What To Expect
Tripoli
Tripoli, In Arabic: Ṭarābulus, city and port, northwestern Lebanon. It lies on the Mediterranean coast at the mouth of the Abu Ali River, 50 miles (80 km) north-northeast of Beirut. Tripoli is the ancient city that dates back to the Phoenician era, and is one of Lebanon's oldest cities, alongside Byblos, Tyre and Sidon. Forty-five buildings in the city, many dating from the 14th century, have been registered as historical sites. Twelve mosques from Mamluke and Ottoman times have survived. Secular buildings include the “hammam” or the bathing-house, the souks, and the “khans”, that form an agglomeration of various trades.
Citadel Saint Gilles (Qal'at Sinjil)
Overlooking Tripoli city is the imposing Citadel of Tripoli known as Qal’at Sinjil (Saint Gilles), which has been renovated and changed many times during its history. Today the castle’s main features are an octagonal Fatimid constructions converted to a church by the Crusaders, some Crusader structures of the 12th-13th centuries, a number of 14th century Mamluke additions, as well as additions made by the Ottomans in the 16th century. The present state of this huge fortress (140 meters long and 70 meters wide) is largely the result of extensive restoration work by Mustafa Barbar Agha, governor of Tripoli at the beginning of the 19th century.

5.00Great trip to Tripoli and Batroun with Albert yesterday. I really enjoyed the pace that Albert expertly took me through all the best places. It was a great insight to Lebanese history and culture, Albert’s deep historical knowledge enriched the experience greatly. The length of the trip was perfect too. Also, the included lunch was incredible. Sometimes lunch on these things can be risky - this one, amazing. Highly recommend!

5.00I went on this tour today with Albert the tour guide who was fantastic! He is very informative about Tripoli and Batroun. He is also very passionate about the Lebanon so you will be lucky to get him as your guide! We started off our day from our hotel and visited the Citadel and souk at Tripoli. We then went to the lovely town of Batroun where we had a great lunch at the Armenian kebab shop Great day out!!!!

3.00Visited the area on new year's day. Due to international issues, felt that the guide was rushing the day for safety. Overall it was ok, the rainy weather again dampened the day.
