Go on an expedition through olive groves, hill top villages and desert roads where nomadic communities go about their daily life. Experience Jordan's enigmatic allure under the stars of the Wadi Rum desert or by floating in the dead sea. This 9-day exploration is one you'll never forget.
Exodus TravelsThe Kingdom of Jordan is the perfect place to combine a cycling tour with some of the best sites in the Middle East. This bicycle trip takes you through olive groves and hill top villages in the north, while further south you will head along desert roads where the communities are sparse and nomadic and the landscape vast and spectacular. If the cycling alone isn't enough to entice you, perhaps the UNESCO site of Petra, a night under the stars in the Wadi Rum desert or a float in the Dead Sea will tempt you to visit this fascinating country.
Please note Ramadan runs from 23 April to 23 May 2020
Ramadan is a special time to visit Jordan as it is one of the most important times on the Muslim calendar. Each evening the streets empty while people return home to break the fast and then there is an air of festivity every evening. Tour leaders and drivers choose to work at this time so tours are continued, however, please be aware that their energy levels may be slightly lower. Tourist sites are still open although closing times may be earlier than usual. Your leader will know how the timings for each day need to be adapted in order to still experience all the inclusions on this trip. Restaurants may close during the day and this is also accounted for in planning meal arrangements for your group. Shops are usually open though their hours may vary and they will definitely be closed during the breaking of the fast. To fully enjoy your holiday experience at this unique time of year patience and flexibility are highly suggested. (In fact these are useful at any time of year on any overseas holiday.)
