Questions, answered.

What is the best time to visit Lebanon?
Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) are the most comfortable for hiking and sightseeing. Summer suits the coast and mountain towns, and winter brings skiing in places like Faraya Mzaar and the Cedars.
How do I get around Lebanon?
Most visitors drive or hire a driver, since many villages, reserves and wineries are outside the cities. Distances are short: much of the country is within two or three hours of Beirut.
