January 26, 2022 Jacquiline Delozier

Jordan (/ˈdʒɔːrdən/; Arabic: الْأُرْدُنّ‎ Al-‘Urdunn [al.ʔur.dunn]), officially The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (Arabic: المملكة الأردنية الهاشمية‎ Al-Mamlakah Al-Urdunnīyah Al-Hāshimīyah), is a sovereign Arab state in western Asia, on the East Bank of the Jordan River. Jordan is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the south, Iraq to the north-east, Syria to the north, Israel and Palestine to the west. The Dead Sea lies along its western borders and the country has a small shoreline on the Red Sea in its extreme south-west, but is otherwise landlocked. Jordan is strategically located at the crossroads of Asia, Africa and Europe. The capital, Amman, is Jordan's most populous city as well as the country's economic, political and cultural centre.

Monastery (Al Dayr)

Reviewed By georgeworld85 - Athens, Greece

After Treasury the Monastery is one of the most impressive monumental buildings in Petra. It is carved in a limestone rock and after a very long walk (it's abput an hour and a half walk from Treasury) you'll be standing in awe in front of a really breathtaking building. There is a cafe right in front of the monument where you can enjoy your tea.

Wadi Rum Protected Area

Reviewed By Susie1028 - San Diego, United States

Wadi Rum is a beautiful desert in Southern Jordan. There is a sea of rolling dunes, and dramatic sandstone and basalt mountains jutting out of its sandy floor. A guided Jeep tour of the area is the best option for maximizing your time, which will give you views of the terrain, and make stops to allow you to scramble up a sand dune and look at petroglyphs. We also enjoyed a "camel safari" retracing Lawrence of Arabia's journey through the desert, and having lunch at a Bedouin camp.

Sea Guard & Yasmena Boat

Sea Guard offers diving and snorkeling trips at daytime as well as romantic trips at sunset. Founded in 2003, headquartered in Aqaba, the only seashore city of Jordan. The beginnings of Sea Guard date back to 1993 when one young enthusiast, Yazan Alsaed, started to dive. He made his first open water dive exam in 1994 and in 1996 got divemaster degree. He worked as assistant instructor since 1998 and since 2000 he has been PADI open water dive instructor. In 2003, Yazan Alsaed formally established Sea Guard, as a private company. At spring 2004 company bought its first diving and snorkeling boat, called Yasmena. Since then, we have been organizing trips at Red Sea, in Aqaba Bay and we performed thousands of dives (more than 12.000 dives made only by Yazan Alsaed). In 2008 we expanded our fleet with sight-seeing boat Alissar built in must-see phoenician style.
