Experience the grandeur of Lebanon's remarkable temples through this guided tour of Baalbek and the Zahle wineries, departing from Beirut. This journey invites you to delve into the depths of classical history and visit three notable wineries.
Baalbek + Zahle Wineries Guided Tour
The adventure begins at 8:30 am when you will be picked up from your hotel in Beirut. Our destination is the beautiful Bekaa Valley, particularly the historical city of Baalbek, known for its stunning ancient temples.
Upon arrival in the celebrated City of the Sun, you will trace the paths of the Phoenicians and Romans through the Beqaa Valley. The highlight will be the exploration of an extraordinary temple complex, where you will admire the magnificence of the Temple of Bacchus, the Temple of Jupiter, and the Temple of Venus, each a true testament to classical heritage.
As you navigate this historic site, fascinating tales about Baalbek will unfold. For instance, you will discover that the temple dedicated to Jupiter houses the largest columns globally. Additionally, you'll encounter remnants of Islamic architecture, such as the revered Great Mosque.
After absorbing the awe-inspiring sights, we will stop at a local restaurant to indulge in a traditional Lebanese meal, featuring a local dish and a refreshing beverage. Energized, we’ll then proceed to the charming town of Zahle for a visit to three prominent wineries.
Within the wineries, you will gain insights into their operations, learn about Lebanese vineyard management, and discover the wine-making process, which has played an integral role in the country’s economy for centuries.
Concluding our journey, we will return to Beirut, with the tour winding down around 6 pm.
