Luxury Travel to Lebanon |
Luxury Travel and Tours, Lebanon
"First, we had molecular cuisine, now the
concept of travel is being repackaged by
Urbane Nomads, a Singaporean travel company
with a difference. Urbane Nomads seeks out
the unique in every destination (and they
seek out some pretty unique destinations
too!) and bundle it with select
accommodation and unusual travel modes. Take
their eight-day trip to Lebanon, which
combines visits to historical sites with a
gourmand's tour of Beirut's finest
restaurants and an after-hours itinerary to
keep you hopping all night. The trip
miraculously even includes a day on
Lebanon's ski slopes."~

It is amazing to witness
the dynamism and beauty of a city and the
optimism of a people with a recent past as
turbulent as Lebanon's.
A
quintessentially Mediterranean country with a
stunning skyline, lovely weather and literally, as
the tourism board's blurbs claim- the place to go
skiing in the morning and swimming in the afternoon
Luxury travel in Lebanon is becoming a possibility
again, what with the new boutique hotel
installations and the opening of Le Gray's in
Beirut.
The luxury itinerary in Lebanon would combine the
best hotel stays in the city with a possible spot of
skiing in winter or stays by the beach in summer
with dining in the city's best restaurants and
entertainment options, frequently demonstrating an
architecture that double up as social commentary.
It's very easy to combine Lebanon and Syria
and Urbane Nomads offers private luxury
tours and itineraries combining the two
countries. For the more ambitious (and those
with more days to spare), the trip can
continue onwards to Jordan and possibly
Egypt, travelling through some areas
romantically termed 'the Levant'.
