Step beyond Beirut and into one of the ancient world’s most spectacular chapters. On this small-group day tour through Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, you’ll stand among the colossal Roman temples of Baalbek — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-preserved Roman ruins on earth — explore the layered Byzantine and Umayyad history of Anjar, and raise a glass at a family-run Bekaa Valley winery in a region that has been producing wine for over 6,000 years.
With a maximum of 15 guests, this is not a bus tour. It’s an unhurried, personal journey through Lebanon’s most historically rich landscape, led by a knowledgeable local guide who brings every stone and story to life.

Our guide Hassan was a pleasure to travel with. Our trip was long, but his informative and light communication style made it seem short. We went to Aanjar, Baalbek and ksara winery, and throughout, we had great information and conversation. He drove carefully, and made our trip very enjoyable. His English was flawless.

It was a fantastic day trip. Well planned. Not too long, not too short. Was great to see historical sites in Anjar and Baalbec and visiting winery in Ksara. The highlight of the trip was our tour leader, Hassane. He made the trip fun, was very friendly, caring and at the same time informative. Also lunch was amazing. Overall I highly recommend the tour.

Our driver was kasem, fluent in English and knowledgeable. Despite the fact that it was raining in the morning, but the tour went smoothly and perfect. The local guide in Baalbek was passionate about the place and professional. Thank you Beirut Transfer for an amazing experience.
