Jordan
Jordan: The Rose City and a Martian Desert
Free · open it in the app and customise every day.
Small but astonishing, Jordan holds one of the New Seven Wonders and a desert so otherworldly it doubles for Mars on film.
The highlights
Roman Amman, the walk through the Siq to Petra's Treasury, and a night under the stars in the red sands of Wadi Rum.
Good to know
Buy the Jordan Pass (it covers your visa and Petra), wear proper shoes for Petra's many steps, and float in the Dead Sea if you have an extra day.
