Halina Road tests Jordan for Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre.
This year demand for Jordan has reached record levels, with it appears many Australians want to experience Petra recently proclaimed by the UN World Tourism Organisation as one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
Wadi Rum, [ left] Jerash Amman, the Dead Sea and Mt Nebo are all major tourist attractions in the Bedouin Desert Kingdom of Jordan.
GMTC’s Managing Director Halina Hussein [pictured right] has just spent over a week in Jordan road testing the company’s hotels and tour product in Jordan, with her trip taking her to Amman, the hidden Nabatean city of Petra, the wonderfully preserved Roman City of Jerash, a Bedouin tent in Wadi Rum where Lawrence of Arabia hid out from the Turkish and German armies and gathered his Bedouin army during World War I.
She also visited the Jordanian eastern shore of Dead Sea including Mt Nebo, the burial place of Moses from which he looked west towards the Promised Land.
Halina stated that the trip helped her appreciate the high quality of tourism product and attractions in Jordan and reinforced her confidence in Jordan as an ideal destination for Australian travelers.
In addition to an extensive program of tours within Jordan GMTC offers a wide range of combination tours between Israel and Jordan and two Egypt – Jordan combined tours and the three country Pharaoh to Prophets tour which combines the highlights of Egypt, Israel and Jordan.
