Step by Step

This excursion to Baalbek, Anjar and Ksara from Beirut will take you to three must-see places, each with its own history and beauty, on an unforgettable full-day tour.

You will depart comfortably from your hotel in the city, where a driver will pick you up early in the morning. Accompanied by a professional guide, you will visit Baalbek, a city located in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon.

There you will be amazed by its impressive Roman ruins, including the Temple of Jupiter, the Temple of Bacchus and the Great Court. This is one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the world and will take you back to the time of the Roman Empire.

During the tour, you will pause for a delicious traditional Lebanese lunch, another of the great attractions of this vibrant and spectacular region of West Asia.

Arriving in Anjar, near the Syrian border, you'll tour the stunning Umayyad ruins, which date back to the 8th century. They include a palace, a mosque and a public bath, surrounded by a fortified wall that holds interesting facts about the country's history.

You will also discover the timeless beauty of Ksara, a winery of exquisite wines made from grapes grown in the nearby hills. Here you will have the opportunity to taste various wines and learn about the Lebanese winemaking process.

In addition, the vineyard is a beautiful and peaceful place, ideal for relaxing after a day full of action and culture.

    I joined the small group tour to Baalbek, Anjar and Ksara, and I am glad I did. The organisation was excellent, and the Lebanese lunch was delicious.
