Description

If it's your first time in Deir el Qamar, or if you've been here before but never explored the town with a guide, now is your opportunity to uncover or rediscover a place rich in history and tales.


On this tour, we will journey back to the era of the princes, unveiling their stories and glories.

Our adventure will start at Deir el Qamar's main square, known as El Midane. Just a short walk from the square, you'll discover three religious buildings that reflect the complex layers of Lebanon's culture and religions.

From above the square, you'll be treated to a stunning view of the town, right atop the Silk Souk and Khan. A few more steps will lead you into the charming maze of pedestrian paths lined with traditional houses, ultimately guiding you to the town's market, where the main attractions are the vibrant people and delicious food.

Together at Deir el Qamar let us experience history, architecture, religion, and cuisine, while enjoying the refreshing mountain air, walkable distances, and the warmth of amazing locals.
