| Junior Member | Hello, I'd like to help a guest who wants to visit Syria who says: Quoting "My husband and I are thinking of taking his mum to Syria for a holiday next April/May - she is a Muslim and is very keen to see the mosques in Damascas and Aleppo. She is 70 and not very mobile, she can walk a little but pretty slowly. We also have a baby, who will be just over a year old then. Our idea is to get a tailor-made trip with a private driver, and the itinerary we are thinking of is Damascus - Palmyra - Krak de Chevaliers - Hama - Aleppo. We are happy to pay a bit extra to stay in good hotels. Is this a practical plan? How hard will it be? Any tips on travelling with a child in Syria, or on good quality hotels that would be suitable for our group?" Thanks! |

| Hi there, Your itinerary sounds amazing but involves a lot of walking around which could prove exhausting for the elderly lady. So a wheelchair might be useful when walking around the places. I would suggest renting a car for the most part for getting around in Syria as this would be the most convient way as you are travelling with a little baby as well. They are plenty of good quality hotels in Syria although be aware you are travelling in high season. The Beit Al Joury is a five star hotel situated 20 minnutes from Damascus airport and it is recomended for tourists and families and will set you $118 per person Hope this helps VacationBuddy |
