Asia/Middle East
More than half of the world’s entire population live in Asia and so when traveling in the big urban areas of Asia, there are people everywhere! These people, along with monuments, culture and habits are the exact reason to visit Asia over and over again. The term “Asia” covers a huge area with a great variety of cultures, each having its own special and individual appeal.
The Middle East has so many highlights it is difficult to know where to begin. Visit the atmospheric souk of Aleppo and the ancient city of Damascus, the beautiful hidden mountain monastery of Mar Moussa and a stunning desert palace. For the more active, there is time to swim - or float - in the Dead Sea, snorkel over the coral reefs of the Red Sea and take a 4WD into the amazing landscape of Wadi Rum and spend a night under the stars. The highlight of any vacation is likely to be the magnificent 'Rose-red City' of Petra, carved directly into the rocks of southern Jordan, a true wonder of the world. Add the immense ruins of Palmyra, the fantastic Roman sites of Baalbek and Jerash and the Crusader sea-castle at Sidon and have all the ingredients for an unforgettable Middle Eastern experience.
