More About Syria

Syrians are among the most friendly and hospitable people in the world, and most visitors to their country end up developing a lifelong infatuation with its gentle charms.

Syria is no Levantine backwater - Syria is a modern, efficient and very proud nation with an administration that is becoming more liberal and outward looking by the day. It needs and deserves travellers to bear witness to this fact.

Fortunately, all the modernisation doesn't mean that Syria has lost sight of its past. The country has more than its fair share of significant historical sites, all of which are respectfully maintained by the authorities. The ancient cities of Damascus, Aleppo and Bosra are all listed on Unesco's World Heritage list, as is the sensationally beautiful ruined city of Palmyra.

Mighty Crusader castles, labyrinthine medieval souqs, jewel-like Damascene houses and sacred Umayyad mosques are only some of the treats on offer; there are plenty more for those who are keen to search them out. Best of all is the fact that these monuments are often woven into the fabric of daily life - the locals worship in the mosques, shop in the souqs, drink tea in the houses and picnic in the ruins. And they're happy for travellers to join them.

Talking about picnics brings us to the pièce de résistance when it comes to a Syrian so- journ - the food. The national cuisine is simply superb, so come with a big appetite. You're bound to be replete in so many ways when you finally tear yourself away.

Syrian Climate & When To Visit

Syria has a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers (June to August) and mild, wet winters (December to February) close to the coast. Inland it gets progressively drier and more inhospitable. On the coast, average daily temperatures range from 29°C in summer to 10°C in winter and the annual rainfall is about 760mm. On the cultivated steppe area, temperatures average 35°C in summer and 12°C in winter. Rainfall varies from 250mm to 500mm. In the desert, the temperatures are high and rainfall is low. In summer, the days average 40°C and highs of 46°C are not uncommon. Winter can be extremely cold in mountainous areas, including Crac des Chevaliers.

Spring is the best time to visit as temperatures are mild and the winter rains have cleared the haze that obscures views for much of the year. Autumn is the next best choice. The busiest tourism periods are Easter, July, August, October and Islamic religious holidays. During these times it is essential to book accommodation in advance. This chapter often quotes opening hours as 'summer' or 'winter'; summer hours generally refer to April to September and winter hours to October to March, but these aren't set in stone and can be dependent on the weather.

Visemar Ferries operate a scheduled ferry service between Venice and Tartus on the coast of Syria, as well as ferries between Tartus and the Egyptian port of Alexandria.

The Syrian ferry route is served by the brand-new ferry Visemar One, which was built by Visentini and can carry 200 trucks, 80 cars and up to 400 passengers in great comfort. The Visemar One will make the journey from Venice to Alexandria in 60, and from Venice to Tartus in 68 hours. If the route proves succesful, Visemar Line hope to add a second ferry later by the end of the year, doubling its capacity.

Tartus (also sometime known as Tartous) is one of the two main Mediterranean ports on the coast of Syria, and is an important trade centre. As well as the ferry service to Venice and Alexandria, the port also has a ferry service to the island of Arwad.

Please Note: Consequent to the political unrest in Syria all ferry services to and from Syria have been suspended till further notice.
