When to Go
Spring (March to May) is the best time to visit, as temperatures are mild and the winter rains have cleared the haze that clogs up the views during the rest of the year. Autumn (September to November) is the next-best choice. If you go in summer (June to August), don't be caught without a hat, sunscreen and water bottle, especially if you're going to Palmyra or the northeast. Winter can be downright unpleasant on the coast and in the mountains, when temperatures drop and the rains begin.

Syria is still a relatively inexpensive place to visit. It is possible (but you'd have to be pretty desperate) to get by on US$15 to US$20 a day, if you're prepared to sleep in very humble lodgings and live on felafel and juice. If you'd prefer to stay in a room with its own bathroom and eat in restaurants once a day, you'll need to budget about US$30 to US$40 a day.

Cash is king in Syria, but travellers' cheques, of course, are safer. There's no commission for changing cash, but you'll pay per transaction for cheques. You're unlikely to get a cash advance on your credit card, but plastic is increasingly accepted by bigger hotels and stores, and for buying air tickets or renting cars.

Tipping is the oil that keeps the Middle East running smoothly. Waiters in better restaurants expect a tip. People who open doors for you and people who carry your luggage will also expect a tip, but it's up to you to decide if it's worth it. Bargaining is integral when buying souvenirs - you won't have to try very hard to get the asking price halved.
