 Verified Amazing experience. Incredible guides This was an amazing experience. From the first day when I wrote to ask about the trip until I was dropped off at the airport at the end, everything was professional and personal. Questions were always answered. Requests were always dealt with. And then the tour itself was fantastic. Our guide Gabriela was an absolutely amazing person to lead us through Syria. Her extensive knowledge of history, culture and different religions was amazing. Her kindness and personality made everyone in the group feel welcomed and appreciated. Thank you Gabriela. And lastly the food was indescribably delicious all the time. I recommend Syrian Guides 100%. I approve!

 Verified Excellent and comfortable adventure in Syria - amazing history and enlightenment! I had the good fortune of spending a week with my guide, Shamel and driver Phillip, both from Syrian guides. They were both excellent. Shamel was a wealth of knowledge, informing and enlightening me about so much of the Syrian history, both recent and past. the locations chosen provided a great cross-section of the country from Busra in the south to Aleppo in the north and from Palmyra in the east to Krak de Chevalier in the west. The hotels chosen were very nice and as expected. The historic boutique hotel in Damascus was an absolute pleasure. I enjoyed time with my guides as well as walking solo through Damascus. I highly recommend Syrian guides!

 Verified An Adventure in Damascus After my family finished a cruise in Istanbul, my middle son and I flew to Beirut. Syrian Guides picked us up at the airport, took us over the gorgeous Mt. Lebanon, smoothed our way through the border checkpoints, and whisked us to our Damascus hotel on the ancient Straight Street (mentioned in Acts 9:11), where we met our super articulate guide, Ayham. We spent 3 days touring Damascus and 1 in Palmyra. Four big takeaways: Damascus is super safe, inexpensive, friendly, and historic. The only problem is that the Syrian credit card system is still being restored and thus cash is required for everything. Ayham happily answered our barrage of questions and seemed to know everyone. One surprising thing was the large number of active and visible Christian churches in this overwhelmingly Muslim country. Syria is a great adventure. You should go now, while tourism in Syria is getting back on its feet.
