    Mysteries of the Middle East

    Egypt, Jordan, and Israel – Pyramids, Petra, Jerusalem, and more

    Travel through time on this magical carpet ride through the Middle East. Enjoy an in-depth discovery of ancient Egypt that covers all the major sites, then relax on a three-day riverboat cruise along the Nile. Explore medieval Cairo and Mount Sinai before crossing the border into Jordan. Spend a night camping with the Bedouin in Wadi Rum, wander a crusader castle, and enjoy a day in the extraordinary city of Petra. The Dead Sea, Jerash, and the capital, Amman, are further treats before you cross into Israel.  Words cannot do justice to Jerusalem – it truly is an amazing city. You have plenty of time to discover its highlights and surroundings, including Bethlehem, Nazareth, and Tiberias. This trip showcases the region’s fascinating history, intriguing cultures, and greatest treasures.

    JOURNEYS partners with Peregrine Adventures in order to provide guaranteed group departures throughout much of the year.
