DISCOVER JORDAN with your family
Explore the ancient and the new on a family exploration holiday to Jordan
Steeped in ancient history and home to some of the Middle East’s most famous attractions, Jordan is the ideal place for a family adventure. This unforgettable eight-day tour highlights Jordan’s most exciting corners, from the historical monuments of Jerash to magnificent Petra, and the Wadi Rum desert to the blissful Red Sea coast. With a balance of activities and downtime, your family will love this cultural odyssey. Flying into Amman, you’ll begin your trip in one of the oldest continually habited cities in the world with history all around you. From there, you will see ancient architecture, spend a night in a Bedouin camp in the desert and explore the incredible Dead Sea.
Reasons to book CAMP OUT IN THE DESERT
You’ll spend a night in the Wadi Rum desert alongside the Bedouin people who will host you in your camp. You’ll also explore the moonscape-like area, enjoy a four-wheel-drive desert safari and take a camel ride.
EXPLORE JERASH’S HISTORY
Marvel at Greco-roman ruins in Jerash, one of the best examples of a Roman city in the Middle East, including striking archways, public buildings and colonnaded streets. The city achieved such prosperity that emperor Hadrian visited around 129 AD and you can see the arch that was built in his honour.
THE RED AND THE DEAD
The waters of the Red Sea offer some of the best coral reef snorkelling outside Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, making them a great place to visit for a spectacular underwater view. For an altogether different experience, you’ll visit the Dead Sea the lowest elevation on land, to float in the super-salty inland lake.
