Lying at the crossroads of Asia, Africa and Europe, the kingdom of Jordan is the perfect choice for an exciting and varied holiday. This friendly and safe Arabic nation offers legendary food and hospitality, and is easy to explore by car independently, or with a driver or guide.
Ancient Amman
One of the world’s oldest cities and the country’s capital Amman reveals spectacular ancient archaeological sites at every turn, including a citadel, dazzling mosques and a vast Roman theatre, which hosts concerts and plays.
In the countryside beyond, you can immerse yourself in the stunning mountain and desert landscapes on a jeep tour, stay with semi-nomadic Bedouins under the night skies, or float in the buoyant, salty waters of the Dead Sea.
