I went to Jeida grotto, Byblos and Bartroun with Hassan. He picked me up at 12.30 and we got back at 7pm, including an ice-cream stop at the best spot! At $160 it was expensive but saw part of Lebabon outside Beirut which i would not have been able to access on my own. I declined the option of a local guide at Byblos as there was only 1/2 hour until closing and that was fine as Hassan is very knowledgable. He helped me scramble down into the impressive ruined grave. I also enjoyed chatting with Hassan about the reality of living in Lebanon. The grotto was amazing!

We are a couple from France who did the tour with Ahmad.
This was our first one on our week’s trip.
Ahmad was a considerate guide and it you want information he will give it to you or if you prefer to have a nap he will make you feel comfortable no matter what.
Lebanon is a beautiful country and the people are even more amazing.
We had a few stops and ate some local manaeesh. Everything was great. Because of this great day we booked another day .
The guides are professional, on time and the driving was very safe.The price also is good value for money. We highly recommend this company.

We’re delighted to have chosen Lebanon Tours & Travels as our introducer to this beautiful country! Booking was easy and very flexible.
Our guide, Hassane Mrad, was very punctual, anticipated every forthcoming need (e.g. cold water was appearing as if by magic on both rather hot days and long walking minimised, where possible). Very knowledgeable, friendly, yet very discreet and immensely caring! Not only he showed us the tour attractions, but also introduced to the various delicious local specialities along the way - he seemed to know everyone in Lebanon and radiated such a joie de vivre!
We would definitely be back, as a couple of days in this magnificent country was simply not enough!
