Immensely enjoyed this tour. Driver/guide was very knowledgeable and explained a lot about the history of Lebanon and the history of the sights especially. Even though, I was the only one who booked the tour; the tour still took place. This is a beautiful part of Lebanon which should not be missed. I would definitely book again with this operator!!
Thank you, you are always welcome!
