The Ultimate Relaxation Experience at Ma’in

A beautiful hot spring waterfall resort, Ma’in, offers a relaxing and health-enhancing experience for all visitors to Jordan.

This resort is at an impressive 264 metres below sea level, featuring pools that are rich in minerals. You can choose to stay here for a few hours, or maybe even a couple of days. Boredom is never an option with the amount of rejuvenating spa treatments and dining facilities available on site. 

Discover Why People Lovingly Refer to Petra as the ‘Rose City’

Wandering through Petra, the stunning city of stone, is a beautiful experience. You will witness the tombs and temples carved from pink sandstone in the desert of Jordan from over 2,000 years ago. Concealed by the shifting sands of time, Petra will tell you the tale of a lost civilisation. The sprawling ancient architecture and the magnificent ombre ruby sandstone formations will take your breath away! You will not want to miss the ethereal beauty of these red-rose coloured rock formations.

Feel Like an Exotic Adventurer in the Valley of the Moon

From Petra, you can travel to Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon. Located between Petra and the Red Sea, this is the most valuable treasure of Jordan. No matter how sophisticated your phone’s camera is, it will never do justice to the dramatic beauty of the sandstone mountains. It’s no wonder why big film producers chose this as the location for movies such as Star Wars, Lawrence of Arabia, Prometheus, Aladdin, and Transformers, among many others.

When you’re in the Valley of the Moon, don’t forget to try the 4×4 jeep safari ride through the rocky and isolated desert terrain. Enjoy afternoon tea and feel as if you’ve got unlimited genie wishes to spare! Of course, hiking to the top of the giant dune will give you access to the spectacular, panoramic views. Whilst Wadi Rum is a popular tourist destination, it remains virtually untouched by humans. As a result, you will feel as if you have the entire place to yourself.

Float in the Dead Sea

Visiting the Dead Sea can be part of your itinerary. After all, it stretches across Israel to the border of Jordan. It is worth noting that the Dead Sea’s salt content is six times more than what a regular ocean would have. So, it is virtually impossible to dive deep or drown in it. Moreover, you won’t find any underwater plants or seaweed living in it. This is because of the high mineral salt content, which renders them unable to thrive in this environment.

Despite this, the Dead Sea is not as gloomy as one might assume. It is the only sea that allows you to float upright whilst you’re enjoying a book! What’s more, you can sit through an enjoyable spa experience when visiting this destination. It is worth noting that the mud on the floor of this sea can be very beneficial for your skin. It is rich in sodium, magnesium, potassium, and calcium. However, if you want a full-on spa treatment, you won’t have trouble finding establishments around the sea’s coast.
