Being one of the oldest cities in the world, Damascus is in the centre of an extensive metropolitan area. This has made it a frequently visited city receiving plenty of visitors every year. To fully revel in the gems of this city, you need to get a car rental that will allow you to move around and even access places off the beaten path.
Immediately after landing at the Damascus Airport, you may get your car rental from here. If you had made prior bookings, you will have the car delivered to you at the airport and all you will need to collect it is your valid driving license, passport or national identity card and a voucher. If no earlier arrangements had been made, you may get an automobile from the car hire desks at the arrivals terminus of the airport. This may however, take some time and so, many people prefer the earlier bookings option as it is more convenient.
The customer must be between the ages of 21 and 75 and in possession of a valid driving license; be it their own national license or an international license. He/she must have at least a year’s driving experience and should specify the type of car they want to hire. From luxurious cars to economy class cars, there is something for every customer in the car rental service industry. Therefore carry out your research in advance and plan your budget well so as to get a car that will be comfortable and give you value for your money.
Damascus is a culturally-rich city with lots of historical monuments and museums. The history of the land is even evident in the streets and while little remains to tell of the ancient Roman architecture of the town, the town planning is still in the style of the ancient Roman times. With a car rental, you can take your time to slowly unravel the mysteries of this biblical town. The Umayyad Mosque, one of the world’s oldest, is one place of interest with a shrine believed to house the remains of John the Baptist – a rather well-known biblical character.
A drive to the Azem palace will leave you mesmerized by the beautiful interior décor of the palace and one of the most exquisitely painted ceilings. You do not even have to drive far off; the Bait Nizam is a lovely community within the walls of the city. The unique settlements built around the courtyards have amazing architecture and interacting with the friendly locals will be fun. But first, get your car from the car hire agency.
