Day 2: Baalbeck – Ksara – Anjar
Breakfast at the hotel, proceed to Baalbeck On this tour you will visit Baalbeck, the largest and most noble Roman temple ever built. It is towering high above the Bekaa pl.ain and its monumental proportions are a sign of the power and wealth of Imperial Rome. The temple is also considered as one of Lebanon’s greatest Roman treasures among the wonders of the ancient world. The Greeks identified the God of Baalbeck with the Sun God and the city is called Heliopolis or City of the Sun. The temple was never built so some huge construction from the Hellenistic project can still be seen. You will stop for lunch (lunch is under own arrangement) before continuing your tour to Ksara for some delightful tasting at its famous winery. Next you will visit Anjar, which dates back to the Umayyad-period and has been excavated only 40 years ago. Here you will be able to get a clear idea of what the town looked like when the Damascus-based Umayyad Caliphs ruled the area.

Day 4: Harissa & Jeita tour
Breakfast at hotel – Transfer to Harissa. Your tour will start with a visit to the magnificent statue of the Lady of Lebanon in Harissa. A cable car trip up to the mountain will make you enjoy the unique and spectacular Jounieh’s bay view. You will then continue to visit the famous Jeita Grottoes, Lebanon’s natural miracle, a striking nine kilometers labyrinth of galleries on two levels. The lower river level offers a unique tour by a small boat past ‘weeping willows’ and gigantic stone flowers. Equally striking is the upper grotto, which you will explore on foot, where monstrous mineral animals crouch in shady corners. The colourful stalagmites and stalactites and the ethereal reflection of the rocks in the clear water of the underground basin enhance the mystical ambience of the caves.
