Tripoli is the second largest city in Lebanon. The Beautiful city combines the ancient and the modern. Our objective is the old souks in the heart of the city. Small shops of all kind. Craftsmen, traditional pastries, fishermen, dressmakers, carpenters, painters and a number of artificial artistes gathering in a 500 years old open air market trying to sell their products. Uptown is the Crusades fortress . All civilizations and armies seized this strategic spot to control the city and its surroundings. The sweets palace dates back to 1881 when a family of talented Chefs decided to start a big sweet factory in the city. It is not only Baklava but a wide variety of tastes and pastry arts displayed in front of you for your savor and your personal palate… the Chef is there and happy to explain about every single flavor. An average ride to this small lovely Phoenician city of Batroun; the tourist’s street is such a lovely place as well as the old Phoenician wall defenses and port.

It was an excellent experience and a very fun time with the knowledgeable driver. He knew the places and roads as we all know the ABCs. The vehicle was extra clean and comfortable, and the tours extremely smooth. We highly recommend this chauffeur service.

My friend and I ended up going on 4 tours with Luka and each day was excellent. We managed to see most of the country and I absolutely recommend seeing Lebanon with him! He is incredibly knowledgeable and will tell you all kinds of stories, facts and history. He's reliable, communicative, professional, accommodating and also super fun to be around. He goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and I honestly cannot recommend him enough.

I recently visited Baalbek, Qadisha Valley, Sidon, Tyre, Chouf Mountains, Byblos, Batroun, Tripoli and enjoyed the tours organized by Lebanon Tours and Travels.
