Around Jordan in 8 Days |
|
|
Take a sightseeing tour around Jordan and see the spectacular Wadi Rum desert and other attractions
| Overview | |
|
A sightseeing excursion to the spectacular Wadi Rum desert, the historical capital city of Amman and the beautiful beaches of Aqaba, is a great way to get a flavour of Jordan. Take a tour of Um Qais, historically known as Gadara, home to one of Jordan's most unique Greco Roman Decapolis sites. Don't miss out a trip to the Dead Sea, the lowest spot on earth, with waters six times saltier than the ocean. Stay afloat on its mysteriously buoyant blue waters or get yourself pampered at a seashore spa. To experience an unprecedented desert scenery in Jordan, head to Wadi Rum on a jeep. Capture the beauty of its myriad moods and dramatic hues, dictated by the changing angle of the sun, the timeless rhythm of desert life and you will know why 'Lawrence of Arabia' described it as “vast, echoing and God-like”.
