Overview
Three destinations that cover Lebanon's most dramatic natural, spiritual, and viticultural extremes — underground, mountaintop, and vineyard — in a single private day from Beirut. Jeita Grotto is a UNESCO tentative World Heritage Site and one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature finalists — 9 kilometres of limestone cave system beneath the Lebanese mountains. Harissa sits 650 metres above the Mediterranean, reached by cable car, crowned by the iconic bronze statue of Our Lady of Lebanon. Ixsir is one of Lebanon's most architecturally striking modern wineries — built into a hillside above Batroun, producing award-winning wines from high-altitude vineyards across the Lebanese mountains.
Private vehicle and knowledgeable local driver exclusively for your group throughout the day. Tasting fees and entrance tickets payable on site. Optional lunch stop in Byblos on the return to Beirut.

What to expect
Beirut
Pass by
9:00 AM — Departure from Beirut
Your driver meets your group at your hotel and heads north — Jeita Grotto is 30 minutes away and the day begins underground.
Jeita Grotto
1h 30m · Admission ticket not included
Jeita Grotto — UNESCO tentative site · New 7 Wonders finalist
Two cave systems, two completely different experiences. The upper cave on foot — an elevated walkway through stalactites and stalagmites up to 8 metres tall, carved by water over millions of years into formations of extraordinary scale and beauty. The lower cave by silent electric boat — gliding along an underground river through chambers where the stillness is total. One of the most spectacular natural experiences in the Middle East — and 30 minutes from Beirut.
Entrance fee payable on site. Photography not permitted inside. Lower cave boat ride may close during high water seasons.
20m · Admission ticket not included
Harissa cable car — 650 metres above the Mediterranean
Board the Téléférique at Jounieh seafront and ride up to 650 metres as Jounieh Bay opens dramatically below — one of the most photographed views in Lebanon. Your driver shares the coastal landmarks and the story of Harissa as you ascend.
Cable car ticket payable on site. Subject to weather and operational conditions.
The Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon
30m
Our Lady of Lebanon — the mountaintop shrine
The 8.5-metre bronze statue of Our Lady of Lebanon — one of the most visited religious monuments in the Middle East, arms outstretched toward the sea. The Maronite Basilica and neighbouring churches surround it. Panoramic views over the Lebanese coast from 650 metres. Revered by Christians and Muslims alike — a landmark that is simultaneously religious, cultural, and geographical.
Ixsir
1h · Admission ticket not included
Ixsir — Lebanon's most architecturally distinctive winery
Arrive at Ixsir — one of Lebanon's most celebrated modern wineries, built into a Batroun hillside above an 18th-century farmhouse that forms the heart of the estate. Ixsir sources grapes from high-altitude vineyards across six Lebanese regions — from the Bekaa to the north coast — producing wines that express the full diversity of Lebanese terroir in a single cellar. The guided cellar tour covers the winemaking philosophy and the estate's architecture before a tasting of Ixsir's signature whites, reds, and the acclaimed Grande Réserve. Your driver shares the story of the estate and its place in Lebanon's modern wine renaissance throughout.
Tasting fee payable directly to the winery.
Byblos
1h
Lunch in Byblos — optional
A natural stop on the return to Beirut — fresh Lebanese mezze and seafood at a waterfront Byblos restaurant, the ancient fishing harbour as backdrop. Optional and at your own expense. Your driver knows the best spots.
