Two of Lebanon's most historically rich cities — one day, entirely your own. This private full-day tour takes you north from Beirut to Tripoli, Lebanon's second city and one of the finest surviving medieval cities in the Arab world, before heading south to Byblos — one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on earth and a place where 7,000 years of history sit within a single walk.
In Tripoli you will stand inside a Crusader citadel, step into a 14th-century Mamluk mosque built on the foundations of a Crusader church, wander ancient khans and hammams, and end at the colourful fishing port of El Mina. In Byblos you will explore a Crusader castle built from Phoenician stones, walk the ancient souk, and have lunch beside one of the oldest harbours in the world.
No other group. No fixed pace. Just you, your private English-speaking driver, and eight hours through three thousand years of Lebanese history.
