We are sure that holidays in Jordan feature on many travel wish lists, with its diverse and interesting scenery and intriguing history. The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan has only been fully independent since 1946. It is strategically positioned at the crossroads of the Middle East connecting Asia, Africa and Europe. Jordan is a unique country with an astounding range of landscapes - from the clear waters of the Red Sea to the spectacular desert and rock formations of Wadi Rum. Its historic sites are amongst the most fascinating in the world with the dramatic city of Petra at their forefront, and the ancient Roman ruins of Jerash are another must-see attraction.
There are many options with Jordan holidays; you can choose to spend all of your holiday in one place, or see it all on one of our tailor made tours, or combine a stay in Egypt's Taba with a visit to Jordan. Whatever your choice, you are sure to be charmed by the welcoming local people. Traditional crafts such as woven rugs, delicate embroidery and earthen-ware pots make unusual souvenirs to take home with you.
Jordanian Cuisine
Food plays an important role in hospitality, and the delicious cuisine includes Middle Eastern and Bedouin specialities - meat stews, delicately spiced chicken, aubergine, chick-peas and beans are all staples as are the traditional flatbreads. Don't miss out on the ritual of drinking the small cups of strong Arabic coffee. There is a long tradition of wine-making but the local tipple, araq, is not for the faint-hearted.
