Overland Tours

Introduction: Leaving Cairo, we head across the wilderness to St Catherine's Monastery, and the holy Mount Sinai. We cross the Gulf of Aqaba and into the Kingdom of Jordan. Here we take a jeep safari across the dramatic desert landscape of Wadi Rum and travel along the old Caravan Route to Petra. The famous rose red rock city of Petra is a World Heritage Site built over 2000 years ago. We float on the Dead Sea, see the mosaic city of Madaba, and explore the old city of Jerash before continuing to Jordan's capital Amman. On to Syria, the cradle of civilization, and its capital Damascus, the oldest living city. We wander through the souqs of Damascus and Aleppo, and visit the ancient city of Palmyra, and the crusader castle Crac des Chevaliers.

Please note that peak season prices apply to tours coinciding with the Christmas and New Year period or with Easter.
