Jordan & Israel (Winter 2012/13) - Insight Vacations - I965WC07
Price from: for 13 Days

Description

Relive an age before 20th Century partitions when these countries formed the Biblical stage, the stomping ground of Roman legions, Muslim armies and Christian Crusaders. Tour Pace: This tour of Biblical proportions follows stories from both the Old and New Testaments, stands witness to some amazing scenery and reveals lost worlds and fallen empires. You’ll encounter historical figures from Moses to Lawrence of Arabia, as well as the odd fictional character too, like Indiana Jones. Hotels: Enjoy a fantastic selection of mostly modern and well located hotels which includes the well respected brands of Marriott, Sheraton and Le Meridien. After a big day at the ‘lost city’, the pool and fine views from your Petra hotel are a welcome respite.
