8 Day Tour, from £2830 per person

Discover one of the most welcoming and extraordinary countries in the Middle East. Jordan is home to staggering ruins left by ancient civilisations and an astounding diversity of natural landscapes and striking ecosystems.

This comprehensive tour of Jordan is perfect for the first time visitor, introducing you to the country's most iconic highlights like the Nabatean built Red Rose City of Petra and the well-preserved Roman site of Jerash. 

In central Jordan visit Crusader Castles before heading south to the Wadi Rum Desert, where you can ride a camel and pretend to be Lawrence of Arabia and overnight in the desert, after an evening of stargazing. While the next day you can find yourself floating effortlessly in the Dead Sea.
