Beirut - 9:00 AM — Departure from Beirut
A professional guide and driver will pick up guests from their Beirut hotel and travel north through the Dog River valley. The canyon walls here are etched with inscriptions from Egyptian pharaohs, Assyrian kings, and Roman emperors. The guide will begin narrating Lebanon’s history even before the first stop. - Jeita Grotto - Explore one of the world’s most stunning cave systems, a UNESCO tentative World Heritage Site and a top-five finalist in the New 7 Wonders of Nature. Two interconnected limestone caves extend 9 kilometers beneath the Lebanese mountains. The upper cave is explored on foot via an elevated walkway, showcasing stalactites and stalagmites up to 8 meters tall, formed over millions of years. The lower cave is traversed by a silent electric boat along an underground river, gliding through chambers of breathtaking geological beauty. The guide will explain the millions of years of geological history behind each formation, transforming a visual spectacle into an educational experience that a self-guided visit cannot match.
- Téléferique Harissa - Transition from underground to above the clouds in one morning. Board the renowned Harissa Téléférique at the Jounieh seafront and ascend 650 meters above sea level, with Jounieh Bay sprawling below and the Lebanese mountain ranges ahead. The aerial views during the ascent are among the most photographed in Lebanon. The guide will highlight landmarks along the coastline as the cable car climbs, making the journey both informative and awe-inspiring.
- The Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon - At the summit, visitors will stand before the iconic bronze statue of Our Lady of Lebanon, 8.5 meters tall at 650 meters above the sea, with arms outstretched toward the Mediterranean. This is one of the most visited and recognized religious monuments in the Middle East, surrounded by the Maronite Basilica and nearby churches. The guide will explain the profound spiritual and cultural significance of Harissa to Lebanese Christian heritage and Lebanon’s identity as a nation where faith and landscape are inseparable.
- Baatara Gorge Waterfall - The day’s most dramatic highlight and one of the most remarkable natural sights in the Middle East. The Baatara Gorge Waterfall near Tannourine is a unique geological phenomenon: a 255-meter waterfall cascading through three natural limestone bridges, carved over millions of years by the Balaa river into the Jurassic limestone of the Lebanese mountains. Standing at the viewpoint and watching the water disappear through each bridge into the gorge’s darkness is a rare travel moment that no photograph can fully capture. The guide will explain the geological processes behind this extraordinary formation, detailing how the limestone dissolved over millennia to create a triple-bridged gorge that continues to intrigue geologists today.

After a day of geological wonders and spiritual beauty, the ancient port of Byblos is the perfect place to relax and dine. -
