Jordan Explorer9 days - from $1875From the breathtaking beauty of Wadi Rum to the renowned 'lost city' of Petra, Jordan is remarkable for both its culture and landscape The sweeping desert and echoing formations of Wadi Rum, the hidden, hand-hewn facades of Petra and the ancient Roman ruins at Jerash all make Jordan a true adventurer’s paradise. Ride camels across silent sands between majestic monoliths and sleep in a traditional tent as the Bedouin have done for centuries. And, of course, wend your way along narrow, shadowed canyons to the ornate rock temples of Petra. Splash, snorkel or bask in the Red Sea resort town of Aqaba, float in the warm, high-salt surprise of the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth above sea level, explore ancient Roman cities, Mt Nebo and the crusader castle at Shobak, and you’ll confirm that Jordan’s wealth of people, food, scenery and sights make for impressive, inspiring adventure travel.
