CRUISE OFFERS - Key Persons


Jordan, Petra

Petra, the great Ancient City that lies half-hidden in the wind-blown landscape in southern Jordan, is one of the world's most treasured Unesco Heritage Sites. Squeeze through a mile-long narrow path, known as the Siq, through huge towers of rock and get your first glimpse of the iconic Treasury - it's impossible not to imagine the armies and traders who made their way down here in the ancient times. It's amazing to think that this awesome, intricate building entrance was hand carved out of the rock.
