Perfect Day - 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

Amazing Baalbek & Anjar Tour with Lebanon Tours! - 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!

The beauty of Balbeek - 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!

Worth all 5 stars. - 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.

Great tour of Lebanon - 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.

Breathtaking heritage sites and amazing tour guides - I had an amazing day, the tour was perfect! The heritage sites were breathtaking (especially Baalbek, an absolute must-see since the temple is in so great condition) and the guides were so kind and helpful and could explain so much about the sites in particular and the whole country in general. I would definitely recommend to book this tour, also perfect for solo-travelers. Although I booked the tour only three days in advance, everything went perfectly fine. I was a bit worried the tour might get cancelled because I was the only guest, but it took place anyways and was absolutely worth it.

Very Insightful tour,... - Very Insightful tour, delicious lunch and wine tasting and a friendly tour guide. A visit to Lebanon without a tour to Baalbek is incomplete.
