You don’t just enter the market to shop; you enter to hear the city speak. The aroma of coffee and spices wafts from behind the stalls, the gleam of brass under the ancient arches, and the colors of fruits and sweets create an open-air gallery of memories from the Levant.
The program does not solely focus on continuous shopping; it combines strolling through the markets, discovering ancient architecture, tasting traditional Damascene dishes, meeting artisans, and enjoying tea in a house or Arabic-style courtyard. The ancient city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979, includes around 125 monuments from various historical eras and has been a significant center for crafts and traditional industries in the Middle Ages.

Stroll between the shops, boutiques, and gift shops, with free time for comparison and shopping. The tour does not rush; enjoy the details of Al-Hamidiyah, from the light of the metal ceiling to the sounds of the bustling surroundings.
Transport to some unique markets to discover traditional Damascene fabrics, clothing, embroidery, and related crafts. This stop showcases how markets were historically divided by profession, giving each craft its own color, sound, and unique character.
A break to experience the Damascene sweets or coffee, followed by a light local meal based on the timing of the tour. The food here is not separate from the program; it is part of the market itself, amidst the movement and the old facades.
A sensory tour among spices, herbs, sweets, and soaps, including a visit to Khan As'ad Pasha as part of the itinerary. Here, shopping becomes a journey through colors and aromas, with each corner turning into a small box of flavors from the Levant.
A stroll through the long market and discovering the shops of traditional fabrics, handicrafts, and unique products. The tour combines popular markets with historical architecture.
A heritage hotel, as it does not just offer accommodation but immerses the guest directly into the atmosphere of old Damascus: wooden doors, Damascene architecture, traditional details, and a location close to the Tuma Gate and the ancient city.
The day starts from the heart of the old Damascus, under the long metallic roof of Hamidiyeh Market, where the sounds of bargaining mix with the movement of visitors and the aroma of coffee and sweets. From here, the tour branches towards specialized markets, in a route that combines light shopping, history, and tasting without rushing.
On the second day, the aroma of the tour changes before the scene changes; the Bzouriyah enters first, followed by the table and herbs and perfumes and soap and sweets. Then you express to Khan As'ad Bashah and the Madhat Bashah market, where the canals and khans meet with local popular shops and crafts and home products.
