    Hi Kiersten,

    Thanks for the tips. What are your lodging thoughts? We like to meet local people so we are interested in guest houses or b and bs. We would like smaller places and don’t want anything fancy – just a normal irish breakfast. If travelling in May would we need to do everything in advance or would we be able to find places as we go? I have looked online but it is hard to distinguish touristy from authentic. I appreciate any help you can give. We are not extremely experienced in international travel but we are flexible and are not picky guests.
    Thanks,
    Nancy

      Hi Nancy! I would say look into B&Bs as well as Airbnbs. I haven’t stayed at many bed & breakfasts in the area, so I can’t speak on whether you need to book in advance or not. However, in my experience, it’s always helpful to have a reservation, if possible. You may want to inquire in the TBA Travel Tribe on Facebook and see if the ladies there have any insight! https://www.facebook.com/groups/tbatraveltribe

Ever wondered what it’s like to visit Mars without leaving Earth? 🚀

Welcome to Wadi Rum, Jordan — the red desert wonderland that feels like another planet. 🌌

From racing through the dunes on a 4x4 tour, to sleeping under the stars in a Martian-style tent 🛖✨, to soaring over the landscape in a hot air balloon at sunrise 🎈— this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Add Wadi Rum to your bucket list — you won’t believe it’s real until you see it.

Back in Jordan for the fourth time, and it continues to inspire me just as much as it did on my first visit in 2012! 🐪

Jordan remains one of my all-time favorite destinations thanks to its incredible diversity and rich cultural experiences.

From exploring the ancient city of Petra and floating in the healing waters of the Dead Sea, to discovering the vibrant streets of Amman, sleeping under the stars in the Wadi Rum desert, and scuba diving in the crystal-clear Red Sea in Aqaba—every journey here offers something unforgettable.

One experience I always recommend (and can’t wait to do again) is canyoning the Siq Trail in Wadi Mujib. 

There’s truly no place like Jordan. 🇯🇴✨
