Lebanon's mountains hide some of the most spectacular waterfalls in the Middle East — and this small-group day trip from Beirut takes you to three of the best in a single action-packed day. Three completely different waterfalls, three completely different landscapes, and just enough hiking to make you feel like you earned every view. Start at Afqa — a powerful waterfall plunging from a cave high in the cliffs of the Adonis Valley, one of Lebanon's most mythologically charged landscapes. Move on to Baatara Gorge — the famous three-bridge waterfall near Tannourine where a 255-metre cascade drops through three successive natural limestone bridges in a phenomenon found nowhere else on earth. Finish at Kfar Helda — a hidden gem of a waterfall reached by a short hike through the Lebanese mountain landscape, rewarding those who make the effort with one of the most photogenic natural scenes in the north of Lebanon.

Beirut is an ancient city with a modern soul, but poor street signage and a rambling layout can make it hard for first-timers to get a handle on it. See the city’s star attractions, including Pigeon Rocks, the Roman baths, Martyrs’ Square, the Al-Omari Mosque, St. George Greek Orthodox Cathedral, and the souks, admire the yachts in Zaitunay Bay, and discover where to head for nightlife on this private tour.

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.

Lebanon compresses thousands of years of history into a remarkably small stretch of coastline north of Beirut. This private day tour captures three of the most remarkable stops on that stretch — each one completely different, each one extraordinary in its own right. Begin at Nahr el Kalb — the Dog River canyon — where the limestone walls have served as the world's oldest billboard for over 3,000 years. Egyptian pharaohs, Assyrian kings, Roman emperors, and French generals all carved victory inscriptions into these cliffs as they passed through on their conquests — creating an open-air archive of ancient military history that is unlike anything else on earth. Then descend into Jeita Grotto — one of the most spectacular cave systems in the world and a finalist in the New 7 Wonders of Nature. End the day in Byblos — one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on earth, where a Crusader castle, Phoenician royal tombs, and an ancient fishing port sit within a single walk.

Some places in Lebanon stop you in your tracks. The Qadisha Valley is one of them — a UNESCO World Heritage gorge so deep and so ancient that Christian monks have been hiding in its cliff-face monasteries since the 4th century. The Cedars of God above it are another — a grove of cedar trees so old that some were already ancient when the Phoenicians cut their neighbours to build the ships that founded Carthage. This private full-day tour from Beirut takes you to both, along with the mountain town of Bcharre — birthplace of Khalil Gibran, Lebanon's most celebrated poet and author of The Prophet — and his intimate hilltop museum, which holds his paintings, manuscripts, and the tomb where he chose to be buried. With a private vehicle and guide entirely at your disposal, the day moves at your pace — lingering at the valley viewpoint, exploring Bcharre's stone streets, and walking quietly among trees that have stood for over a thousand years.

Three of Lebanon's most extraordinary destinations — one private, unhurried day from Beirut. This tour takes you south along the ancient Phoenician coast to Sidon, one of the oldest cities in the world, then further to Tyre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where Roman ruins of staggering scale survive by the sea, before climbing to Maghdouché — a hilltop sanctuary where Christian tradition holds that the Virgin Mary herself once waited. In Sidon you will walk the medieval Sea Castle, explore the world's only soap museum, wander the old souks, and stand in the grand courtyard of Khan el Franj — the Silk Road caravanserai built for European merchants. In Tyre you will walk the length of one of the largest Roman hippodromes ever built and stroll the ancient port before lunch. In Maghdouché you will visit the cave where Our Lady of Mantara — Our Lady Who Waits — is venerated by Christians and Muslims alike.
