What you'll see and do

  1. Ouadi Qannoubine

    After a 90 mins drive from Beirut, we reach the entrance of the Qadisha valley, and the first section of the valley that is Qannoubine. This part of the Sacred Valley includes a spectacular panoramic view during our drive down, and two main historical monasteries in which saints and church figures are burried, and an old church and burial site as well. Once we complete our first stop, Saint Lishaa Monastery (30 mins visit), a 20 mins offroad drive will lead us to the second historical monastery, Our Lady Of Qannoubine, the old village, and the church of Saint Marina of Venezia (60 mins visit)

  2. The hermitage of Hawqa holds the story of some legendary confrontations between the locals and the Mamlouks army early in the Middle Ages. To reach there, we'll do a 45 mins hike from Qannoubine to the Hermitage of Hawqa (45 mins visit).

  3. Maronite Monastery of St. Anthony The Great

    Once we leave Hawqa, we'll walk towards the village of Fraidis (Heavens in Lebanese), a 90 mins walk. Once we reach the village, we stop by a water source and set our small picnic there. After lunch, we continue a 60 mins walk to reach the Monastery of Saint Anthony if Qozhaya, housing the oldest religious community in the area, and the first original Guttenberg printing press to be brought to the Middle East. Our visit to the Monastery takes an hour, followed by a coffee break in their humble caffeteria.

    To leave the valley of Kadisha, a transfer will be arranged by car to drive us to our starting point where we left our vehicle. This drive takes 40 mins, and then followed by a 30 mins drive to the Cedars Forest where we go inside for a short walk between the cedar trees of Lebanon. Before we leave the area, free time will be given for guests to take in the ambiance of the place, shop for souvenirs, or simply have a beverage.

Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beirut.

How much does Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha cost?

+

Prices start at $220 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beirut usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha take?

+

Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beirut is not rushed.

Is Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Beirut, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha?

+

Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beirut can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beirut and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Full Day Off-Road / Hiking Tour in Kadisha start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beirut within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Beirut?

+

On Outty we rank every Beirut experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guided Small-Group Tour to Baalbek, Anjar and Ksara with Lunch, Guided Small-Group Tour to Jeita, Harissa, Byblos with Lunch, Jeita Grotto,Harissa&Byblos Full-Day PRIVATE-CAR Trip from Beirut. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Beirut?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Beirut?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
