    A trip to remember. On the visit to Baalbek, Anjar and Ksara, I marvelled at the majestic ruins and the rich history shared with us by the guides. The lunch was delicious and authentic, and the wine tasting at Chateau Ksara was an experience I had not had before. Highly recommended!

    The wine tasting was enjoyable, but I would have liked to learn more about the production process.

    Discovering the grandeur of the past. On the tour to Baalbek, Anjar and Ksara, I marvelled at the ancient ruins and architecture in Anjar, the most impressive thing I have ever seen.

    Although the ruins of Baalbek and the city of Anjar were fascinating, I was a little disappointed by the lack of free time to explore on my own.
