Leisurely explore the country’s numerous archeological sites and historic monuments. Go on a hike in the Cedars forest or one of the nature reserves. Take a gastronomical tour of Lebanon, sampling regional specialties at the great restaurants scattered throughout the country. Don’t miss wine tasting at the vineyards in the Bekaa Valley, the citrus harvest in the South, and apple picking in the North. 

Hire a small outfitter to take you on a trip along the ancient olive route to see the harvesting of the olives, learn how olive oil is pressed, and purchase Lebanese olive oil and luxurious olive oil soap.
