Trip Overview: 

Our Jordan family holiday allows you to try something different as you experience a journey to the lost city of Petra and follow the steps of T. E. Lawrence to the magestic seven columns of wisdom in the vast desert of Wadi Rum. You will visit the ancient Roman city of Jerash, which has survived an incredible 2,300 years. Take to 4WD vehicles to explore the towering sandstone landscapes of Wadi Rum and camp Bedouin-style, under vast, star-filled skies.  Petra, the superb 'pink city' of the Nabateans which was hewn by hand from solid rock is a highlight of the trip. Explore Kerak - a key staging post for the Crusaders and descend to the lowest point on Earth, the incredible Dead Sea, where you'll float in its salty and amazingly buoyant waters. Relaxing at the Dead Sea is a perfect end to your magical holiday. Families will enjoy interacting with the local community. You will learn about their lifestyle while having fun, playing football and Jordanian traditional games with locals , sharing tea with bedouin families, sleeping in typical Bedouin tents.

Red & Dead Sea

Experience two very different seas, relax on the beach and swim in the Red Sea or enjoy a boat snorkel excursion (additional charge). End your trip at the lowest place on earth by floating in the salt-laden waters of the Dead Sea, where it is almost impossible to sink!

Crusaders & Gladiators

Savour the magical atmosphere of Roman Jerash, which has survived an incredible 2,300 years and explore the corridors and dungeons of the imposing Crusader castle at Kerak.

Fabled City of Petra

The approach to Petra through a narrow siq (gorge) is dramatic. This ancient Nabatean city, hewn out of solid pink rock, featured in the film Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. There is plenty of time for you to explore on Petra holidays.
