Venture to the less-visited southern regions of Lebanon on this history-packed sightseeing tour. Visit two seaside ancient sites, including Saida—home to a traditional soap factory and centuries-old sea castle—and Sidon, where you’ll have time to explore a Roman-era hippodrome and quaint fishermen’s port. Tours include an optional lunch stop for a chance to taste the catch of the day.

Driving the highway to Saida is smooth and lovely. The Crusades Sea Castle is where we start our visit, a splendid old sand stones floating fortress protecting the city seafront where lies the old busy souks of Saida. The traditional soap factory, the small shops, the butcher next to the local pastry tiles, the wooden craft street and the “Craque des Chevaliers” will enrich your memories with more surprising involvements in Lebanon’s diversity and cultures…
