Transport Syria

Remember that it is currently not advisable to travel to Syria.

As almost everywhere in developing countries, it is mostly by bus that one moves inside Syria. These are varied, very cheap, punctual, numerous and cover almost the entire territory.

The only minor difficulty (and still) is that the destinations in the bus stations are usually only indicated in Arabic (do not hesitate to ask).

Whatever the means of transport, to buy a ticket, you must present your passport.

Bus

Even the most remote villages are connected to big cities by bus or minibus. They constitute a great school of social relations.

- Pullman bus and VIP bus: several large reliable private companies like Kadmous, Al-Ahlia and Super Tours (recent). Certain advantage in summer: air conditioning! Of all these companies, Kadmous is perhaps not only the most organized, but also the one that serves the most destinations. Prefer VIP buses, newer. For some trips, it is better to reserve your place the day before, especially at the end of the week or during the holidays.

- Regular buses: they are called "hop-hop" because they often stop en route to board or disembark passengers. They connect the big cities with each other, but also with the average towns. Harder, less fast but also much cheaper than the Pullman. Terminals sometimes eccentric and destinations not always identifiable. They leave in principle as soon as complete. In the afternoon, the departures stretch; in the evening, very little or not at all.

- Minibuses: also called "hop-hop". Same principle as ordinary buses, but less distant destinations. In general, they circulate in a radius of about sixty kilometers around the big cities. It is the providence of the countryside. Between 20 and 30 seats, but often double passengers. They stop everywhere on a simple sign (inevitable corollary, they are also very slow). Conditions of transport most often spartan.

- Microbuses: generally vehicles with 10-12 seats, which serve as both urban buses and intercity transport (and villages). More expensive but faster than minibuses. They also leave when they are full. They roll like crazy!

Again, it is advisable to leave in the morning because there are fewer buses in the afternoon. Reduced frequency on some roads on Fridays.

To make sure the driver does not ask for a "special tourist" fare, ask the passenger for the price next to you. If your bag does not fit on your lap or in front of you, you will be charged for the seat it occupies.

If there is room next to a person of the same sex, prefer this place, even if, unlike Pullman buses, it is quite acceptable for people of different sex to share the same seat.

Train

Few railway lines, transport mode much less widespread and much slower than the bus. Very cheap however, which will appeal to small budgets. Attention, the passport is requested at the time of the purchase of the tickets. Not very practical (except for the link between Lattakia-Aleppo and Damascus-Aleppo, with stops at Homs and Hama), with many departures and arrivals at night.

Car and road

- Driving and condition of roads: the road network is good. Driving in the city, on the other hand, is a feat. Very dense traffic, no flashing or respect for routes or priorities, braking as late as inempestive, overtaking on all sides ...

Be wary of stray animals or herds, carts at night, cyclists, pedestrians ...

Highways are in principle limited to 110 km / h, although few Syrians seem to care. Always be attentive, even more on the two-way roads where some crazy doublers squat the left lane, theoretically yours if you arrive in front. Learn to use the horn.

Very dense network of paved roads. A few rare dirt tracks too, for some archaeological sites. Of course, potholes and corrugated tar sometimes unavoidable.

- Road signs: in Arabic language. Signs indicating major directions or cities are generally translated into English, so readable. Cepednant, in the countryside, you will often need to ask your way.

- A map for road maps: circulate with a map bearing the place names in English AND Arabic, in case you ask for directions.

- Gasoline is cheap (just under £ 40, or £ 0.60 per liter). A lot of petrol stations. Be careful on small roads.

- Car rental: pay attention to the state of the roads, therefore, and traffic. You must be at least 21 years old. In addition to the national permit, the international permit is recommended (but not required). If you pay in cash, the tariff of the renter will sometimes be more interesting.

If trips between major cities do not pose a particular problem, the most fortunate backpackers will have any interest in renting a car with driver for less accessible excursions.

- Car rental companies: most major car rental companies have an office at the Damascus airport. Reasonable prices: from $ 50 (€ 35.70) per day (limited mileage) for the cheapest car, if you rent several days. As everywhere, check the condition of the tires, lights and the presence of the tools. It is possible to take the car to one place and return it to another for an additional cost. Be careful, rental cars without drivers can not cross the border.

- Rent a car with driver: count on average 80-100 $ (57.10-71,40 €) per day, taxes included; Unlimited mileage. Drivers sometimes speak a bit of English or French.

- Collective taxis: these are cars (often old) called "services", which connect towns and villages. We leave as soon as it is complete.

- Taxis: rental of the vehicle by the day. Great if we are many to share the costs. The cost is totally dependent on the previously defined conditions: time, route, rest time, etc.

- Stop: according to some, it works well for tourists. In any case very popular among students and young Syrians. Girls alone will be on their guard, but in principle men have no ulterior motives. By politeness, once arrived, extend a coin to participate in the gas costs; but it will most often be refused firmly ...

Urban transport

- Taxis: very numerous in the big cities and recognizable by their canary yellow color and their appearance often dilapidated. In the big cities, they have a counter that, in general, works. An average race costs 20-40 S £ (0.30-0.60 €); up to £ 60 (€ 0.90) for slightly longer trips. There is no night rate, the use is to multiply the price displayed on the counter by 1.5.

Tip: Most taxi drivers do not know a word of English. To make you understand, it is sometimes better to ask someone to write in Arabic your destination on a piece of paper.

Small caveats: Many taxi drivers claim that their meter (raddad) does not work (or they do not have one). Then negotiate the price of the race when going up. If the driver refuses to agree at a reasonable price, get off and stop the next taxi.

In addition, some taxi drivers have an unfortunate tendency to set their own tips. Do not hesitate to stay firm and stick to the margin that we have indicated above (about 20%). For this, of course, you have to have change, because otherwise the driver cuts his last card: to pretend (most of the time) not to be able to make the difference!

- Urban buses: also called "services". Very numerous and very cheap. Unfortunately, it is always difficult to know where you are going and where to stop. We recommend taxis, much more convenient, or of course walking. On the other hand, for small budgets, it may be interesting to know the minibuses that go to the bus stations.
