“Our Guide MADE our trip to Jordan. She paced each stop to our taste, made adjustments to suit our interests, and was always full of awesome information about everything we saw. It can be awkward spending so much time with a stranger, but Ahlam made it effortless. Every step of the tour was well considered and smoothly planned. I cannot believe how much Ahlam and Experience Jordan Adventures were able to pack into our trip. I would love to go on a guided hike with Ahlam some day!”
Great tour!

“Petra was definitely our highlight! It really wowed us. The Wadi Rum desert was also a truly unique and amazing experience. We also enjoyed Jerusalem for its beauty and historically rich culture. The rest of the Israel tour was kind of a whirlwind sampler, but gave us additional overview of what the country has to offer. Having the Dead Sea day in-between the Jordan tour and the Israel tour was welcome chill time to recharge and experience the rejuvenating effects of the Dead Sea water and mud!”

Middle East — Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

The middle east is such a large area vastly covered in deserts, and is most known for its textiles, spices and endless bazaars. The countries included in the Middle East are Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Yemen.

Tour Highlights

  • The holiest place for Christians, Muslims and Jews in the world is also located in Jerusalem. Jerusalem is a place worth staying multiple days in on your journey through the middle east so you can enjoy the endless nightlife, food, history, and the modern amenities of the city as well.
  • Explore the vast deserts of the UAE on the back of a 4-wheeler over the sand dunes or marvel at the majestic city of Dubai, a sprawling tourism hub in the middle east full of night life, shopping and the world famous Burj Al Arab (Sailboat-shaped luxury hotel).
  • Find out where the Three Wise Men were from in the city of Amadiya in Iraq located just 10km away from the Turkish border. With over 5,000 years of history and located at the top of a flat mountain and surrounded by sprawling forests and mountain, it’s one of the most beautiful places to visit in the Middle East.

Travel Tips

  • While most of the countries in the Middle East are safe, it’s important to note that you should not venture into Yemen or Syria for security concerns.
  • When traveling in many Middle Eastern countries you should be conscious about their dress codes. When in Dubai as an example, you should dress conservatively especially in religious sites. That includes long-sleeves and pants, as well as lose-fitting clothing for women (nothing revealing).
  • Additional do’s and don’ts include: You should haggle at the bazaars, you should never be overly drunk in public, and try to refrain from any public displays of affection.
