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.

Lebanon has been making wine for 6,000 years. The Bekaa Valley — sitting at 1,000 metres altitude between two mountain ranges — is where it all happens today. This private day trip from Beirut takes you to three of the valley's best estates back to back: cellar tours, wine tastings, Bekaa Valley views, and an optional lunch in Zahle — the food and wine capital of Lebanon — before the drive home. Three wineries, three completely different personalities. Chateau Saint Thomas — the high-altitude family estate that punches above its weight internationally. Chateau Kefraya — 300 hectares of vineyards and the legendary Comte de M red that puts Lebanese wine on serious wine lists worldwide. Chateau Ksara — Lebanon's oldest winery, founded in 1857, with 2 kilometres of Roman cave cellars beneath it that are worth the drive alone. No wine expertise required. Just bring an open mind and a good appetite.

The perfect introduction to Lebanon — all in one wonderfully complete and thoroughly enjoyable day. This small-group guided tour combines Beirut's most iconic city landmarks with two of the Chouf Mountains' most beautiful destinations, with a professional guide, lunch fully included, and nothing extra to organise. Begin with a guided morning tour of Beirut — Pigeon Rocks and the seafront, the grand Blue Mosque and an ancient cathedral sharing the same square, Roman baths in the heart of downtown, and the historic square where Lebanon's modern story was shaped. Then head into the Chouf Mountains for Beiteddine Palace — one of the finest palaces in the Arab world — and the perfectly preserved Ottoman village of Deir el Qamar, Lebanon's first capital. A mountain lunch included. Your professional guide brings every stop to life warmly and engagingly throughout.

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.

The Bekaa Valley does not mess around. In a single day from Beirut you can walk through a ghost city abandoned by the Umayyad Caliphate 1,300 years ago, stand inside the greatest Roman temples ever built, and finish the afternoon drinking Lebanese wine in Roman cave cellars beneath one of the oldest wineries in the Middle East. Two UNESCO World Heritage Sites and one very good wine tasting — all before dinner. Anjar is the hidden gem — the only surviving Umayyad palatial city in the Levant, built by Caliph Walid I and abandoned after just a few decades, its colonnaded streets and palace walls still standing in the middle of the Bekaa plain. Baalbek needs no introduction — the Temple of Bacchus alone is larger than the Parthenon. And Ksara rounds out the day with 2 kilometres of ancient Roman cave cellars and a tasting of their iconic wines.

Tripoli is Lebanon's most underrated city — a medieval masterpiece of Mamluk architecture, living souks, and Crusader history that rewards every visitor who makes the effort to explore it properly. This guided small-group tour pairs it with Batroun, one of the oldest Phoenician coastal towns on the Mediterranean, for a full day in Lebanon's magnificent north with lunch and all entrance tickets included. A professional guide leads you through the citadel ramparts, two remarkable mosques where Gothic and Islamic architecture meet in the same stonework, an hour in one of the most authentic medieval markets in the Arab world, and a traditional olive oil soap factory. Lunch is at Hallab 1881 — Lebanon's most celebrated dining institution, founded in 1881. The afternoon brings Batroun's charming old town, a 3,000-year-old Phoenician sea wall still standing on the beach, and a refreshing stop at the legendary Hilmi's House of Lemonade.
