Getting around Jdeideh the local way

  • Get inReaching Lebanon by ferry is quite a challenge, the only regular passenger ferry is a twice-weekly service from Tasucu, just outside Mersin, Turkey to the northern city of Tripoli by the Lebanese company MedStar.
  • Get inApart from that single passenger ferry, the only way of reaching Lebanon by sea is by cruise ship or — for the more adventurous traveller — freighter travel or a private yacht.
  • Get aroundSome mountain villages don't have public transport links between them hence hitchhiking is a way to get around.
  • Get aroundThe hitchhiking concept is well understood among the people and locals are keen to pick up travellers even if they don't speak any foreign languages.
