What do our travellers think

It was truly a great trip to an interesting country that has been through lots of hardship in recent years but the people were so friendly and welcoming.

Steve White – Syria, individual tour

Great tour with wonderful memories. Loved it when the head of security at the mosque said “we’ve been watching you on camera and trying to figure out who you are!”  That’s when you know you’re off the beaten path of many westerners. It was fantastic to be welcomed in and even served tea!

Steve Homrich – Iraq, group tour

The whole trip to North Korea was very well taken care of by CultureRoad. Well done!

In the nomadic tribes of South Sudan, cow urine is a primary ingredient used to dye the hair of tribal members orange and to cleanse and protect their skin. Cow urine is used for its antiseptic properties, as well as to give the hair a vibrant hue, especially in shades of red and yellow. In some of the more remote villages, cow urine is also used as a natural insect repellent. The use of cow urine as a beauty ingredient has been practiced for generations, and is an integral part of tribal culture and identity. #southsudan #Hygiene #Culture #rurallife #ceativeideas #cultureroad

When you go to a new location the easiest path to making friends is trying their food. We believe the best way to experience local culture is to eat it, and the food in Syria is excellent! Syrian people are very welcoming and take the time to make everything perfect. Here are our top dishes you should try when you visit Syria. First on the list is Kafta Sabzi - a traditional dish consisting of lamb or beef cooked in a tomato sauce with herbs and spices. It's very healthy too, thanks to the herbs in it. Have it served with pita bread and salad for a lighter lunch. Another tasty treat is Hummus - a dip made from chickpeas with lots of fresh garlic and lemon juice. It's a very popular dish and goes well with fresh bread and kebabs. It's also very filling so you can have it as a light meal if you're on a gluten-free diet. Feeling Hungry for Adventure?
