This Phoenician city, where a triad of deities was worshipped, was known as Heliopolis during the Hellenistic period. It retained its religious function during Roman times, when the sanctuary of the Heliopolitan Jupiter attracted thousands of pilgrims. Baalbek, with its colossal structures, is one of the finest examples of Imperial Roman architecture at its apogee.

Exceptional Baalbek Tour with Outstanding Guide Albert - We had an incredible experience on our Guided Private Full Day Tour to Baalbek. From the moment we were picked up from the airport, everything was seamless. Our guide, Albert, was outstanding. His knowledge of Baalbek’s history was impressive, and his perfect English made the tour even more enjoyable. We felt very safe throughout the journey, and Albert’s passion and expertise truly made our day special. He also took his for a phenomenal lunch! We highly recommend this tour and Albert as a guide for anyone visiting Lebanon.

Go with these people! - Lucy was a great host and tour guide. Giving us the important historical information as well as pointing out things we should be looking out for. She was very considerate and friendly. I felt safe throughout the tour despite recent troubles on the road. There were eight others our tour and it was just the right size.

fantastic Day trip to Anjar and Baalbek - If you are searching for a relaible and knowledgable tour company, stop searching. We had an excellent experience with Lebanon Tours and Travels. On our private full day trip to Baalbek, Anjar and Chateau Ksara our Guide was Pierre. He is an excellent, engaging guide who adds a lot to your experience. The communication was perfect, pick up time on the dot. Restaurant recommended was excellent and low cost.
The trip itself is already worth your whole trip to Lebanon. Anjar is a beautiful historical site of the Umayyads (8th century) in Roman style. Baalbek is superb, one of the best Roman temple complexes in the world. Chateau Ksara at the end was fine, but a bit in a rush (by Chateau Ksara not by the guide).
We really enjoyed this magnificent trip.

Amazing day with rich history and sights - We enjoyed our day with Georgette. She is full of knowledge and information about the history of the places and enthusiastic to share it. It was really a beautiful trip through the mountains and Baalbek and Anjar were amazing. We had lunch at a local place where the food was very different (and delicious) than the usual we had been eating in Beirut. Overall it was a great experience and we would highly recommend it.

Superb day tour from Beirut - Superb travel agency! You always receive replies to your messages within a couple of minutes, they adapt to your wishes and our guide Albert was absolutely fantastic. We swapped Chateau Ksara for the Lady of Zahle and Roman Quarry. Would definitely go for this company again when coming back to Lebanon. Baalbek is definitely a must see when visiting Lebanon!

A very pleasant and memorable tour - We had a great time on this tour with Hassan and Asadour. Everything was well organised, we were the only two people on the tour and it really felt special to us. Mr Asadour was very knowledgeable and friendly, so our visit to the two UNESCO sites, Anjar and Baalbek was extremely interesting and easy to understand. We cannot thank him enough for sharing his knowledge with us and making this a memorable visit. The lunch was fantastic and large. We have visited then the winery wich was pleasant and it was nice to have a tour underground to see how the wine is stored etc. The driver was very friendly and fun and we felt safe every minute of our trip.
