Rejseplan
8:30 - Afrejse fra Beirut Din guide møder dig på dit hotel i Beirut, og du leder mod nord, der svinger gennem Dog River-dalen - dens kanjonvægge udskåret med inskriptioner efterladt af egyptiske faraoer, assyriske konger og romerske kejsere - mod dit første stop ved Jeita Grotto.
Jeita Grotto – Libanons naturlige vidunder Stig ned i et af de mest spektakulære hulesystemer i verden - et UNESCO-tilfældigt verdensarvsted og en finalist i de nye 7 naturunder. Jeita Grotto er et netværk af to indbyrdes forbundne kalksten huler, der strækker sig over 9 kilometer under de libanesiske bjerge. Den øverste hule er udforsket til fods, afslører en katedral af dramatiske stalaktitter og stalagmitter, nogle tårn over 8 meter høj. Den nederste hule er navigeret med båd langs en underjordisk flod, glider stille gennem kamre af ekstraordinær naturskønhed.
Hoteller i nærheden af Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon Ride Harissa kabelbanen op ad bjerget for at nyde en fantastisk udsigt over Jounieh Bay og den libanesiske kyst, før du ankommer til den ikoniske bronze statue af Vor Frue af Libanon, der står 8,5 meter højt på 650 meter over havets overflade. Et af de mest anerkendte religiøse monumenter i Mellemøsten, helligdommen tiltrækker pilgrimme og besøgende fra hele Libanon og den arabiske verden. Udsigten fra terrassen er fantastisk.
Udforsk klyngen af historiske kirker omkring helligdommen - herunder den maronitiske basilika af vor Frue af Libanon og Melkite kirken i nærheden. Sammen danner de et af Libanons vigtigste pilegrimskomplekser, der repræsenterer landets dybe kristne arv og dets tradition for religiøs sameksistens.
Ankomme til Byblos - kontinuerligt beboet i over 7.000 år og en af de ældste byer på jorden - og begynde på korsfarernes slot bygget i det 12. århundrede fra stenene i gamle fønikiske og romerske templer. Indenfor udfolder sig et lag efter et lag af civilisation: Neolithiske fundamenter, bronzealderens templer, kongelige fænikiske grave og romerske ruiner, alt sammen inden for et enkelt arkæologisk område. Din guide samler den ekstraordinære historie om en by, der gav verden sit alfabet, og hvis navn gav os ordet "Bibel".
Vandre gennem den charmerende gamle souk i Byblos - stenbelagte stier linet med håndværksværksteder, antikke forhandlere og smykkebutikker, der specialiserer sig i Phoenician-inspirerede designs. Et perfekt sted at browse eller hente en souvenir før frokost.
Frokost i Byblos – valgfri Nyd en afslappet frokost på en af de restauranter ved vandet med udsigt over Byblos fiskerihavn - frisk libanesisk mezze, grillet fisk og skaldyr serveret med en af de smukkeste havneudsigt i Libanon. En velfortjent pause før dagens sidste stop.
Afslut din tid i Byblos ved sin gamle fiskerihavn - en af de ældste havne i verden, der stadig bruges i dag af lokale fiskere, som det har været i årtusinder. De farverige træbåde, middelalderens bymure og det sparklende Middelhavet gør dette til det mest fotogene sted i Byblos og det perfekte sidste minde om dagen.
Tilbage til Beirut – ca. 4: 30–5: 00 Drop af på dit hotel i Beirut efter en dag, der tog dig fra jordens dybder i Jeita, til højderne i Harissa, til de gamle kyster i en af de ældste havnebyer i verden.

Had a great trip today visiting Jeita Grotto, Harissa and Byblos. Albert was our guide. He knew a lot about the history of the sites and gave us helpful pointers where to visit during free time. Everything ran smoothly. Would definitely recommend.
I was picked up punctually and our guide was kind to pick up my girlfriend from another location. We spend enough time in each location and Hassan was great with explaining about Harissa. We chose to stay in Byblos longer and not return to Beirut, and he gave us very good tips and recommendations in terms of restaurants and what to do with our time. We definitely recommend this tour!
Hassane is really nice and takes time to explain all you need to know. Everything was super smooth. Great tour and really great guide!
The tour was amazing! I had a wonderful experience with my guide, who was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. The Jeita Grotto was absolutely breathtaking, and the old town was definitely a must-visit. Thank you for making my experience unforgettable! I’ll definitely be back again. Highly recommended!
It was a really great and friendly day, with lots of nice conversations. I especially enjoyed Jeita Grotto, Our Lady of Lebanon and Byblos. The places were impressive and interesting, but what I valued most was talking to the guide about everyday life in Lebanon and how people are coping with the situation here. It gave me insights that you wouldn’t get from reading about the country online. Unfortunately, because of the current situation in the country, I was the only tourist who booked the tour, so it ended up being a private one. I really enjoyed the day and would definitely recommend the tour.
We had an amazing day with Mr Albert. He was on time to pick us up, was super friendly and knowledgeable and was very patient with us and our neurodiverse kids. It was captivating and interesting to listen to Mr Albert as he told us about the various places we visited: Jeita Grotto, Harissa and Byblos. The van was clean and air conditioned and it was only the 5 of us. I would highly recommend this trip!
Our tour guide was Mr Albert, we spend 8 hours going to Jeita Grotto, Harissa and finally Byblos. He was explaining everything thoroughly and we learned a lot. It was such an amazing experience overall and I recommend him 100%.
We had such an amazing day on this tour! Byblos, Harissa and Jeita Grotto were all absolutely stunning, and the itinerary was very well organised with enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Our tour guide was exceptional—so friendly, welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable. You could tell how passionate they were about Lebanon’s history and culture, and they shared so many interesting facts throughout the day that made every place even more meaningful. They were also happy to answer questions and made sure everyone felt comfortable and included. If you’re visiting Lebanon, I couldn’t recommend this tour more. It’s the perfect way to see some of the country’s most beautiful and iconic sites in one day. Thank you for such a memorable experience!
