The country of Jordan is almost entirely landlocked with just a small, sixteen mile coastline to the southwest that sits on the Gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea. Divers will find that the Red Sea's coral reefs have an abundance of stunningly beautiful marine life. Even snorkelers can spot colorful fish and sea turtles in the warm water right off Aqaba’s shallow beaches.
And deep in the desert in this beautiful country, you'll find a treasure trove of history. Sculpted out of the desert sandstone in prehistoric times and voted one of the New Wonders of the world, Petra is one of Jordan's main attractions. The fascinating walk to Petra through the sandstone gorge is a totally unique experience. Also not to be missed are famous biblical sites like Mount Nebo, and Bethany Beyond the Jordan as well as the Wadi Rum desert, and of course one of the oldest cities in the world-- Amman.
Whether you want to walk the Jordan trail or float in the Dead Sea, your Enlighten Excursions Travel Consultant can help advise you on the best way to explore the bewildering number of relics and ruins and plan a manageable itinerary with life changing experiences suited to your travel style and needs.
