Bridge to Damascus was started by Abir Wahich when she came to live in Britain from Syria, in order to provide a cultural link between English speaking people and Syria. This involves creating bespoke tours to Syria and running Syrian cultural events in Britain.

Abir can organise your tour to Syria, by listening to your wishes and planning an individual tour that gives you the best chance of getting the most depth and breadth of experiences from this fascinating country. Syria despite its poor reputation in the Western press, the reality of Syria is a very pleasant surprise. Most visitors agree that Syria is a hidden treasure for those who seek culture, adventure and a warm welcome from hospitable people.

The features of a Bridge to Damascus tour include an attention to detail to ensure that you have a comfortable tour, that you see all the important sites and have enough time to absorb the character and atmosphere of each place.

At the British side of the Bridge to Damascus, Abir supports Syrian shows and cultural events that promote an interest in the history and variety of life in Syria. The events focus upon Syrian history, cuisine, folklore, music and dance and they can be offered anywhere in Britain.
