What is the best mode of transportation while in Lebanon?For some destinations, walking is feasible. Otherwise, we recommend using trusted taxi services mentioned in our "Logistics" tab, or Uber. Avoid using public buses and unaffiliated street taxis. Company taxis require your contact details for communication. Always reconfirm the booking details with your driver and inquire about the fare in advance. When using taxis, ensure they communicate with their head office for tariff confirmation.

Is the wedding taking place in the capital city, Beirut?The wedding venue is Arnaoun Village, located about 1.5 to 2 hours from Beirut, a short drive from Batroun, and 30 minutes from Jbeil. For the wedding night, Batroun is a recommended place to stay due to its proximity. If you choose to stay in Beirut, the journey back will take around an hour. We suggest using one of the taxi services listed in our "Logistics" tab.
