Sharing borders with Jordan to the east, and Israel and the West Bank to the west, the Dead Sea is the lowest point on Earth. Known for its hypersaline mineral-enriched waters, it is a popular tourist trap among travel-weary visitors, who come here to relax and rejuvenate. The best and the fastest route to the Dead Sea is from Amman, Jordan’s capital located just 55 km away. Starting your trip to the Dead Sea from Amman will also allow you to tick off some of the best highlights in Jordan. Besides, Amman is also a great starting point for budget-conscious travelers. However, for anyone who wants more action, joining an exhilarating Amman to Dead Sea tour is another way to get there.

I walked with a cane (awaiting a knee replacement within 2 weeks after the trip. Vivian and the group of travelers were very patient with me. I would suggest this trip for the healthier individuals. Sites were beautiful, but all the walking is a challenge if handicapped. I was very fortunate to be with our special group of 24 and having Vivian as our tour guide! Overall it was a wonderful trip!!!

"Travel Matters" excursions are often just glorified shopping trips. Especially frustrating was going to a "oil/scent" shop for 2 hours
