Step back in time and visit one of the world’s oldest civilisations, Jordan: a place that is historically, religiously and geologically significant.
At the top of everyone’s itinerary is the Rose City of Petra. Dating back to prehistoric times, the city carved into a cliffside was once an essential stop for traders across the Middle East. These days, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a New Seven Wonders of the World.
Nearby, you will find Jordan's other world-famous attraction: the Dead Sea. You can use a mud bath to soften your skin with mineral-rich water. Alternatively, you can dip and effortlessly float across the water (thanks to the water’s high salt content, you can’t sink).
Make sure you also take some time to explore some of Jordan’s other sites, such as Amman, Jordan’s capital, where cool shisha bars are minutes from Roman ruins and Jerash, an ancient Roman city once underground.
