Jordan Holidays
Jordan is a land defined by Petra – one of the ancient world’s wealthiest trading cities. Constructed between rock fissures, Petra has to be witnessed to be believed and no journey to the country is complete without a visit to this rock-cut city. Jordan is also home to Jerash, one of the region’s best preserved Roman sites, the Byzantine church of Mt Nebo, a 16th century mosaic map in the town of Madaba and the 12th century crusader castle of Kerak – all of which are usually incorporated in our Jordan holidays. In addition there is a wealth of impressive natural wonders in Jordan with two of the most famous being the Dead Sea – the earth’s lowest point – and the desert landscapes of Wadi Rum. Further to the south, Jordan has a coastline on the Red Sea and at the town of Aqaba the excellent coral reefs are some of the best preserved in the region.
