Beirut - 8:30 AM — Departure from Beirut
Your guide will meet you at your hotel in Beirut and travel north through the Dog River valley. The canyon walls here are etched with inscriptions from Egyptian pharaohs, Assyrian kings, and Roman emperors, leading you toward Jeita Grotto. - Jeita Grotto - Explore one of the world’s most magnificent cave systems — a UNESCO tentative World Heritage Site and a top-five finalist in the New 7 Wonders of Nature. These two interconnected limestone caves extend over 9 kilometers beneath the Lebanese mountains. The upper cave is explored on foot, featuring a stunning cathedral of stalactites and stalagmites up to 8 meters tall, while the lower cave is navigated by a silent electric boat along an underground river through chambers of remarkable natural beauty. This is one of Lebanon’s most visited and unforgettable attractions.
- The Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon - At the summit of the cable car, visit the iconic bronze statue of Our Lady of Lebanon, standing 8.5 meters tall at 650 meters above sea level, with arms outstretched toward the Mediterranean below. As one of the most recognizable religious monuments in the Middle East, the shrine is surrounded by the Maronite Basilica and nearby churches, forming one of Lebanon’s most significant Christian pilgrimage sites. Your guide will share the spiritual significance and history of this cherished Lebanese landmark.
- Téléferique Harissa - Board the renowned Harissa Téléférique cable car at the Jounieh seafront and ascend 650 meters above sea level to the mountain sanctuary above. This is one of the most thrilling and photogenic experiences in Lebanon. The aerial views over Jounieh Bay, the sparkling Mediterranean, and the Lebanese mountain ranges during the ascent are among the most breathtaking in the country.
- Byblos Castle - Arrive in Byblos, a city continuously inhabited for over 7,000 years and one of the oldest cities on earth. The 12th-century Crusader castle was constructed from recycled Phoenician and Roman stones and contains layers of civilization within its walls — Neolithic settlements, Bronze Age temples, Phoenician royal tombs, and Roman colonnaded streets are all visible at this single site. Byblos introduced the world to its alphabet, and its name gave us the word Bible. Your guide will bring 7,000 years of history to life.
