Syria

15 Best Things To Do In Syria in 2025

When I decided to travel to Syria the first thing everyone said was of course: 'are you crazy!?'. An understandable reaction but it didn't change my mind. I realized that for me it was safe to visit Syria and their outstanding tourist attractions were on my bucketlist for a very long time.

For many years this country was topping the bucketlist of many travelers and no wonder because there are so many amazing things to do and places to visit in Syria. But when the Syrian war in 2011 started, everything changed...

My Syria Trip Day 2 | Krak des Chevalier & Beehive Houses

 

Driving towards Krak des Chevalier in the morning we caught the first glimpse of the war. Destruction was of course not what I came to Syria for but somehow I was extremely intrigued about it though. It actually felt a bit unpleasant to realize that I really wanted to see the destruction and what war had done Syria. I apologized to myself a bunch of time, but I was in awe with everything I was witnessing...

My Syria Trip Day 1 | From Beirut to Tartous

 

It still felt a bit strange walking up to a brand new luxurious car with a Syrian number plate in the heart of Beirut. Just a few moments before I met Mohammed, a tall and very friendly old man, patiently waiting for me in the lobby of my hotel. His smile was captivating. ‘I am your driver for your Syria trip this week’, he introduced himself with while he offered to take my small backpack. At that moment I started to realize… my trip to Syria

had just started.

 traveltomtom about

Nice to meet you! I am Tom an avid adventure traveler from The Netherlands continuously traveling the world since 2012, living a full time nomadic life and visited about 160 countries around the world. I got infected with the travel bug back in 2008 when I did my first trip around the world. Now my continuous trip is already more than 4,200 days. Yes, that is almost 12 years of exploring, not living abroad, but the real deal: constantly traveling!

My passion to inspire and help other travelers to travel the world turned into a lifestyle. When I started this travel blog I never though it would give me the freedom to travel the world, whenever and wherever. So what started as a passion ended up in a dream coming true...

I am also super grateful to have an amazing Traveltomtom community supporting me on social media. The Traveltomtom channels reach far over 2 million followers with  1.4 Million on TikTok and 650K on Instagram.

After visiting 100 countries by the end of 2019 I felt inspired to visit every country in the world. However, along the way I found out it is not my thing to turn traveling into a challenge. I travel because it is my passion. I travel to learn, to become a better person and to feel alive and live in the moment. For me life is about chasing happiness, not goals!

Traveltomtom has successfully hosted group trips in the past and they will be back in 2025! Interested to join me on one of my trips? Check out my Traveltomtom Group Trip page for one of the exciting upcoming group trips.

Traveling makes me a better person with ever day I am on the road. And to all adventurers: don't waste time, live now!
