About me 😁 Hi my name is Joe 30 years old Lebanese pharmacist living in Beirut. I’m very sociable and love to meet new people. I am looking for 4TripMates who are interested in visiting Lebanon this Summer on a guided trip. As a local, I believe I have the best spots and places in mind to make an unforgettable experience and create lifelong memories together. About Lebanon 🇱🇧 Known as the Paris of the Middle East for a reason, Lebanon is one of the best countries in the Region by far. It is known for its beautiful mountains and landscapes, thousands years of history, natural beaches, a local cuisine that attracts millions of people worldwide, and arguably the best Nightlife I have ever experienced. Did I tell you the best part? You can do all these within the same day as its a very small country and possibly the only country where you can ski in the morning &swim in the afternoon on the same day and that's a fun fact😉 About the trip 😎I am looking for like-minded people who are looking to have their best time with me this summer. TripMates should enjoy cultural historical sites, FOOD(I mean who doesn't 😜), Beach, Nightlife, and Hikes. We will be visiting Beirut the capital of Lebanon in addition to cities like Byblos, Batroun, etc Costs💲 For this guided trip, I will be renting an Airbnb in the city and will be using my own car to take care of all our activities. The cost per person is 600€ which includes: - Accommodation cost for a week (Shared airbnb rooms) - Transportation costs - Service fees - Some local entrances to historical sites Costs don't include flight tickets, visa fees (if needed), and personal expenses which means food&beverages. I can't wait to show you my beautiful Lebanon so what are you waiting for?? Yalla habibi lets gooo 💃🏻 Questions? Let me know in the Q&A section. Looking forward to welcoming you in Lebanon.
