This trip took us to the absolutely magical Baalbek Roman temple site, to the best Lebanese meal we had in our whole trip (at Casino Nmeir) and topped it off with a tasting trip to one of the country's finest wineries. As if this was not enough the ever wonderful City Sightseeing team picked up our luggage from the hotel along with us and time the trip so they could drop us off at the airport in time for our late afternoon flight. Our driver Naseem was punctual, well informed and super courteous. Our guide at Baalbek was amazing (and handy with my phones panorama setting). I picked up several Ksara wines at the airport after being impressed at the tasting (and I am not a winę drinker usually). Of course I also bought some (Ks)Arak to remind me of the fantastic time I and my family had in Lebanon - made so much fuller thanks to Viviane and the City Sightseeing team! THANK YOU ;-)The tour exceeded my expectations! The treatment from the agency is so personal that they made me feel safe as a female solo traveler. They picked me up just where I asked and drop me off the same. The driver and Karla the guide were so nice and attentive, always offering help, water, even their ...
The tour exceeded my expectations! The treatment from the agency is so personal that they made me feel safe as a female solo traveler. They picked me up just where I asked and drop me off the same. The driver and Karla the guide were so nice and attentive, always offering help, water, even their wifi network if I needed to use. I recommend 10/10.The tour is awesome: the whole itinerary was well organized, and the guide Joseph & driver Michelle were knowledgeable and kind.

The tour is awesome: the whole itinerary was well organized, and the guide Joseph & driver Michelle were knowledgeable and kind. On top of that, the lunch was amazing: unlike many other day tours only give you simple fast food (such as only one Sharwama etc.), this one takes you to go to a fantastic Lebanese restaurant. So far, the best Lebanese food I had was this lunch. Highly recommendThe trip was a deal. The guide Carla didn't stop smiling during the 7 h of the tour and seemed like she really cared about our experience. We stopped for an amazing lunch that was 10/10 (but would be good to ask people beforehand if they are vegan/vegetarian etc.). I forgot my earplugs in the car...
The trip was a deal. The guide Carla didn't stop smiling during the 7 h of the tour and seemed like she really cared about our experience. We stopped for an amazing lunch that was 10/10 (but would be good to ask people beforehand if they are vegan/vegetarian etc.). I forgot my earplugs in the car, they found them later that night and sent a driver straight to my hotel. This part of the customer care was so amazing that it made me uncomfortable. I highly recommend the tour. My suggestion is to include at least about 15 min of free time in the Baalbek ruins as they are absolutely world class and the local guide hired by the tour seemed to rush it a bit. :)This was a super fun and educating tour for me. The driver, Ameen, is such a lovely person to go on a trip with, and the guides at Baalbek and Ksara were the absolute best.

This was a super fun and educating tour for me. The driver, Ameen, is such a lovely person to go on a trip with, and the guides at Baalbek and Ksara were the absolute best. I had the time of my life seeing these places and creating the memories I made with the people I met there. You should definitely go on this tour (organized by City Sightseeing Beirut) when you're in Lebanon!My expectations about this day trip were exceeded due to the excellent organization of even the smallest of things. Much appreciated this local guide in this amazing place where several civilizations mergered. Joseph was undisputedly of added value and made this trip very special.
