Overview
Two of Lebanon's most iconic destinations — underground and mountaintop — in one private morning from Beirut, back by early afternoon. This is the most efficient way to tick Jeita Grotto and Harissa off your Lebanon list without committing a full day or sharing the experience with strangers. Five hours. Private vehicle. Knowledgeable English-speaking driver. Whole afternoon free.
Jeita Grotto is a UNESCO tentative World Heritage Site and New 7 Wonders of Nature finalist — 9 kilometres of limestone cave system 30 minutes from your hotel, with some of the most extraordinary stalactite and stalagmite formations on earth. Harissa is 650 metres above the Mediterranean by cable car, crowned by the iconic bronze statue of Our Lady of Lebanon. Underground to mountaintop in five hours. Entrance tickets payable on site — you control what you spend.

Jeita Grotto
1h 30m · Admission ticket not included
Jeita Grotto — New 7 Wonders finalist · UNESCO tentative site
Two cave systems that consistently top Lebanon's must-visit lists. The upper cave on foot — stalactites and stalagmites up to 8 metres tall, formed over millions of years into formations that photographs simply do not do justice. The lower cave by silent electric boat along an underground river — a stillness and scale that has to be experienced to be understood. Your driver covers the key geological facts at the entrance. You explore at your own pace inside — no group schedule, no rushing.
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 — from sea level to 650 metres
Board the Téléférique at Jounieh seafront — the transition from underground to above the clouds in a single morning. Ride up to 650 metres as Jounieh Bay opens dramatically below you. One of the most photographed aerial views in Lebanon. The ascent is the experience. Your driver shares the story of Harissa as you prepare to disembark.
Cable car ticket payable on site. Subject to weather and operational conditions.
The Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon
30m
Our Lady of Lebanon — Lebanon's most visited mountaintop shrine
The 8.5-metre bronze statue of Our Lady of Lebanon — arms outstretched toward the Mediterranean, one of the most recognisable religious monuments in the Middle East. The Maronite Basilica and neighbouring churches surround it. Panoramic views over the entire Lebanese coast from 650 metres. Revered by Christians and Muslims alike. Spend as long as the group wants — the vehicle is waiting whenever you are ready.
