4-day Lebanon itinerary
Met at Beirut airport and driven into a city that has been destroyed and rebuilt seven times and refuses, on principle, to stop enjoying itself. Beirut was the Paris of the Middle East, then a war zone for fifteen years, and is now something harder to categorise: bullet-scarred Ottoman houses beside glass towers, a Roman bath excavated under a car park, and the best nightlife on the Mediterranean. The evening is yours.
Overnight: 4-star hotel in Beirut.
Over the mountains into the Bekaa Valley. Anjar is the only surviving Umayyad city, an 8th-century trading town laid out like a Roman camp. Then Baalbek, which is the reason to come to Lebanon: the Romans built the largest temple complex in their entire empire here, and the six surviving columns of the Temple of Jupiter, twenty metres tall, are the tallest they ever raised anywhere. The foundation stones weigh 800 tonnes each and nobody has fully explained how they were moved. Finish at Château Ksara, making wine in Roman caves since 1857.
Overnight: 4-star hotel in Beirut.
A day in Beirut itself. The National Museum is the essential stop — its collection was walled in behind concrete during the civil war to save it, and the photographs of the staff doing it are part of the display. Downtown was rebuilt from rubble in the 1990s. The Corniche is where the whole city walks at sunset, past the Pigeon Rocks standing offshore. Ask your guide about the Green Line: the street that split the city in two, and exactly where it ran.
Overnight: 4-star hotel in Beirut.
A transfer to Beirut airport, or on to Damascus if you are continuing overland. End of our services.
