Our advice is to visit a coastal city Aqaba and snorkelling in the Red Sea. The amazing watching the deep sea wonders can be viewed through a glass bottomed boat. We suggest to visit also the deserts of Wadi Rum. Do not miss the chance to organize a trip to the Lost city of Petra. Children can see the movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade with Harrison Ford.

The most romantic place except of Petra is Jerash. It is the best preserved Roman city in Near East. Walk along the ancient streets, baths, temples and the Arch of Hadrian.
