The magical combination of light, land and sea of the Midde East make this an unforgettable destination. The sea’s name means "in the middle of the land," and it has played a crucial role in the history and development of humankind. Over countless centuries, Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Phoenician, Carthaginian, Greek, Levantine, Roman, Moorish and Turkish cultures have benefited from the sea. The result is that today’s travelers have a wealth of options to experience. Step far back into the past in Egypt’s inspiring monuments and absorb the atmosphere of Jordan’s phenomenal Petra. Discover the ancient civilizations of Israel and Turkey. Enjoy luxurious Dead Sea resorts. Cruise the Nile River. Swim, scuba dive, investigate ruins, and shop bustling bazaars. It is all waiting for you.
