About Jordan
From the rose-red city of Petra to the star-filled skies of Wadi Rum, the crystalline waters of the Red Sea to the therapeutic embrace of the Dead Sea, Jordan offers a captivating blend of culture, nature, and luxury. This itinerary features scenic road trips, epic hikes, Bedouin traditions, modern spas, and culinary indulgences.
My Experience
Arriving in Amman, we immediately set off for Petra where our Bubble Luxotel stay was nothing short of magical sunrises over the mountains and nights under the stars. We explored Petra by day and by torchlight, hiked scenic trails, and dined with views. Wadi Rum was surreal, with its Martian landscape and thrilling jeep tours. Aqaba was a luxurious coastal escape yacht rides, sunsets, and Mediterranean dining. The Dead Sea delivered spa bliss and buoyant swims, while Amman surprised us with its mix of ancient ruins, vibrant food scene, and boutique hotels. Each stop offered a unique perspective of this majestic country.
