What's this trip about?

    Float on the Dead Sea, the lowest point on Earth and stay in Aqaba, Jordan's foothold on the Red Sea, surrounded by rugged purplish mountains with temperatures steady around 20°C in the winter months and a water temperature of around 23°C. Additional interest lies in Aqaba's status as a port, town and resort, fast developing its leisure facilities, where, in fact, King Abdullah has his second home. Opportunities to visit Jordan's iconic sites are within reach: ancient Petra (2 hrs) and Wadi Rum's magnificent desert landscapes (1 hr).
