Wonders of Jordan Tour...
This 7 night tour is an excellent introduction to the many wonders Jordan has to offer, covering many of the fascinating historical sights from the the superbly  preserved classical city of Jerash to the delights of Petra voted last year as one of The Seven New Wonders of the World. Combining this with stunning landscapes, superb snorkelling in The Red Sea and the opportunity to try floating in The Dead Sea it is no wonder that this tour continues to be so popular...

Client feedback from this tour:
"We just wanted to write to say a really big thank you for arranging our recent holiday to Jordan- we had a fantastic time, made really special as it was our honeymoon - and our local guide and driver really went out of their way to show us the best of the country and ensure that our stay was a wonderful experience."

On a clear day you can look across the valley, through the hills of northern Palestine and Israel, and just discern the hills of Haifa on the Mediterranean coast. After Pella continue to Um Qais, Gedara of the Bible (Mathew 8:28-34), for a spectacular view of the Sea of Galilee, the Yarmouk River and the Golan Heights. Return late afternoon to Amman.

Dana Nature Reserve covers 308 square kilometres and is a world of natural treasures.
