The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is a modern nation with a very old past dating back to Biblical times.  Already in the Old Testament Mt Nebo is mentioned as the place where Moses died.  The country is small, but the contrasts amazing … ranging form the desert canyons of the Wadi Rum to the green fertile land along the Jordan River, the beauty of an ancient city like Petra and the modern life style in Amman.  Experience the salty waters of the Dead Sea, stand in awe admiring the intricate mosaics of Madaba and visit the well preserve Roman City of Jerash.

From Jordan it is possible to visit the Biblical sites of Israel.  When in Israel you should use the word “old” cautiously as the age of some of the sites is counted in millennia.  We visit the birthplace of Jesus in Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee often referred to in the New Testament, walk along the Stations of the Cross … Via Dolorosa and many more spiritual site, hear the tragic story of Masada and enjoy the culture and colourful markets.

These are captivating experiences not to be missed.

Destination: Ethiopia
Tour: The Mystery and Splendour of the Historical Route
Date: 12 – 23 October 2010

Ethiopia is a country with an intriguing and old, very old history. The people are extremely religious and the country operates on a totally different time and calendar than the rest of the world. Amharic is the official language. It is an ancient language officially used throughout medieval times to date. The historical sites are mesmerising. When you stand in awe looking down onto one of the rock-hewn churches it is difficult to imagine man created it – the fable that angels assisted with the work becomes not so far fetched.

The countryside is postcard beautiful … green hills, rocky outcrops, lakes, high mountains, the origin of the Blue Nile at Lake Tana and picturesque vistas. The town markets are colourful and a hive of activity with friendly locals eager to sell their goods. Even the children are eager to enter into conversation with visitors.

Like many things in Ethiopia the cuisine is also unique and different. Njera, a sponge like pancake made from teff flour is found on every menu. Learn how to eat njera
and tibs by only using your right hand. Coffee had its origin in Ethiopia … attending a coffee ceremony is a relaxing, colourful and interesting experience.

Ethiopia is not an ordinary tourist destination – leave the ordinary and experience the extraordinary of this exceptional country.
