The Bekaa Valley in one day — with wine at both ends. Chateau Saint Thomas in the morning: a respected high-altitude family estate whose international medal wins have established it as one of Lebanon's most consistent producers — a quiet, confident opener that sets the tone before Baalbek. The greatest Roman temples ever built in the middle, with an expert local guide who knows every column and every inscription. Chateau Ksara at the end: Lebanon's oldest winery, founded by Jesuits in 1857, where the Roman cave cellars beneath it close the day by connecting directly back to the temples you explored this morning. Wine, temples, wine caves. The Bekaa structured as a single coherent story about...

Itinéraire
1
Beyrouth
9:00 AM — Hotel pickup
Your driver meets the group at your Beirut hotel and heads east on the Damascus highway — over the Lebanese mountains and into the Bekaa Valley. First stop is Chateau Saint Thomas, about an hour away.

Château St Thomas
Chateau Saint Thomas — high-altitude precision winemaking
Begin at Chateau Saint Thomas — a respected family-owned estate producing wines from vineyards at over 1,000 metres altitude in the Bekaa. High elevation and cool nights create growing conditions of real complexity — wines that earn international medals and consistently surprise visitors who arrive expecting something more modest. The guided cellar tour covers the winemaking process before a tasting of the estate's acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon, full-bodied red blends, and elegant whites. A quiet, confident opener that sets the right tone before Baalbek.

Pierre de la femme enceinte
Stone of the Pregnant Woman — before the temples
A single limestone block, 21 metres long, weighing 1,000 tonnes, cut 2,000 years ago and never moved. Your driver explains the engineering logic — and why standing next to it recalibrates your sense of what is waiting five minutes ahead at the temple complex.

Baalbek
Baalbek Temple Complex — expert local guide
The greatest Roman temple complex on earth — with an expert local guide who knows these structures at a depth that visiting guides cannot match. The Temple of Jupiter on Trilithon stones each weighing over 800 tonnes. The Temple of Bacchus — larger than the Parthenon, almost entirely intact, the best-preserved Roman temple on earth. The Temple of Venus completing a complex that took three centuries. After a morning at a high-altitude winery in the same valley, the Roman scale of Baalbek hits differently — your guide makes the connections between the valley's ancient and modern production of exceptional things.

Baalbeck
Lunch in Baalbek or Zahle — optional
Lebanese mezze in Baalbek or at the riverside terraces of Zahle — Lebanon's most celebrated food destination. Optional and at your own expense. Your driver recommends the best options for the group.

Château Ksara
Chateau Ksara — Roman caves, Lebanese wine, founded 1857
End the day at Lebanon's oldest winery — founded by Jesuit monks in 1857 above 2 kilometres of Roman cave cellars where wine ages at a naturally constant temperature year-round. After the temples of Baalbek, these Roman tunnels feel like a continuation rather than a new stop — the same civilisation, the same valley, a completely different kind of monument. A tasting of Ksara's iconic Cabernet-Syrah blends, crisp Blanc de Blancs, and celebrated Sunset Rosé closes a day that started with Lebanese wine, peaked at Rome's greatest achievement, and ends underground. Done properly.

Beyrouth
Return to Beirut — approx. 6:00 PM
Drop-off at your Beirut hotel. Wine, temples, Roman wine caves — the Bekaa Valley as one coherent story, from the morning's first cellar tour to the afternoon's last tasting. Done properly.
