Most Lebanon day trips from Beirut head to the same handful of historical sites. This one goes somewhere most international visitors never think to look — into the Jabal Moussa Biosphere Reserve, one of Lebanon's most ecologically significant protected areas, for a two-hour easy hike through mountain terrain that ends at Chouwen Lake. Swimming in summer when conditions allow. Spectacular scenery year-round. One hour from Beirut.
Jabal Moussa — meaning "Mountain of Moses" in Arabic — is a UNESCO-recognised biosphere reserve in the Keserwan mountains, protecting one of the most ecologically diverse habitats in Lebanon. The hike to Chouwen Lake follows easy marked trails through Mediterranean forest and rocky mountain terrain, with the lake as the reward at the end. The kind of day that travelers who do it describe as the most unexpected highlight of their Lebanon trip. Small group of maximum 9. Knowledgeable guide-driver throughout. Tickets and lunch payable on site.

The trip was terrific with a small group full of life, a special thanks to Albert, who gave us detailed information throughout the journey and ensured that we got the most beautiful picture of Lebanon. The cave is beyond description, and Byblos is a fantastic area. Lunch was delicious, with a beautiful view.

I am so glad I chose this tour as I only had one day to explore this beautiful country. Albert was a great tour host - punctual, friendly and knowledgable - couldn't have asked for more. We were one of the first groups to arrive at Jeita Grotto so we could really enjoy the quiet in the caves. Our time at The Lady of Lebanon was equally beautiful, it felt like just the right amount of time to wander through the "garden" and visit the statue. Finally on to Byblos with a very animated tour of the castle, wonderful lunch and again free time to wander through the Souk. It was time well spent with a small group and a great tour guide.

We booked a half-day small group tour to Jeita Grotto and Byblos and the guide was fantastic with very good English. We received very interesting information about Byblos. Lunch was great as well.
