the small hashemite kingdom of jordan is full of big surprises
Not only is it home to the world-famous Nabatean ruin of Petra—made famous by Harrison (or should I say Indiana) riding in on his horse in the last of the Crusades—it also bears witness to many Christian sites, Roman ruins, crusader castles and the Dead Sea. Explore the famous site of Petra and weave your way through its narrow canyons and colourful sandstone. Dine on authentic Bedouin cuisine cooked all day under the sands of Wadi Rum. By the end of your journey, you will have discovered culturally, historically and geographically the wonders of Jordan.
Discover the possibilities:

Jordan Family Adventure
A journey to Jordan is like taking a giant leap back into history—a glimpse into times when camel caravans carried frankincense along legendary trade routes, Crusaders passed through in search of the Holy Land and Roman legionnaires built amphitheatres in the sands. Uncover the history and dramatic landscapes, sleeping in Bedouin tents under a desert sky, exploring the pink-hued majesty of Petra, floating in the Dead Sea and riding camels in the tracks of Lawrence of Arabia.
