Two years ago, I was fortunate enough to visit Jordan with a group of travel writers and travel industry personnel. It was one of the most amazing and awe-inspiring experiences for me and having travelled to many places, that is really saying something. The experience was all brought back to me a few days ago when I picked up Dreamscapes magazine March edition and saw an article written by one of the writer's with whom I had travelled. Reading the article, I felt I was right back there in that beautiful red-sand desert enjoying a jeep ride through Wadi Rum and sitting around the campfire at our Bedouin camp and exploriing wide-eyed, the magnificent sites of Petra, a former Natatean Kingdom and one of the newest 7 wonders of the world. If you have not discovered this part of the world, I highly recommend it! I'm thrilled that our travel company is offering a custom-designed tour this November which includes Jordan as well as Egypt and Israel. Check it out at www.craigtravel.com or get in touch with me with any questions you may have.

For many years Jordan was a country between - a place surrounded by conflicts - Israel, Iraq, Syria and more. Over the last two years, the country has once again become the IN destination of the Middle East and people have been flocking there to take advantage of the magical sites of Petra, the Desert castles, The Dead Sea, the desert landscapes of Wadi Rum and much more. While logical extensions for a visit to Jordan would appear to be Israel or Egypt, people are also combining stays in Jordan with visits to Dubai and other destinations in the Middle East. This delightful and very peaceful Kingdom has once again won favour with travellers from around the world.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt Jordan has so many amazing places. I went there for 3 weeks, I was lucky to see Petra. The amazing city of Petra is a city built in a mountain. It was my best days. I had a great time on the camels.
