The Dead Sea

The Dead sea located 55 km (34 miles) southeast of Amman.

is one of the most spectacular natural and spiritual landscapes in the whole World

the lowest point on earth’s surface, and the World’s richest source of natural salts?

hiding wonderful treasures that accumulated throughout thousands of years.

To reach this unique spot, the visitor enjoys a short 30 minutes drive from Amman

As its name evokes, the Dead Sea is devoid of life due to an extremely high content of salts and minerals

which gives its waters the renowned curative powers, therapeutic qualities, and its buoyancy,

recognized since the days of Herod the Great, more than 2000 years ago.

And because the salt content is four times that of most world’s oceans, you can float in the Dead Sea without even trying,

here is the only place in the world where you can recline on the water to read a newspaper.

A unique combination of several factors makes the Dead Sea’s total attraction:

the filtered sunrays and oxygen-rich air, the mineral-rich black mud along the shoreline and the adjacent fresh water and thermal mineral springs.

Note: you can also visit MadabaMount Nebo on the same day if you leave Amman at 7:00 AM.

The Valley Of The Moon

Discover the almost-mystical area of the Wadi Rum—the Valley of the Moon. Your Jeep 4×4 cruises over the scorched landscape as you explore the region’s rich geological and archaeological landmarks. Ask the driver to enlighten you on the reserve’s highlights while meeting local Bedouin people.
Set off across the desert terrain toward the vast wilderness stretching before you. Your knowledgeable driver advises on the top sights, including the impressive Burdah Rock Bridge—the highest in Wadi Rum— the Seven Pillars of Wisdom rock formation with its pop-culture association, and the countless gorges, arches, and cliffs.

Marvel at the ancient rock engravings—petroglyphs—testaments to man’s interaction with nature in the area for thousands of years and a prime example of how humans can adapt to harsh conditions. Observe and meet local Bedouin people who still inhabit the area today. Perhaps enjoy a cup of tea in their company and ask them to share accounts of their nomadic culture.
