What To Expect
Jeita Grotto
The Jeita Grotto, a system of two separate, but interconnected, karstic limestone caves which have formed over millions of years, is the longest cave complex in the Middle East. It is located 300 metres above sea level and has a height difference of 305 metres. The Jeita upper cave has an overall length of 2,130 metres and contains a great concentration of a variety of crystallized formations such as stalactites, stalagmites, columns, mushrooms, ponds, curtains and draperies. The lower gallery which has an overall length of 6,200 metres is located 60 metres below the upper gallery. It is traversed by a smooth underwater river and a lake.
Byblos, one of the oldest Phoenician cities. Inhabited since Neolithic times, it has been closely linked to the legends and history of the Mediterranean region for thousands of years. Byblos is also directly associated with the history and diffusion of the Phoenician alphabet.

5.00We had an absolutely fantastic day out, all three locations were amazing. Great day trip and took us approximately 9 hours from start to finish. Some bad communication between the organiser and the driver to start with to do with location on hotel and timing, but after we set off, it was great! Our driver Ali was very knowledgeable about the sites and gave us enough time at each destination to explore my ourselves. He was a safe driver and was well connected to the tour guides/ticket offices at each destination. All three locations do not include entry which is not clear in the purchase of the tour until you receive the confirmation. But it's not expensive, yet you should have cash to pay in. Overall a fab experience and a definite must do!
