  1. Tour of the Historic Centre of Beirut and the National Museum

You will be picked up from your hotel in Beirut and taken to the historic centre, whose long and tumultuous history is reflected in the archaeological sites throughout the city. You'll see Beirut's most famous monuments (churches, mosques, Martyrs' Statue, etc.) and visit the National Museum of Beirut, which boasts a superb collection of Phoenician artefacts.

You'll then go to the town of Beiteddine, where you'll visit the magnificent Beiteddine Palace, constructed in the early ninth century. Its arcades, galleries and rooms decorated by various international artists make this monument an archetype of Middle Eastern architecture.
