Three of the Chouf Mountains' most compelling attractions — one private half-day from Beirut, back by mid-afternoon. Beiteddine Palace is the most significant 19th-century palace in Lebanon and today the official summer residence of the Lebanese President — three grand courtyards, carved cedar ceilings, and a Byzantine mosaic museum beneath the building that most visitors never find. Moussa Castle is a full-scale medieval fortress hand-built stone by stone over sixty years by a single Lebanese man — one of the most genuinely surprising stops in the entire country. Deir el Qamar is Lebanon's first capital — a honey-stone Ottoman village where a mosque and a church have shared the same hillside for four centuries.

Private vehicle and knowledgeable local driver exclusively for your group. Three stops, six hours, afternoon free. Entrance tickets payable on site.

Beiteddine Palace — the presidential palace of Lebanon Built between 1788 and 1840 by Emir Bashir II — the ruler who unified Lebanon's mountain communities and whose legacy defines the Chouf to this day. Three interconnected courtyards with hand-cut geometric tilework and elaborately carved cedar-wood ceilings. Beneath the palace: Lebanon's finest collection of Byzantine mosaics — floor panels of extraordinary colour and detail housed in an underground museum that the majority of visitors walk straight past. Today the official summer residence of the Lebanese President. Your driver covers the full story of Emir Bashir and the palace's history throughout the visit.
