About Us

Mithra Travel has been a leading tour operator in Syria, offering both cultural and adventure tourism experiences. Our mission is to showcase the rich heritage and natural beauty of Syria to global travelers through meaningful, authentic experiences.

Founded in 2005 by Mahmoud Arnaout who has a deep passion for Syria’s history and cultures, and was among the first to obtain professional guiding certifications. For over two decades, he played a key role in training new generations of Syrian guides to international standards.

Professionally Managed by an experienced team of local guides, many of whom have decades of experience exploring every corner of their homeland. We take pride in offering travelers an alternative to generic packaged tours. Our small group tours and private guiding services provide the freedom and flexibility to truly immerse in local life at your own pace. Travel with us to uncover ancient ruins, hike scenic landscapes, participate in festivals, or simply relax in atmospheric neighborhoods.

Beyond Sightseeing, our guiding also aims to foster intercultural exchange. Travelers regularly remark on the meaningful connections formed with their guides – gaining fresh insights into modern Syrian society, culture and hospitality.

Safety & Well-being are our top priorities. We work hard to maintain the highest operational standards, keeping abreast of the latest advice. While Syria faces challenges, we’re committed to promoting sustainable tourism and a positive vision of its welcoming people and storied past.
