The upper and lower grottos we visited were spectacular. Not really big though, we felt the great work of nature. We loved the boat ride on the underground river in the lower grotto.
Great value for money. Amazing trip and food

The agency has made the tour despite the difficult conditions that are being experienced in Lebanon with numerous roads blocked by barricades and protesters. Our driver, Ziad, has been fantastic and a great professional. The visits have been very worthwhile. Jeita Grotto is fascinating and Byblos is a beautiful city of 7000 years. Featured mention for the restaurant and the menu (included in the price), usually, on this kind of excursions, meals are usually bad and scarce. Today they have taken us to the Malena restaurant, with amazing views of the old port of Byblos, and we have had a great menu, including traditional Lebanese mezze and grilled fish.
