Getting around Maar Daftein the local way

  • Get aroundIf you need to get to the bus or train station, you'll find a service bus stop south-west of the bridge, easily recognized by many minibuses stopping there.
  • Go nextHama makes a great base for exploring a lot of the north-east of Syria The following can be done as a half day trip from Hama, but you could string a few together for a long day!
  • Go nextService taxis run back to Hama until at least 17:00.) A little further afield you could get to the Krak des Chevaliers as a day trip - but this would be a bit of a shame, as staying the night near the Krak and spending some time to explore this gem of Syria is well worth the time and effort.
