Middle East You might feel like an explorer when you step into in the Middle East. With the great Pyramids of Egypt, the lost city of Petra in Jordan and the magnificent Valley of the Kings there are more wonders here than anywhere else. But it's the awe-inspiring natural landscapes that continue to amaze me and bring me back to this wonderful part of the world. Ride a camel through the ever-changing sands of the Sinai Desert and Wadi Rum, camp with the Bedouins by a cool oasis, and snorkel over colourful corals in the Red Sea or float on the salty Dead Sea. Visit imposing crusader castles, wander through colourful souks and sip mint tea or spend a night sleeping under a blanket of stars in the desert enjoying a traditional meal - an experience you'll never forget.

Wadi Rum, EJ, JO, ACJO, JT Zoom off through the Wadi Rum desert on a 4WD safari and travel back in time. Discover the vast and godlike land of Lawrence of Arabia and ride over blood-red sand dunes, eat a Bedouin dinner as sun sets under a blanket of stars. An incredible experience! Petra, EJ, JO, ACJO, JT Enter the lost city of Petra and wonder at the magnificent Khazneh (treasury) carved into the rose red rock. You cannot fail to be awed by the sheer scale of Petra or left speechless as you walk through the narrow gorge to discover the city yourself. Nile Cruise, FE, RA, ACFE See another side of Egypt on a Nile cruise. I always remember sailing by felucca past lush oases and laden date palms with farmers, waving villagers, cattle and fishermen lining the banks. It's the perfect way to relax and enjoy local life. Valley of the Kings, FE, RA, ACFE Open your eyes to the mysteries of ancient Egypt and explore the great tombs of the pharaohs. Don't miss Tutankhamun and soak up the ancient civilisation with a walk through the coloured passageways covered in hieroglyphics.
