Unser Tipp
It is a special experience to spend the night without a tent in the open air or under the mighty rock faces. By the way: For accompanying non-riders, our partner also offers various other activities such as climbing, camel riding or hiking. We meet up again at lunchtime and in the evening.Beschreibung & Reiseverlauf
You follow the paths of the Bedouins and experience the diversity of what is undoubtedly the most beautiful desert in the world. Constantly changing rock formations, sand and sandstone desert in alternating, bright colors make this ride in Jordan a unique experience. The rides lead through impressive canyons and into the Disi Mountains. There is no plan, no map: here you rely on the millennia-old trade routes of the caravans. The evenings end comfortably around the campfire while the stars twinkle above you. You will be spoiled with falafel, humus and many other culinary specialties.
Another highlight of your trip is swimming in the Red Sea and the Dead Sea, pure relaxation in the saltiest water in the world. You will also have a whole day to visit Petra, the pink rock city of the Nabataeans and a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
