Top Beirut Spring Break

Skip the self-drive dangers and relax with a designated driver at the wheel as you check off two UNESCO World Heritage Sites and a winery on this action-packed tour. Immerse in the Bekaa Valley’s rich history as you explore the Roman ruins of Baalbek and the 8th-century Islamic city of Anjar with local experts. After a restaurant lunch, discover the Chateau Ksara winery.

Lebanon has been producing wine for over 6,000 years — longer than France, longer than Italy, longer than almost anywhere on earth. The Bekaa Valley, sitting at 1,000 metres above sea level between the Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon mountain ranges, is where that ancient tradition lives today. On this private full-day tour, you will visit three of Lebanon's most celebrated wineries — Chateau Ksara, Chateau Kefraya, and Chateau Saint Thomas — for guided cellar tours and wine tastings that reveal why Lebanese wine is earning serious attention from critics worldwide. This is not a bus tour. Your private vehicle, your group, and your own guide mean the day moves at your pace — lingering longer where the wine is exceptional, pausing for the mountain views, and finishing with an optional lunch in Zahle, the undisputed food and wine capital of the Bekaa Valley.

Let your guide be the designated driver while you sip, swirl, and slurp to your heart’s content on this door-to-door day tour of the cellars and vineyards of Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley. Learn about the rich history and covetable flavors of Lebanese wine with tours and tastings at three different wineries: Château Kefraya, Château St. Thomas, and Château Ksara.

Escape the bustle of the city on this full-day wine tasting tour from Beirut, which takes you into the heart of the scenic Beqaa Valley.

Tours include a visit to the caverns of Chateau Ksara.

With thousands of years of wine-making history, Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley is among the country’s top wine-tasting destinations.

Take your taste buds on a journey around some of the Lebanon’s best drinking haunts on this private wine tour from Beirut. Visit iconic wineries of the Beqaa valley, where the fertility of the soil explains the variety of vine yards and the high quality of the wine produced.

Step beyond Beirut and into one of the ancient world’s most spectacular chapters. On this small-group day tour through Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, you’ll stand among the colossal Roman temples of Baalbek — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-preserved Roman ruins on earth — explore the layered Byzantine and Umayyad history of Anjar, and raise a glass at a family-run Bekaa Valley winery in a region that has been producing wine for over 6,000 years. With a maximum of 15 guests, this is not a bus tour. It’s an unhurried, personal journey through Lebanon’s most historically rich landscape, led by a knowledgeable local guide who brings every stone and story to life.

Hike in the morning, Roman temples in the afternoon, wine underground at the end — this private day trip from Beirut hits three completely different experiences that have no business being this close to each other. And yet here we are in Lebanon, where a UNESCO cedar forest, the greatest Roman temples on earth, and 2 kilometres of ancient wine caves are all within a single day's drive. Start with an easy 45-minute hike through the Maaser el Shouf Cedar Reserve — ancient trees, mountain air. Cross into the Bekaa Valley and stand beside the Stone of the Pregnant Woman — a 1,000-tonne limestone block that was never finished and never moved — before entering Baalbek, where the Temple of Bacchus is larger than the Parthenon and the Temple of Jupiter sits on stones heavier than anything a modern crane can lift. End the day at Ksara — Lebanon's oldest winery — walking through Roman cave cellars before tasting wines that have been made here since 1857. A day that earns its tired feet.

Discover the ancient winemaking traditions of Lebanon during this private wine tasting tour to the Beqaa valley. Learn about the mystery of wine, with vines growing as far back as 4000 years. Then, enjoy tastings of local wine varieties at three different wineries, followed by lunch at a local restaurant. This tour is great to get a feel for the wines of Lebanon.
