What to Expect
A Magical World of Ancient Caves
Jeita Grotto is a natural wonder known to travelers since the 19th century. It consists of caves on two levels: we will walk on the upper level and take a boat ride on the lower level. You will feel like in a fairy tale where millions of years old stalactites and stalagmites guard the walls of the grotto. I will tell you the story of this amazing place and reveal the peculiarities of the formation of karst caves.
The Amazing Byblos
Byblos is one of the oldest cities in the world and the 'cradle of alphabetic writing'. Here you will visit the museum of fossils, stroll through the medieval market and picturesque Phoenician port, and visit the church of the Crusaders. I will share the most interesting facts from the history of this city, which dates back more than 6000 years.
