Current pricing for Lebanon:
Short Time: Budget $56-69, Mid $75-192, Premium $290+
Long Time/Overnight: $172-492
Massage with extras: $44-107
These are approximate ranges as of early 2026. Prices vary by area, provider quality, and negotiation. Tourist areas tend to be more expensive.
Tipping is not part of the culture here.
Best value: early evening before the rush.

I was there in last month and prices were about average. Spent about $50/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

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

Did you use an agency or find girls at bars?
