Jordan Holidays

An ancient desert kingdom steeped in history, Jordan’s unique natural beauty is matched only by the priceless built heritage of the empires, cultures and peoples that formed it.
Old Testament vistas of valley and river and highland are yours to gaze upon. Timeless desert landscapes roamed by herds of oryx and gazelle and scattered with Ottoman citadels, Crusader castles and Roman remains are there to delight you. There are the salt-crusted shores of the Dead Sea, the sparkling coral reefs of the Gulf of Aqaba and the legendary monuments and wastes of Wadi Rum. The stunning, pink-walled city of Petra – lost to the world for Millennia - together with the welcome of the Bedouin await you.

Petra, the Red Rose city

The extraordinary Rose city of Petra, carved from a mountain valley 2000 years ago and lost to the world in antiquity, was re-discovered only in the 19th Century. Only local Bedouins knew of its existence and guarded the secret. Petra is breathtakingly beautiful, and one of civilisation’s most amazing stories.
