Beirut is unlike any other city in the Middle East — a place where a Roman bath sits beside a French Mandate clock tower, where a grand mosque and an Orthodox cathedral stand metres apart, and where a bullet-scarred Civil War hotel overlooks a gleaming Mediterranean marina.

Your expert local guide brings the city's layered history — Phoenician, Roman, Ottoman, French, and modern — to life at every stop, from the iconic Pigeon Rocks of Raouche to the ancient Roman Baths buried in the heart of downtown.

Some places deserve a whole day to themselves. Baalbek is one of them. This focused private day trip from Beirut takes you straight to the greatest Roman temple complex ever built — no extra stops, no filler, just Baalbek done properly — and gets you back to Beirut in six hours. The Temple of Bacchus alone is larger than the Parthenon and almost entirely intact after two thousand years. The Temple of Jupiter stands on stones heavier than anything a modern crane can lift. Before you even reach the temples, the Stone of the Pregnant Woman — a single limestone block weighing 1,000 tonnes still lying in its ancient quarry — sets the scale of what you are about to see. This is one of those places where the photos do not prepare you. Nothing does. You just have to go.

Three of Lebanon's most significant natural and spiritual destinations — underground, mountaintop, and mountain hermitage — in one private day from Beirut.

Jeita Grotto: a UNESCO tentative World Heritage Site and New 7 Wonders of Nature finalist. Harissa: the cable car to 650 metres above the Mediterranean and the iconic shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon. Annaya: the hermitage of Saint Charbel — canonised by Pope Paul VI in 1977, the first Middle Eastern saint of the modern era, who spent his final twenty-three years in complete solitude in a stone cell on a mountain ridge. Private vehicle and knowledgeable English-speaking driver throughout.

South Lebanon is the part of the country most first-time visitors skip — and the part experienced Lebanon travelers consistently say deserves more time. Sidon: a 13th-century Crusader sea castle, the world's only olive oil soap museum, a living medieval souk, and a Silk Road caravanserai. Tyre: a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the Al-Bass complex — triumphal arch, colonnaded necropolis street, and a Roman hippodrome built for 20,000 spectators.
