We love Syria. There is so much to see, the people are incredibly friendly, food is good, it is safe and everything is quite affordable. In all, we would say it is one of our favorite travel destinations so far. So let’s say you’re coming to Syria for a couple weeks (and you should). Here’s how you could spend your time.
1 – Damascus
2 – Damascus
3 – Damascus
4 – daytrip to Baalbek, Lebanon (not Syria, I know–be sure to have a re-entry visa)
5 – get an early start and travel to Apamea; sleep at Krak des Chevaliers (Hotel Baibars–what a view!)
6 – tour Krak; travel to Aleppo (a few hours)
7 – Aleppo
8 – choose: 1) Dead Cities (Jeradeh, Dana, Bara and Serjilla) or 2) St. Simeon and Deir Samaan
9 – Aleppo
10 – travel to Palmyra (much of day), catch sunset
11 – Palmyra
12 – travel to Damascus (a few hours)
13 – daytrip to Shahba and Bosra
14 – Damascus
