“We initially arranged just an airport transfer from Beirut Airport to Batroun, but during the one-hour trip, we had such an enjoyable and informative journey with Robin that we decided to also book a tour with his company. We went on the Jeita Grotto – Harissa – Byblos Tour with another friendly and accommodating colleague. On our final day, we experienced the Private Beirut City Tour with Robin, which was incredibly fun. His knowledge about the city was impressive, and it was clear he is passionate about his work. I highly suggest using any of his services; you won’t regret it.”— chulava on the Beirut city tour with a boat ride at Raouche Rock tour
