    Lebanon South at one Glance

    Rafe_Y, May 2024
    My guide Wissam picked me up on time after some good communication. He briefly explained the day's itinerary to me and also explained some additional options as I was the only traveler. We then drove to Saida and I visited the castle of Saida with the great harbor view (entrance fee about 4500 LL). Afterwards, we had a quick walk around the Saida souk. Next up was the ruins of Tyre (Sour). The entrance fee here was 400,000 LL. You can take a careful look at this landscape, but there are some animals living in the ruins (mainly lizards, but also snakes). The ruins are impressive, especially as they border the Palestinian refugee camp. My last stop was the church in Maghdouche and the beautiful forecourt. Wissam offered me a break several times and was very attentive and friendly the whole time. At no point did I worry about my safety. Sour and Saida in particular are really beautiful places that are well worth a visit.

    A splendid tour in southern Lebanon

    A splendid tour in southern Lebanon with Mahdi. We visited the ancient sites of Sidon and Tyre. It was an unforgettable experience.

    Great Tour

    Driver picked up from hotel in the morning, we stopped for a coffee on the way to Sidon. There I visited the impressive castle on the sea, which doesn't take long - just a short walk about, there is no information provided about the castle, sadly. Then we walked through the souk (closed for Eid Al-Adha) to the soap museum which was a nice stop, a guided tour, video and stop in the gift shop. After that we went to Maghdouche where there's a church and tower which commands impressive views over the med and surrounding area. Lunch was taken at a clifftop restaurant with an impressive view over the med and coastline. Then it was off to tyre with a guided tour from one of the archaeologists - didn't get to see the whole site, just the main points. The hippodrome is good, must have been really impressive in its day great time, great tour

    Sorprendente y maravillosa

    Muy linda experiencia y conoci lugares increibles. Saida su mercado es miy tipico, las ruinas de Tiro son reliquias que deben cuidar los libaneses y Maghdouche es un espacio religioso unico.
