Destination
Jordan
Jordan is a kingdom steeped in history and culture. From the moment you arrive, you get a sense of its rich heritage: all around are remnants of ancient civilizations long since passed, yet they still remain, running through the very fabric of this amazing nation and the souls of its people.
Amman is a great city to feel the beating pulse of Arabia, and get a sense of the deep histories and cultural strands of the nation. Explore the warren of streets that wind through the capital to see the mosaic of souks that make up the famous area of Balad.
Beyond the capital lies a wealth of easily-accessible attractions. Explore Wadi Rum to experience why Lawrence of Arabia was so drawn to this land of sandstone. Head to the lowest point on earth – the Dead Sea, dotted with beaches and resort hotels. Meanwhile, no visit to Jordan is complete without a visit to the kingdom’s crown jewel: Petra, the ancestral capital of the thriving Arabian Nabataean civilization.
