Syria travel is a journey like no other, it is a powerful blend of ancient history, rich culture, and heartfelt hospitality. Despite its turbulent past, Syria is slowly reopening its doors to curious travellers seeking authentic, off-the-beaten-path adventures. At Rocky Road Travel, we offer guided tours that take you deep into the soul of this fascinating country, safely and responsibly.
Discover a Land of Timeless History
From the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities to Roman ruins and Crusader castles, Syria is a living museum. Highlights include:
- Damascus – The legendary capital, with its maze-like Old City, ancient souks, and the mesmerising Umayyad Mosque.
- Aleppo – A resilient city slowly rebuilding, with its iconic citadel and bustling markets.
- Palmyra – The haunting ruins of a once-thriving Silk Road metropolis, rich in Greco-Roman heritage.
- Krak des Chevaliers – One of the best-preserved Crusader castles in the world.
- Ma’loula – A picturesque Christian village where Aramaic, the language of Jesus, is still spoken.
Our itineraries are crafted to showcase Syria’s complexity and beauty while respecting its people and traditions.
