Jordan

A visit to Jordan is a journey through time. The imposing Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine monuments, the Red Sea, the Dead Sea – the large saltwater lake and the lowest point of the earth, near the coast of which were found the famous manuscripts of the Old Testament, the gorge of Petra and the Arabian Nabatean tribe, the impressive lunar landscape of Wadi Ram and many more hidden “secrets”, contribute to make the trip to Jordan rich in images and unique in experiences!
