Jerusalem, Israel

Lawrence's Arabia - 9 days in Jordan

The mountains and desert of Jordan radiate a wild and desolate beauty all of their own. It is these sun-baked wadis and giant granite crags that Lawrence describes in his 'Seven Pillars of Wisdom' - the rock-hewn city of Petra, the sandy defile of Wadi Rum and ancient Jerash. We also have time to enjoy the Red Sea.



Beyond Jerusalem's Walls - 4 days in Israel

You will explore the Old City on foot and visit both the Mount of Olives and Bethlehem, as well as visit the Dead Sea where you swim in the saline waters of this natural phenomenon.
