Cities don’t come any more atmospheric or exotic than those you explore here: the busy, beautiful bazaars of Iran; Morocco’s medinas, each an endless warren of inviting alleys and lanes; Jerusalem’s unique blend of religious history and iconic sights; Egypt’s variety, from busy-as-a-bee Cairo to languorous Aswan. And while Arab culture infuses each city, and each country, with unmistakeable, unmissable moments, the landscapes are often the star. Sleeping under the stars in the Sahara’s great golden heart; walking through cedar forests mentioned in the Bible; bobbing in the Dead Sea; exploring Jordan’s extraordinary Wadi Rum – all experiences that stay with travellers forever. When the land comes embellished with ancient glories, so much the better – nowhere does ruins like the Middle East. Syria’s Palmyra, Iran’s Persepolis and Tunisia’s El Jem are all exquisite examples, but the final word should go to two of the region’s blockbusters: Petra and the Pyramids. Both more glorious in reality than any postcard or photo can hope to convey, the twin stars of Jordan and Egypt really do need to be seen to be believed.
