Has anyone been to Lebanon recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there last year and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

Different experience for me. Prices were lower when I went.

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

Also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.
