This is very professional well planned tour . I never expected to see a lot of Syria in 9 days . From the boarder to the capital city , from the capital city to all places in the North and South of the country, then back to the border was so smooth, fun and packed with stop over in all the historical place . The guide was very efficient in his English , very enthusiastic, and knowledgeable about all the places . He make us feel welcome ,safe and connected with the people

Ayoub and his team are great! They are extremely knowledge about Syria and its history. They show you the side of Syria you don’t see in the news. Syria is such an amazing country. Thanks for a great trip!

My 3 day trip to in Syria was thoroughly enjoyed. From the moment I was picked up from my hotel in Beirut, I felt safe the whole way through my tour.
I Stayed in Damascus in a very comfortable hotel in the old souk. Great location. Visited Homs, Krak des Chevaliers and Maaloula.
So much history.
My guide Lulu did a super job guiding me. Answered all my questions, took lots of pics for me and shared great places to eat. And even cured my upset stomach.
The people are so welcoming and really enjoy seeing tourists. So just go and check it out.
I’ll definitely go back.

Marrota travel agency is very well organized, I am very satisfied with the services of this agency. When I wrote to Ayoub for the first time, I immediately received a travel package schedule and all the detailed information, and then we just agreed on what I was interested in. We visited Damascus, Maaloula, Homs, Hama, Aleppo, Busra, Palmyra, Krak des Chevaliers and Ballbek in Lebanon. Visiting each of these towns was a great experience with a wonderful guide who gave us a history lesson from each place we visited and of course we felt safe everywhere and despite the long-lasting war in this country, people walked around smiling and welcomed us as tourists. So our stay with friends in Syria was very active and I will never forget this trip and I will definitely want to go back there in a larger group. The climate in Syria is perfect, warm all the time.
So I highly recommend the Marrota travel and I would like to thank Ayoub for the wonderful organization, Wasim for showing us around all these places, history lessons and for helping us in every matter and company and we would like to thank the driver Khaled for taking us everywhere. It was a really great adventure 🇵🇱❤️🇸🇾

From the beginning, I had good communication with Ayoub. He quickly and thoroughly answered any and all questions I had about his “Inspiration 7 Days/6 Nights” tour that covers most of the classic tourist sites around the country. Ayoub applied for my visa and let me know about a month later once it had been approved. I really enjoyed spending time with my guide Akel who was very knowledgeable about the history of the country and spoke perfect English and Spanish. There’s no shortage of interesting historical places and things to do around Syria. The security situation was relatively good when I went in September 2023 and I hope it remains so in spite of the new Israel-Hamas war which has since broken out not too far away. The people of Syria were kind and friendly, even to an American like me. Everything went smoothly on my trip and I would recommend the services of Ayoub and Marrota. Cheers!

There is a reason why Marrota Travel is Rated #1 for travel to Syria!! Three of us Traveled to Syria in August 2023 for 6 full days utilizing Marrota Travel. What a great experience!! As three Americans traveling to Syria, I was not sure how we would be received by Syrians given the challenged relationship between our two countries over the years and also in the back of my mind was naturally the turmoil in the wider Middle East. I can tell you that the Syrian people were wonderful, hospitable, and extremely welcoming, which of course surprised me!! Additionally, our guides, Muhammed and Khaled were excellent -- I would absolutely ask for them if you book a trip to Syria. They took good care of us and I NEVER, I mean NEVER felt unsafe at any time. Syria is a wonderful country -- Damascus is the WORLD'S longest continuously inhabited Capital. Also in Damascus is the Umayyad Mosque which is one of the largest and oldest mosques in the world. The town of Maaloula is one of the very few places on earth where the original language of Jesus is still spoken: Aramaic. The ancient city of Palmyra is also a fascinating destination given its history and historical significance.
There is much to see in Syria, I am only mentioning a few of the highlights. Ayoub was our contact for arranging everything, from the security clearance, to arranging to have us picked up in Beirut ( only a 2-3 hour drive ), to making sure the entire tour went well.
Overall a great experience. With Ayoub taking care of the arrangements and Muhammed and Khaled being fantastic hosts and guides, I can highly recommend a trip to Syria -- I guarantee you will be surprised how safe the areas you visit are and how friendly and hospitable the Syrian people are -- perhaps not the message we get from traditional media.

Very professional agency. The choice of hitels was excellent, especially the Talisman in Damascus. Guide Tambee was a true professional, the likes of which I have never met in my life. I hope for better days for this wonderful country, and I am sure that I will visit Syria again soon, of course with Maroto travel

The process went very smooth especially with military checkpoints because the tour company was very organized. I learned a lot more with my tour guide. My driver was also great! The country has its beauty despite being war-torn. The kindness and beauty of the Syrian people is what makes me want to go back. I love Syria and the people there, including the soldiers because they are patriots protecting their country from terrorism. The people showed how strong their will is. You can destroy a country, but they will always rebuild and welcome you with smiles. Syria is my favorite Arab country and the people at Marrota are awesome!

Great communication and smooth hassle free transport arrangement from Beirut - Damascus - Beirut, thanks to Ayoub from Marrota. My guide Rula came across as informative, responsible and was able to give me a detailed insight of Damascus. I will highly recommend Ayoub for a job well done.
