Ubers is most recommended, car rental works if you can drive

driving in Lebanon is a little more difficult because of the absence of rules, however the average driving speed is lower. If you are confident enough rent a car, if not stick to Uber or a popular local taxi company (Elegance Taxi or Alliance Taxi), however there is no taxi meter, please agree on the price before you leave to your destination. If you plan on staying in the area, make sure you rent out bikes! The sea side road north of the house is a great place to ride. Contact Mike Sport for bike rentals (check on Google)
