Egypt & Jordan Adventure
. .And then to Jordan
Once you have seen all there is to see in Egypt, you will fly to Amman, the capital of Jordan. Here you will visit the ancient Roman town of Jerash and make a stop at the lowest point on Earth - the Dead Sea.
You will also explore Dana Nature Reserve before heading to the back of Petra, where you will spend the first of several nights as guests of local Bedouin people. Your full day's exploration of Petra begins by entering from the back door against the crowds; this experience is sure to be a true highlight. You will then ride camels into the sand dunes of the vast and desolate Wadi Rum and have time to relax in the seaside town of Aqaba.
This incredible adventure ends with a tour of Amman.
