Dana Nature Reserve
Our overnight stay here is the hidden gem of your Jordan tours adventure. The reserve contains a remarkable diversity of landscapes from wooded highlands to rocky slopes and sandy dunes. Dana is hosting a world heritage village with traditional Ottoman houses. There you will also enjoy the silver jewelery work shop and local dry fruit jam factory.
Natural & Ancient Wonders
You approach the ancient Nabatean city of Petra via a narrow siq (gorge), at the end of which the impressive buildings hewn out of solid pink rock are revealed. You have a full day to explore on our Petra tours before taking to 4WD vehicles and heading deep into the wild desert and towering cliffs of Wadi Rum. You spend the night under the stars in a Bedouin-style tent before travelling to the Dead Sea – the lowest point on earth – to float in its saline waters. Jordan tours are popular for solo travellers and groups alike.
Cultural interaction
Challenge the locals in their traditional 7 stones game and on your national sport football. Have tea with a Bedouin familly, sleep under the stars by the fire, bedouin style or have a go on silver jewellery or home made fruit jam or pottery work shops. You will be impressed by the warm and friendly welcoming of the Jordanians.
