Contact Tur-ISTA travel agency in Istanbul, their contact details are on www.seat61.com/Syria.htm</a>. I've used them myself, they were very good. You can pick up tickets at their office in Sultanahment, just along from the Pudding Shop (a great cheap restaurant, with a bit of history itself, by the way!)

| marco7705:07 UTC05 Aug 2007 | thx - do you know by any chance remember how much they charge for the service (apart from the ticket)?

| man_in_seat_6119:28 UTC05 Aug 2007 | Not much, but can't remember how much. Maybe a £29 became £39 but I wasn't bothered at that price for 1,000 miles and a bed!
