When Is the Best Time To Visit Syria?

The answer to the question of what is the best month to visit Syria depends on what you are interested in doing during your stay. Here you can see an overview of each month and its typical weather conditions.

Tourist Season in Syria

The best time to travel to Syria is spring (March-May), when the vegetation is coming to life, flowers and trees are blooming.

Autumn (September-November) is also a good time; it is warm and sunny then, but there is no heat, and the air is relatively dry and clear.

Religious and national holidays (Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha) may also cause some difficulties, temporarily offices, some tourist and shopping facilities, restaurants may be closed then.
