Welcome, Welcome!

Do you fancy visiting the Holy Lands? Have you dreamt about walking in the footsteps of the Prophets, the Ummayads, the Romans, and more as you move about castles, ruins and archaeological sites dating back as much as 6000 years? Would you like to see the "Promised Land" from Mount Nebo as Moses did or spend some time in or near the water where Jesus was baptised by St John the Baptist?

Contact us and let us help you arrange an itinerary that fits your time and budget while fulfilling your dreams. We will collect you at the airport, drive you around the kingdom, get you the best deals at hotels and restaurants and take you back to the airport when you are ready to get back home.

We will show you sites most other tourists don't get to see because they aren't on the itineraries of most tour guides. For instance, have you ever wondered where the Prophet Lot lived after he escaped the destruction of Sodom? We will take you there. We will show you the Cave of the Seven Sleepers and let you relax in the hot springs at Ma'in or float about in the Dead Sea and luxuriate in the health giving spas.

Click the link below and allow us the honor of welcoming you to the Holy Lands with our unique services.

Languages spoken: Arabic, English, Hebrew (all native speakers).

New Year - 2010; Aqaba & Wadi Rum

We booked a nice package for New Year celebrations. The bus took us first to Aqaba where we boarded a fair sized boat for a short cruise around Aqaba Bay in the Red Sea. We came quite close to two ships that have intrigued me for years. They are seemingly permanently anchored there.


A water slide on a boat...a very interesting idea!

First time at sea and already Zeek has that 12-mile stare...





The dancing begins...

A group of boys from Yemen who travelled with us. They were a fun-loving group!





The view coming back into port is dominated by what was once the largest flag in the world. The King himself had it made and installed here.




And of course you know that no matter where I go I will have to order up argilleh for smoking...

Dancing the night away before the old year ends








Arnod, an American guy we met at Wadi Rum. Lives in DC and works for Peace Corps



The Yemeni boys again

Ol' Big Jim prepares to dance...


Oh yeah, I can still do it!!!




Whooowee! Told you I can still do it!



Arnod, Jim, Osama, other guy

Ooookay...I think I'm pretty much done in. Back in the bus on the way home.

Happy New Year Everyone, and thank you for following our adventures through this blog. Feel free, please, to leave your comments.
