Visit Tripoli and Batroun - Full-Day Tour

Tripoli is the second largest city in Lebanon, it is located 90 Km north of Beirut. The Beautiful city combines the ancient and the modern. As we drive the highway to the north, we reach the modern side of the city, a sports stadium at the entrance and many buildings facing the nice blue Mediterranean shore. Our objective is the old souks in the heart of the city. Small shops of all kinds such as craftsmen, traditional pastries, fishermen, dressmakers, carpenters, painters and a number of artificial artistries gather in a 500-year-old open-air market trying to sell their products… amazing approaches!

Uptown is the Crusadee's fortress overlooking the “Tri Polis” the three cities. All civilizations and armies seized this strategic spot to control the city and its surroundings… History to be told…Time for some traditional sweets and a cup of coffee!

The sweets palace 10 minutes from our last stop dates back to 1881 when a family of talented Chefs decided to start a big sweet factory in the city. Local sweets are famous in Tripoli. Maybe the best oriental sweets you ever tried? It is not only Baklava but a wide variety of tastes and pastry arts displayed in front of you for your savour and your personal palate… the Chef is there and happy to explain every single flavour. An average ride to this small lovely Phoenician city of Batroun; the tourist street is such a lovely place. The old Phoenician wall defences the beach, the old marina and a wide variety of cuisines, bars and cafes ready to welcome you.
