Lunch at Captain Bob's Tyre
If you want to eat your lunch right on the water, nothing beats Captain Bob's. During the summer. the restaurant builds a wooden patio over the ocean, sets up some plastic chairs and tables, and serves up shisha, delicious mezze and fried fish.

Wonderful trip!
I went with Citysightseeing Lebanon to the wonderful Jeita Grotto, Harissa cable cars and the oldest city in the world : Byblos Castle. It was such a wonderful experience. The guide was very interesting and professional, the service was excellent, the food was delicious in a restaurant by the beach. I strongly recommend this tour company !

Treasured times and lovely journeys are always guaranteed with City Sightseeing Tours: This is what you will get!
It is my second tour with City Sightseeing, and I can say that I am thrilled and satisfied! First time was on Saturday 23rd of July, Ehden reserve and Bnachii lake destination. The bus itself brings positive vibes through its colors and layouts, followed by the music and service during the whole ride.... This day was a great one. Ehden reserve is a marvelous site. You are surrounded by the nature, and you can easily forget, for a short period, anything that disturbs your soul. Furrthermore, Bnachii lake is indeed a gem, so peaceful and its restaurant offers delicious food, although portions were small. You can have your lunch while enjoying the magnificient view. Second time was on Sunday July 31, at Sidon Sea Castle, Tyr, and Lady of Maghdouche. The atmosphere was so positive and participants led the show. Amazing landscapes were part of the program and yummy fish at Zikrayat restaurant in Tyr, were the best ingredients for an unforgettable and relaxing Sunday. At city sightseeing tours, they take care of the small details from the moment you step in their bus, till the end of the "trip". The team is very professional, dedicated and friendly. They always strive to exceed clients expectations, and share their passion and love for Lebanon, in terms of selecting the touristical sites and making your day awesome. If you are willing to discover Lebanon's hidden beauty, I recommend you to chose City Sightseeing Tours and you will surely not regret. Thank you City Sightseeing Tours for everything that you do and keep it up!! Joanna T.
Response from the operator: Thank you Joanna for this amazing review! We are glad you enjoyed your trip with Citysighseeing lebanon !

Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beirut.
How much does Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide cost?
+
Prices start at $115 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 Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 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 Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide?
+
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 Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide?
+
Around 3 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lebanon tour Sidon & Tyre ruins with pick-up & multilingual guide 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, Harisa & Byblos: Small Group Tour with Hotel pickup. 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.
