way which made the experience even more special. I really felt like I did a ton in the perfect amount of time and highly recommend this tour to anyone!Written 27 July 2024
- stephenhX4444LA0 contributionsReal life experience and insightsHasan took me on a tour of the Jeita grottos, Our Lady of Lebanon, and the town of Byblos. The sights were wonderful of course, but it was Hasan’s company and conversation that made the trip really special for me. I learned so much about Lebanon and its history through his ideas and his own journey. Definitely worth booking a tour with him, and he does custom tours around your needs and desires.Written 26 July 2024

The Chouf is one of the most preserved and historically rich areas in the country. With picturesque villages, lush mountains, and the largest cedar reserve in Lebanon, you can immerse yourself in the natural beauty this incredible region has to offer.
Depending on which village you want to start your trip from. the Chouf is around an hour's journey from Beirut. A good starting point is the charming village of Deir El Qamar..
Follow the southern coastal highway towards Saida. Just before Damour, exit the highway towards Beiteddine and follow the signs.
