Red Sea Diver
(10 nights / 11 days)
It makes perfect sense that Jordan has a long history of welcoming visitors. After all, it stands at the crossroads of Asia, Africa and Europe, host to the ancient Greeks, Romans, medieval warriors and now… you.
Where else will you find superbly preserved Roman ruins, dramatic Crusader castles and Christian holy sites? Only in Jordan can you discover the hidden rose city of Petra, the captivating dunes of the Wadi Rum and the exotic waters of the Red Sea and Aqaba.
This is a biblical land where history springs to life all around you – from the baptism site of “Bethany Beyond The Jordan”, to Mt. Nebo where Moses first set eyes on the Promised Land. Here too, Bedouin and Muslim cultures have co-existed for over a thousand years.
Perhaps that is why Jordanians are such an accepting and welcoming people — proud of their ancient land and eager to make strangers feel at home. This may also be why Jordan is one of the safest countries and the best place to begin your tour of the region.
Indeed, for many visitors, Jordan’s timeless cities, luxury seaside resorts and golden castles are their first stopping point on the way to visiting neighbors like Israel and Egypt. For once you have seen Jordan, you’ll want to savor more of the culture, the history and flavors of the Middle East.

Bursting with a fascinating history, The Savoy Hotel on Little Collins has been home to some world-famous guests and celebrities. Many of Australia’s best started their careers on its very doorstep.
From the moment you step inside, you will be captivated by the hotel’s charm and inspired by its stories. Built in 1866, the building is well into its second century. Authentically styled, blending contemporary design with its Art Deco origins, the hotel is captivating in its individual character and charm. The sophisticated lobby creates an inviting sense of arrival with its warm timbers, mirror and brass elements complemented by luxurious soft furnishings.
Nestled in dense forest with each room, the dining room, lounge, and bar area built on raised decks overlooking the Lango bai, and they are constructed from natural materials such as locally woven raffia palm panels. A star deck and fire pit are also raised and overlook the bai for after-dinner relaxation and star-gazing. The bai holds a magnetic attraction for vast flocks of African green pigeons and African grey parrots, as well as for herds of forest buffalo by day and forest elephants by night.
