Jordan Travel Guide: Start Here
I absolutely loved my trip to Jordan! I arrived earlier than my tour, rented a car and had an apartment booked in Amman. I invited other early arrivers for the tour to come explore archaeological sites with me, and we drove into Amman with more of the group who had trickled in to explore the city.
Then, we embarked on our photography tour, and from Wadi Rum, to Petra, to the Dead Sea and more archaeological sites, I was hooked!
“Jordan has a strange, haunting beauty and a sense of timelessness. Dotted with the ruins of empires once great, it is the last resort of yesterday in the world of tomorrow. I love every inch of it.”
– Hussein of Jordan
