Dettaglio del tour
Anfiteatri scavati nelle rocce, esplorazione delle dune del deserto e della barriera corallina: questo viaggio sarà anche veloce, ma racchiude un sacco di azione. Un viaggio di nove giorni attraverso il meglio della Giordania e dell'Egitto, per scoprire la storia più epica e i paesaggi più suggestivi. Si aggiri per l'antica città di Petra, si rilassi lungo la costa del Golfo di Aqaba e finisca tra i souq e le piramidi del Cairo. Mentre viaggia in questa terra di coraggiosi avventurieri, potenti faraoni e profeti biblici, sarà accolto dalla leggendaria ospitalità dei beduini locali nel suo campo nel deserto di Wadi Rum e scoprirà i mondi sommersi che si trovano sotto le acque azzurre del Mar Rosso.
