A week in Lebanon
Lebanon is a great destination for a week of vacation where you have everything between 30 minutes and 1.5 hour away from Beirut: beaches, mountain hikes, historical sites, fine restaurants and bars/clubs.
If you wish to, please feel free to come earlier. We will organize activities every day from the weekend before, and you can pick and choose.
We can help you with all the logistics required for the smoothest trip. Just reach out to us.
Below a couple of tourist sites, beach clubs, mountain hikes, bars and restaurants we recommend.
We will update this list closer to the wedding day with the latest hotspots.
