The situation in Syria has changed significantly in recent days, and we must inform our travellers of the following: all trips to Syria are currently suspended and will not take place until March 2025.

Krak des Chevaliers, also known as Qal'at al-Hosn, stands as a historic fortress in western Syria. The castle stands on a strategic hilltop near the Lebanon border in the Homs Governorate. It serves as a remarkable example of medieval military architecture under the prestigious title of UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Exaltation of the Cross Festival, also known as "Elevation of the Precious and Life-Giving Cross," holds immense religious and historical significance for the Syrian people. This festival commemorates the discovery of the True Cross by Saint Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great, in the 4th century.

Nestled in the heart of the Syrian desert, the ancient city of Palmyra stands as a testament to the grandeur and diversity of human civilizations that once thrived in this region. Known as the “Pearl of the Syrian desert,” this oasis city was a beautiful bridge between the East and West. It was a city at the crossroads of civilizations, a city that grew from a humble village into a grand metropolis of the ancient world.

This ancient city, located in the southern part of the country, boasts a wealth of architectural wonders and archaeological sites. Many of our Syria tours include a trip to Bosra - visiting the remarkably well-preserved Roman Amphitheatre and the old center of the city
