Getting from Beirut Airport (BEY) to Our Lady of Lebanon (Harissa) takes about 30 min by car on an empty road (30–40 min in heavy traffic) over 33 km via M51. Our private transfer costs €45 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €65 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.
On arrival: The driver waits in the public arrivals hall of the passenger terminal, after passport control, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.
Harissa is a village on a ridge about 600 m above the bay of Jounieh, some 33 km by road from the airport. The route goes through Beirut on the airport road and the ring road, then follows the coastal highway north past Dora and the Dog River to Jounieh. From there a narrow road climbs in hairpin bends through the hillside suburbs to the shrine at the top. There are no tolls; the slowest parts are the city section and the climb from Jounieh on weekends and religious holidays.
The shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon is crowned by a large bronze statue of the Virgin Mary standing on a stone tower, which visitors can climb by an outside spiral staircase for a wide view over Jounieh Bay and the coast towards Beirut. Beside it stands a modern basilica with a concrete facade, and the Melkite Basilica of Saint Paul lies a short distance away on the same ridge. A cable car links the shrine with the seafront of Jounieh below. Cars can drive up to the parking area next to the sanctuary.
Public transport: No direct public transport from the airport to Harissa: No scheduled public bus or rail service from the terminal is published by the airport or the national public transport authority; the state bus lines in Beirut do not list a stop at the airport.
