Returned from 10 days in Lebanon. Solid experience.

Busy and well-organized. Prices were in line with forum reports.

Quality:
Generally good looking with good service. Had 7 encounters total.

Logistics:
Transport was easy — Uber/Grab works well. Found great local restaurants.

Safety:
No issues at all.

Overall: 7/10. Good destination, recommend for first-timers.

Happy to answer any questions.

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $50/day all-in.

My tip: midweek is much better.

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The value for money is what keeps me coming back.
