Welcome! I’m Nidal Majdalani, a tourism expert, travel writer and photographer who has spent more than a decade exploring Lebanon’s landscapes, heritage and nature with depth and devotion. Through Travelling Lebanon, I document the country’s trails, rivers, sacred sites, villages, heritage and food traditions with the insight of someone who has lived and breathed these stories for years. I served as the Destination Editor for Lebanon in Lonely Planet’s Middle East Guidebook 2024, shaping the country’s most trusted global travel narrative. My collaboration with Lonely Planet continues, alongside contributions of tourism perspectives in national and regional circles. I am available for commissions, editorial features, destination marketing and storytelling, photography projects and tourism consultancy.
Having traveled to many of them myself, I’ve seen firsthand how clean they are, and published about them. However, some beaches are indeed in need of help! Fortunately, our Ministry of Environment is launching a great initiative to take action before things get worse.
