The Great Escape to Jordan

Our Great Escape Series features countries that are considered viable destinations for imminent world travel. Away from the media noise, the more fascinating destinations are quietly making the list. We’re so excited to welcome back one of our favourite Arabian gems: Jordan.

Now on the UK’s ‘Amber list’ and allowing fully vaccinated travellers easy entry on arrival and return, Jordan could provide your perfect winter getaway.  With glorious blue skies, toasty sunshine, breathtaking landscapes and a cultural richness that makes your soul soar, this is the kind of escape so many of us are craving.
Jordan offers surprising variety for all the family. From the stunning desert expanse of Wadi Rum, to the emerald healing waters of the Dead Sea, to archaeological wonders of Petra and Qusayr, Jordan is a beguiling showcase of ancient civilisations and natural wonders.

Odyssey World offers tailor made private or small group guided tours to Jordan with a plethera of activities from which to choose. Drive through stunning scenery, hike to ancient ruins, trek on horseback, float in the Dead Sea, cycle past rock formations, dive in the coral reefs of the Red Sea or stargaze from your secluded ‘bubble tent’. Jordan is best enjoyed on a 7-9 day trip, or extend your stay by combining a visit to Israel or trace the Incense Route by land border crossing through to Saudi Arabia – another exciting hidden destination recently opened and waiting to be explored.
