The Bekaa Valley offers some of Lebanon's most extraordinary experiences — and this small-group guided tour from Beirut brings together the very best of them in one wonderfully varied and thoroughly enjoyable day. A fascinating ancient city, the greatest Roman temples on earth, and a charming wine cellar tour — with a professional guide, a delicious included lunch, and nothing extra to organise.
Begin at the remarkable Umayyad ruins of Anjar — a beautifully preserved 8th-century palatial city that most Lebanon visitors never discover. Continue to Baalbek — a UNESCO World Heritage Site where temples larger than the Parthenon have stood for two thousand years. End the afternoon at Chateau Ksara — Lebanon's oldest winery — walking through ancient Roman cave cellars before a tasting of their finest wines. Lunch in Baalbek is fully included. Your professional guide brings every stop to life in a warm, engaging, and genuinely memorable way.

Umayyad Ruins of Aanjar
Anjar — a wonderfully preserved Umayyad city Arrive at one of Lebanon's most fascinating and most undervisited archaeological sites — the Umayyad ruins of Anjar, the only surviving example of a complete Umayyad palatial city in the entire Levant. Built in the early 8th century by Caliph Walid I — the visionary ruler who also commissioned the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus — the city was abandoned just decades after its construction, leaving it remarkably well preserved. Colonnaded streets, a grand palace with over 40 towers, a mosque, and bathhouses all still standing in the middle of the Bekaa plain. Your guide brings the full and fascinating story of this hidden gem to life — making it one of the most pleasantly surprising stops of the day for visitors who had never heard of Anjar before.
