I highly recommend this experience. The guide was extremely polite and well-informed about great locations. They were friendly, created a pleasant atmosphere, and communicated effectively in both English and Arabic.
I enjoyed visiting all the amazing places and appreciated the flexibility offered during the tour, especially since I was traveling solo. Thank you!
I had a lovely experience overall. It was a pleasant trip with a great guide, beautiful nature, enjoyable company, and good weather. The towns and places we visited were wonderful, making for a fantastic day.
The scenery was breathtaking, the activities were top-notch, and our guide Robin was very approachable. I would highly recommend this to anyone planning a visit.
The guide was friendly, articulate, and adaptable, making the experience highly enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour, especially as a solo traveler. I look forward to returning to Lebanon and booking another trip with him.
The tour experience was excellent, offering a glimpse of Lebanon's stunning nature in just one day. The company was accommodating, allowing me to reschedule after a food illness. My guide, Ali, was very friendly, ensuring my comfort and happiness throughout. Being the only participant made it easier for him to offer spontaneous stops and add a hike to see the cedar trees. The hikes were brief, with the longest being 1200 meters, but the breathtaking views of Lebanon's terrain were impressive. The cooler weather made hiking enjoyable in summer. I would have liked more information on the Phoenician wall in Batroun, as I appreciate learning about local history and culture. Ali enriched the experience with engaging conversations, and I left the tour with a deeper understanding of Lebanon.
Be aware that depending on the season, the lakes and waterfall may be dry. Ali was welcoming, patient, adaptable, friendly, and provided a lot of helpful information.
This was an incredible experience. My driver, Ali, was friendly, relaxed, and spoke both English and French. He took great care of me, offering coffee and water for the journey. Pickup and communication were seamless, and I felt at ease traveling alone. Although the weather prevented us from reaching the Aaqoura lakes, Ali navigated safely and did everything possible to ensure I enjoyed the trip. The waterfall was stunning, and he provided interesting information. In Batroun, he pointed out some landmarks and patiently waited while I had lunch and explored. I truly appreciate this trip, and despite the weather challenges, I had a fantastic time thanks to Ali. I will definitely recommend this tour to anyone I know visiting Lebanon.
I had a wonderful experience with Zingy Ride. Robin was an excellent driver and guide, with a great sense of humor that made our time in Lebanon enjoyable. I would definitely recommend him to everyone. He drives safely, is very thoughtful, takes great photos, and is incredibly knowledgeable about the locations we explored. Thank you, Robin!
Our anticipation for the lakes and waterfall tour was met with disappointment as both attractions were closed due to snow, and we were not informed ahead of time. The tour ended up being limited to the old souk of Bautron and just 10 minutes of snow play. On a positive note, the driver was very kind and supportive. I would advise against taking this tour in winter; it might be better in summer. Additionally, the company did not provide any refund for not being able to deliver on the original itinerary.
