Looking to explore the Middle East this year? Get ready for an Arabian night (13, actually) with luxury tour operator Scott Dunn.
To start things off, you’ll fly to Amman, the capital of Jordan and put up at The Four Seasons Amman for three nights, where you’ll get to go on sightseeing adventures. Then, you’ll head to Wadi Dana and stay at an Ecolodge for two nights, where a spectacular mountainous scenery awaits behind the sand-coloured property. Here, it takes just 20 minutes to get you to the nearest Dead Sea highway.
The next two nights will be spent in Petra’s Movenpick resort, one that overlooks the site of Petra itself, providing quick access to one of the city’s hottest tourist spots. Don’t worry if the crowd and number of tourists get too overwhelming, you’ll soon move to a desert ‘glamping’ ground that’s home to just six tented suites. Here, you’ll enjoy living the ‘wild life’ in Jordan as mountain ranges tower over your site.
The last two stops take place at Kempinski resorts which overlook the Gulf of Aqaba and of course, the Dead Sea. You’ve seen people floating in the Dead Sea while enjoying a book in hand, now’s your turn to give it a go. To round off the trip, we’d also suggest heading to Kempinski Ishtar’s Anantara Spa, said to be the largest spa in the Middle East.
