Frequently Asked Questions about hostels in Lebanon
What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit?
For budget travelers, exploring Lebanon's diverse landscapes and historical sites is surprisingly affordable. Hiking in the mountains of the Chouf region, visiting the ancient Roman ruins of Baalbek, and exploring the vibrant souks (markets) of Tripoli or Beirut are all relatively inexpensive. Many smaller museums and historical sites also have low entrance fees. Free activities include walking along the Corniche in Beirut, enjoying the beaches of Tyre, or simply wandering through the charming streets of smaller towns like Byblos.
