Embark on a true Arabian adventure and travel through time during your holidays in Jordan. The age-old country is steeped in history and myth. Most visitors’ itineraries will - quite rightly - be based around a visit to the ‘Lost City’ of Petra but the country also boasts sweeping deserts, idyllic beaches and the modern, lively city of Amman.

MARVEL AT THE LOST CITY OF PETRA
The “Red Rose” city of Petra is Jordan’s most famous attraction and one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. Built in the 1st century BC, this blush-coloured maze of ruins, monasteries and tombs is a must-see. The walk to Petra is as much of the experience as the city itself – you pass through Al Siq, a sandstone gorge path that slowly reveals the classical façade of the Treasury, a meticulously planned build-up that makes laying eyes on the UNESCO site all the more spectacular.
For a bucket list experience, ensure you take a trip to Jordan Rift Valley to admire the dramatic, beautiful landscape of this location, While you’re there, take a dip in the Dead Sea – with a salt content of over 40%, you can effortlessly float across the mineral-rich water while it softens your skin.
Famed for its dramatic sandstone cliffs and burnt-orange dunes, Wadi Rum offers a glimpse into Jordan’s timeless desert. If you have enough time, we’d recommend spending a night in a traditional Bedouin camp. You’ll gain insight into desert life, tuck into a delicious traditional meal around the campfire, and settle down for a night underneath the starlit sky. Alternatively, a desert safari is another great way of exploring this Mars-like landscape.
For those seeking a more relaxing holiday, relax on the nearby beaches of Aqaba, boasting warm Red Sea waters, hip food shacks and luxury resorts.
Jordan makes for an excellent multi-centre holiday, mixing enchanting cities and historical sights with decadent beach escapes. Enquire now to get your adventure started!
