Minibuses travel frequently between Beirut and Lebanon’s bigger towns; however, the only bus route that uses large buses is the Beirut to Tripoli route. Dependable Beirut-based taxi companies with English-speaking drivers and clean cars will charge around $100US for a half-day hire and $150US for a full-day. If you prefer to drive, beware, the roads can be dangerous and are not for the faint of heart. There are hairpin turns, jam-packed intersections and pot-holed roads to navigate. If you choose this mode of transportation, make sure you have data on your phone to access online maps.
