**** New Jordan Guided Tours****
23 November 2009
New for winter 2009, destination specialists Longwood Holidays have introduced two new guided tours in Jordan.
The 7 night World Wonders Jordan and 4 night World Wonders Express both include the rose red city of Petra and the spectacular desert scenery of Wadi Rum. The World Wonders Jordan tour also takes in the sights of Amman including the Citadel and
Amphitheatre; Jerash – one of the most well preserved Roman cities outside of Rome; the historic desert castles and the lowest point on earth –
the Dead Sea, over the 7 night duration.
“Jordan is a fascinating country and there is no better way to see it than on a guided tour” said Alan Meadows Longwood Holidays Agency Sales. “The World Wonders tour is a fantastic way to see as much of Jordan as possible in one visit. However we understand that not everyone wants to dedicate 7 days to sightseeing which is why the World Wonders Express is a great alternative for people wishing to explore Jordan but only have a limited time to do so.”
The World Wonders and World Wonders Express both include the services of an experienced and knowledgeable English speaking guide and five star hotels throughout on a half board basis.”
“We pride ourselves on being upmarket specialists which is why we offer five star accommodation throughout” said Meadows. “We don’t believe that our customers should be surprised with nasty little add-ons when it comes to actually booking their tour. The quotes from our specialist reservations team include accommodation, flights, services of an English speaking guide, all taxes and surcharges, transfers, air conditioned vehicle on tour days, entrance fees and a two hour jeep ride in Wadi Rum.”
Longwood’s two new Jordan guided tours are in addition to their existing 7 night Highlights of Jordan guided tour. Customers can opt to spend a few days relaxing in the Red Sea resort of Aqaba or in the Dead Sea after completing the guided tours.
“As destination specialists we’re able to really tailor the holiday to suit the customers’ needs” commented Meadows. “By bolstering our collection of Jordan guided tours we now offer a tour to suit everyone plus with the option to add on a few days extra for relaxation we really have covered all possible bases.”
The operator currently offers accommodation only, multicentre holidays, tailor-made itineraries, package holidays and guided tours of Jordan.
The 7 night Jordan Wonders guided tour is available from £1399 and the 4 night Jordan Wonders guided tour from £1119. Tour prices include services of an English speaking guide, 5* accommodation including daily breakfast and dinner, transfers, air conditioned vehicle for touring days, entrance fees, jeep ride in Wadi Rum and all taxes and surcharges.
