Anjar, Baalbek, and Ksara Day Trip from Beirut

This tour with Nakhal was amazing. It takes you to the breathtaking temples of Baalbek which is an absolute must if you visit Lebanon. The tour guide was very friendly and did a great job. The included lunch in Zahle was also very good.

Awesome experience. I highly recommend this agency. Very nice tour guide, amazing sights and yummy Lebanese lunch.

Awesome places with a very good guide. Also the driver was very good. Everything on time and smooth.

One of the best tours that we have ever been on! Breathtaking sights and an expert guide, and well planned and managed by Nakhal. We were quite a small group (4 people) on this tour, and most of the sights we visited were quite empty so this meant our experience was probably quite unique and we did benefit from a quite personalised tour. Our tour guide Natasha was amazing - her passion and knowledge of architecture and archaeology shone at Aanjar and Baalbek, and she was positive, good-humoured and friendly. She also had a lot of knowledge about her country and shared many facts with us about Lebanese culture, history, and current events. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to Nakhal's offices, and then went to Aanjar. It is a longer drive out east (about 1h30), but very scenic with the mountains and valleys. Aanjar was very peaceful and it was fascinating to learn about the history of the Umayyads. We then drove on to Baalbek, via a quick stop at the largest stone in the world (really!) At Baalbek Natasha continued to give us a very informative tour, and plenty of time for photos. Needless to say, Baalbek is awe-inspiring! We had Lebanese mezze and mixed grill for lunch at a quiet spot in Zahlé. After lunch we went to Ksara. The tour here was quite quick - possibly 10-15 minutes, followed by a tasting of wines. Worth it to experience the history of Lebanon's oldest winery! We were taken back to our hotels in Beirut for about 4pm. We had an amazing day, and feel very lucky to have seen these historical sights with a brilliant tour guide, and we'd really encourage others to go on this trip!

Excellent day trip with a good guide the timing was perfect and Lunch delicious highly reccommende if you are short of time

I had a problem with collection based on one word in the hotel description I was then given 10 minutes to arrive or miss the tour.

I chose this tour by mistake thinking it was a small group and was too late to change. BUT I was really pleased by the efficiency and professionalism of guide and driver that made it so interesting, enjoyable & efficient. Kudos to driver who drove backwards to get us out of a traffic gridlock and the guide was incredibly knowledgeable.

A full day travelling by coach, where the guide filled the journey with informative detail about the places we were visiting and the history of the area as we journeyed from Beirut. Anjar was magnificent, Baalbek was amazing. It was a privilege to visit these ancient monuments and imagine how life once was. The tour organisation was efficient, the coach journey was safe, the lunch stop was very good. If you are in Beirut or planning a visit to the region I recommend this agency.

Loved every minute of this day trip. The visit to Anjar was a nice opener, not too long and great preparation for the beauty of Baalbek. The guide was great, providing plenty information, and the bus was good, picked up from hotel in a van and transferred to the main bus at the company office. Baalbek is amazing, such a large site and very well preserved. The temple of Bacchus is outstanding, the highlight of my trip to Lebanon. Lunch came after which was very good, lovely setting and vegans were well catered for - too much food really! After lunch was Ksara which was a good change of gear, not strenuous and good to get out of the sun for a while.

Everything was too good. I enjoyed the company and got to know amazing people. The organization was successful.
