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.

I recently visited Baalbek, Qadisha Valley, Sidon, Tyre, Chouf Mountains, Byblos, Batroun, Tripoli and enjoyed the tours organized by Lebanon Tours and Travels. The day tours are well designed to include essential sites, lunch with local flavors, and some with local guides. My driver/guide Albert is professional and friendly who has made the trip a memorable experience. The tour company is also helpful on many requests including taking you to a PCR test if needed. Lebanon is a beautiful country with amazing history and culture, and this tour company is highly recommended if you get to visit.
