5 Things to do with your family in Jordan

Walking through the Siq and arriving at the Treasury is a sight to behold. Being able to get up close to these magnificent structures was fantastic. There is so much to see and do and the children loved scrambling in and out of caves and climbing over rocks. We even managed to convince the girls to count the 800+ steps up to the High Place of Sacrifice. It was worth the climb for the breath-taking views of Petra. They were rewarded with a donkey ride on ‘Pepsi’ and ‘Fanta’ back up through the Siq.

Arriving at the camp by 4WD after passing through spectacular scenery was a highlight. After a settling in to the impressive remote camp we embarked on an epic group camel trek. The children loved riding the camels as we passed through tight valleys and trudged over sand dunes. Arriving back at camp our host had cooked a delicious Bedouin dinner using the traditional method of cooking in the ground.
