Salamis Cruises - Lebanon Excursion
Optional Excursion in Lebanon - Byblos, Harissa,
& Jeitta Grottoes
Adults 12+ Children (2-12 years)
Your day's excursion in Lebanon
begins with a tour of the city of
Beirut, a city with venerable and long
past, eminent present and a bright
future. Downtown Beirut is
completely rebuilt and the visitor
will be fascinated by the
combination of traditional and
modern architecture.
The next visit is to Jeita
Grottoes, the famous six
kilometre labyrinth of natural
galleries on two levels with
stalactites and stalagmites. We will
continue on to Harissa for a
visit to the magnificent statue of
the Lady of Lebanon with its
Cathedral in a Phoenician boat
shape, from where the view of the
city of Beirut and the bay is breathtaking.
Last but not least is the visit to
Byblos, the oldest
continuously inhabited city in the
world. The ambience of the Middle
Ages is vivid as you walk through the
narrow streets of the ancient city,
while the colours and bustling
atmosphere of the old souk (market)
will enthuse any visitor.
*Please take in to
consideration that if your passport
bears an entry stamp of Israel, you
will be refused entry to Lebanon.
