The Hashemite Kingdome of Jordan is a small, landlocked nation, with the exception of a tiny section of The Red Sea. It is mainly desert with around half of the country’s population living in the capital, Amman. Most of the population are of Bedouin origin. Ancient Semitic settlements more than 4,000 years old have been identified by archaeologists around the Jordan River. Wadi Rum and Petra are the best-known attractions but the country offers far more than this. Covering a strategic location on the Arabian Sea, Oman was coveted by the great powers which came and went. With history dating back to antiquity, it mixes high-rises and upscale shopping malls with clifftop landmarks such as the 16th-century Portuguese forts, Al Jalali and Mirani, looming over Muscat Harbour. Join this tour for the incredible history, ancient and modern architecture, natural beauty, wonderful cuisine and vastly different culture.
