Child floating in Dead Sea

Jordan, with its spectacular desert scenery, archaeological treasures and Dead and Red Seas, is an ideal destination for a short but varied trip. Petra is indisputably one of the most amazing sites in the world. Hidden for centuries, it wasn't until a Swiss explorer 'discovered' it in 1812 that the 'Lost City' finally became known to the western world. Wadi Rum too is one of the most stunning desert-scapes in the world and we spend a night camping out under the stars. A trip to Jordan would not be complete without a soak in the salty waters of the Dead Sea and a chance to swim or snorkel over the coral of the Red Sea.
