Anjar, Baalbek & Ksara Winery lille gruppe tur | Frokost inkluderet
Beskrivelse
Bekaa-dalen er Libanons historisk tætteste dagstur fra Beirut - og de fleste mennesker kun ridser overfladen af den. Denne guidede lille gruppe tur gør det rigtigt: en spøgelsesby, som de fleste turbusser kører lige forbi, de største romerske templer nogensinde bygget med en guide, der faktisk forklarer, hvad du ser på, og 2 kilometer af romerske vin grotter under Libanons ældste vingård. Tre stop, tre helt forskellige kapitler i samme dal, en inkluderet frokost. Anjar - den eneste overlevende umayyadske paladsby i Levanten, bygget af kalif Walid I og forladt inden for årtier. Baalbek – et UNESCO-verdensarvsted, hvor Bacchus-templet er større end Parthenon. Ksara - grundlagt af jesuitter i 1857, med romerske grottekældre, der forbinder eftermiddagen direkte tilbage til morgenen. Din guide gør forbindelserne, der gør tre imponerende stop til en sammenhængende historie.

Rejseplan
8:30 – afhentning af hotellet Din guide møder gruppen på dit hotel i Beirut og tager østpå på Damaskus-vejen – over de libanesiske bjerge og ned i Bekaa-dalen. Anjar er omkring en time væk.
Anjar – den umayyadske by ingen har sat på deres liste Bygget i begyndelsen af det 8. århundrede af kalif Walid I - den hersker, der også bestilte den umayyadiske moské i Damaskus - og forladt blot årtier senere, aldrig igen besat. Kolonnade gader, et palads med over 40 tårne, en moské, badehuse – alt sammen stadig i stand. Det eneste overlevende eksempel på en komplet umayyadisk paladsby i hele Levanten, og en af de mest undervurderede arkæologiske steder i Mellemøsten. De fleste turgrupper hopper over det. Din guide sørger for, at du forstår præcis, hvorfor de tager fejl.
Sten af den gravide kvinde — skala kontrol før templerne En enkelt kalksten blok, 21 meter lang, vejer 1.000 tons, skåret for 2.000 år siden og aldrig bevæget. Stadig i stenbruddet, hvor det blev forladt. Din guide forklarer, hvorfor den er her – og hvorfor at stå ved siden af den genkalibrerer din fornemmelse af, hvad der venter på tempelkomplekset fem minutter foran.
Baalbek Temple Complex — guiden tjener deres gebyr her Jupiters tempel på Trilithon sten hver vejer over 800 tons - de største klædte sten i menneskehedens historie. Templet i Bacchus, større end Parthenon, næsten helt intakt, det bedst bevarede romerske tempel på jorden. Venus-templet fuldender et kompleks, der tog tre århundreder. Uden en guide er Baalbek overvældende. Med den rigtige, bliver det det mest mindeværdige sted, du besøger i Libanon. Din guide dækker de arkitektoniske, religiøse og historiske lag af Baalbek på en måde, der gør hver kolonne og hver gårdhave fornuftigt.
Frokost i Zahle eller Baalbek – inkluderet Libanesisk mezze og grillet kød - enten i Baalbek eller på restaurantterrasser ved floden i Zahle, Libanons mest berømte maddestination, afhængigt af timingen og gruppens præference. Helt inkluderet.
Chateau Ksara - de romerske huler under Libanons ældste vingård Grundlagt af jesuit munker i 1857 over 2 kilometer af romerske grottekældre - den samme romerske civilisation, du brugte morgenen på at udforske på Baalbek, nu under jorden og aldrende vin. Grotte tur kommer først - gamle tunneler ved en naturligt konstant temperatur året rundt - derefter en smag af Ksara's Cabernet-Syrah blandinger, Blanc de Blancs, og Sunset Rosé. Din guide forbinder punkterne mellem Baalbek og Ksara på en måde, der får eftermiddagen til at føles som en fortsættelse snarere end et helt andet stop.
Tilbage til Beirut – ca. 18:00–7:00 Drop off på dit hotel i Beirut. En spøgelsesby, verdens største romerske templer og gamle vinhuler - Bekaa gjort ordentligt.

Very nice tour, lots to see o good guides who could tell us about the different places we visited. Great Lebanese lunch. Remember to bring a slightly thicker sweater or jacket if you go wintertime.
Amazing tour of Anjar, Baalbek+ lunch and winery tour! The guide was super friendly, the food was amazing and the places breathtaking. Baalbek was a sight to behold. Definitely recommended if you like cultural landmarks (food is culture too 😉) even a tiny bit.
The tour was very nice and well organised! Our guide Hassane was very well informed and took us to an amazing restaurant. The Anjar tour was very interesting, Baalback was incredible and the winery was interesting as well.
Baalbek absolutely blew my mind! I was with Albert who is the best guide ever! And literally the ruins at Baalbek are greater and 100x more impressive than anything in Greece or Italy- what a sight to see. This is a MUST for anyone visiting Lebanon
Thank you so much, Kinga! We’re delighted Baalbek left such a strong impression and that Albert made your day truly special. Your enthusiasm means a lot—Baalbek really is a treasure! We hope to welcome you back soon for more unforgettable adventures in Lebanon!
I took this small-group tour to Baalbek and Anjar with Lebanon Tours and Travels today, and it was such a great day. Everything went so smoothly from start to finish. The team was awesome to deal with before booking—they got back to me quickly and answered all my questions, which made me feel super comfortable. They picked us up from our Beirut hotel right on time, and the whole tour went just as planned. We started at Anjar and then headed to Baalbek. Our guide and driver, Albert, was the best. He’s such a nice guy—really friendly, patient, and knows so much about Lebanon’s history. He made the whole day so interesting with his stories. I loved learning about the Umayyad history in Anjar and the huge Roman temples in Baalbek—they were unreal to see in person. Albert never rushed us and was always happy to take pics for us. Lunch was incredible—a big Lebanese spread in the Bekaa Valley. I’m vegan, and they had so many local dishes I could eat, like creamy hummus, roasted eggplants, spinach pies, and spicy potatoes. It was honestly one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The sites were amazing, and the whole day felt so special. If you’re in Lebanon, you’ve gotta do this tour with Albert and his team. I’ll never forget it!
Thank you so much, Felipe! We're thrilled your Baalbek and Anjar tour with Albert exceeded your expectations—from the smooth planning to the rich history and delicious vegan-friendly lunch. Albert will be happy to know his stories and care made your day memorable. We truly appreciate your glowing recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Lebanon soon!
We had a lovely and intimate tour with Albert! He took me and my new found friend to Balbeek and gave us fascinating stories and information on the history and architecture. Never felt like this was a job with him, more like king lost family with every tour and every day we traveled!
Thank you so much for your beautiful words! Albert truly loves sharing the wonders of Baalbek and making every tour feel like a special journey. We're glad you felt that warmth and connection. Hope to welcome you and your new friend again soon!
The guide and drive was perfect. Very kind, personable and knowledgeable. We loved both guides; Albert and Cherbel. Great guys!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour with Albert and Cherbel. Your kind words about their knowledge and warmth mean a lot. Hope to see you again for more great experiences!
The whole trip exceeded my expectations.. I was collected in time, very friendly guide, and the very informative. Both main visits with a professional archeologist. On top the lunch was excellent. Although hesitant about Ksara, it turned out to be a nice end of the visit to the Beeka valley.
The journey was excellent and the the support from guide Hassan was great! From the very beginning the tour was picked with information. We were lucky with the weather and guide Hassan transfered a super atmosphere!
This was a superb tour. Natasha is an archaeologist and brought many insights from her expertise. She always had something interesting to say as we went along, and the meal was superb too.
