Petra Treasury rose-red — Jordan
Land at Queen Alia International Airport. Transfer to hotel in Jabal Amman. Evening Rainbow Street dinner — mansaf and mezze.
Jordan is one of the world's most extraordinary travel destinations — a compact kingdom of ancient wonders and otherworldly natural beauty. Petra, the rose-red Nabataean city carved directly into canyon cliffs, is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World: walking the Siq gorge at dawn and emerging before the soaring Treasury façade in the first morning light is a genuinely life-changing moment.
An hour south, the Wadi Rum desert is so hauntingly beautiful — vast red-and-orange sandstone valleys between towering monoliths glowing at sunset — that NASA tested Mars rovers here and Ridley Scott filmed The Martian and Dune on its surface. At the Dead Sea, 430 metres below sea level, the world's saltiest water holds you effortlessly afloat while the Jordanian mineral mud is reputed to be the world's finest skin treatment. Jordan is extraordinary value, warm with hospitality, and completely different from any other Middle East destination.
