Trip Overview

This trip takes in the best of Jordan and Egypt. Immerse yourself in history and wonder at the natural marvels of this area. We explore the desert region of Wadi Rum, made famous by Lawrence of Arabia, and have a full day to snorkel amongst the reefs of the Red Sea.
You love the whole concept of travel. Getting there is as much fun as being there and you love using public transport, local restaurants and small family run hotels where you get the best chance to really get under the skin of a destination. You love the sometimes tough but ultimately rewarding nature of adventure travel and you love spending more time enjoying every experience rather than wasting time on travel arrangements.
