Come join us on this fun and educational experience. See you there!

Everyone visiting Lebanon should do this tour. It was super informative. You really get an in-depth understanding of the country and its history, internal and external relations. Karim is also a fantastic storyteller and just has so much knowledge. Can't recommend it enough.
