Has anyone been or knows which is the best way of getting there? And maybe the best time of year to visit, weather wise, or cultural event wise?

Well, i am thinkng now of flying to Lebanon, and from there through Syria and finishing in Istanbul, Turkey. Do I need visas for all 3 of these countries? And what would be the best way of getting from Beirut-Damascus-Istanbul?
