if you have a car with driver. let the driver take you to a place he knows
Normally. exchange rates are not shown.. so it takes the usual time and

yes.. ATMS in Syria are almost everywhere. they will give you pounds
(syrian ) or dollars..
whatever you like
there is no black market exchanges. so paying in dollars or in syrian pounds
is almost the same
ir is also possible to buy back dollars with syrian pounds.
