For a small country, Jordan offers endless adventure and a world of history, culture and scenery. In only a short time you can see many of the country’s highlights, making it an ideal destination for time-pressed travellers seeking somewhere new and exciting.
No trip to Jordan is complete without lapping up the sights and sounds of Amman, exploring the archaeological city of Petra, spending a wondrous night stargazing in the Wadi Rum desert, and floating in the Dead Sea.
Away from the main tourists sites is Dana Biosphere Reserve, a hiker’s paradise filled with numerous trails. Located in the north is Jerash, home to the most well-preserved Roman ruins in the Middle East.
