    Hello,

    I’ll be staying at Mahali Mzuri in February, flying Wilson to Olare with Safarilink. This will be my first time flying on such a small plane. What was your experience like?

    Thanks!

      Hi Monica! The small plane flights are over and done with so quickly! I did that same flight when I stayed at Mahali Mzuri. It will be louder and more turbulent than your average plane ride, because it is smaller. If you’re a nervous flyer, I would recommend sitting by a window to see out. But really it’s so quick!

      Depending on the weather, it can be very hot as it’s not a pressurized sealed cabin, the same way a commercial plane would be, so you may want a personal fan. From my experience, they usually provide a snack and a water bottle (but I’m not sure if that’s changed during Covid).

      When you land on bush runways, you may see all kinds of wildlife…which is pretty darn cool! So if you can sit by a window and look out the whole time, I would highly recommend doing this.

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. 🇯🇴✨
