Step back into the age of the Crusades on this private Krak des Chevaliers tour, a journey from Damascus into Syria’s green hill country. Known locally as Qal’at al-Harir, this 12th-century fortress is one of the most complete and imposing Crusader castles in the world — a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its massive stone walls, hilltop views, and medieval engineering. After exploring the castle, relax over lunch at a hilltop hotel overlooking its towers, then toast the day at Jarjour Winery, a boutique vineyard in Wadi al-Nasara known for its rare vintages.
