Situated east of the River Jordan, the splendid kingdom of Jordan is becoming a firm favourite with visitors looking for unique holidays to the Middle East. The wonderful city of Petra is recognised by UNESCO as a world Heritage site and is also considered one of the New Seven Wonders of the World due to its magnificent archaeological sites. For ancient Roman architecture, the exciting city of Jerash fits the bill with its Corinthian arches, colonnaded streets and outdoor Roman Theatres. The capital city of Amman is an exciting mix of the old and new. A modern city set between the Arabian Desert and Jordan Valley, Amman offers its visitors a vast selection of facilities including delicious restaurants, top class nightlife, and fabulous shopping malls. If you’re looking for a beach holiday with a difference, head to The Dead Sea. At over 400 meters below sea levels, it is the lowest point on earth and 9 times saltier than ocean water. Surrounded by 5* luxurious hotels, a visit here really is a must! Jordan is also home to the Rose Red City, the famous ruined El Khazneh, magnificent rock temples, tombs and the ancient site of Wadi Rum canyon. Offering fabulously unique experiences, holidays to Jordan will give you memories that will last a lifetime!

“I am just back from an absolutely amazing experience in Jordan, so hard to describe and really is a place where you have to visit to believe it! A vivid memory of mine has to be “Petra by night” Wow led only by moonlight and candlelight an experience that I will never forget! Then down to the Dead Sea – yes you really do float! Jordan is one of my favourite places that I have ever visited and somewhere where I am definitely going to return to!!” Gayle Gordon, Senior Leisure Travel Consultant.
