### Social Walk Along the Thames

Join us for an atmospheric evening walk tracing London’s story through its bridges — from Westminster to Tower Bridge. We’ll follow the Thames eastward past Parliament, Westminster Bridge, and the Victoria Embankment, discovering tales of rebellion, invention, and empire.
Along the way, see Cleopatra’s Needle, Waterloo Bridge (rebuilt by women during WWII), and cross to the South Bank for Shakespeare’s Globe, the Clink Prison, and the Golden Hinde. Each bridge reveals a chapter of London’s past — from Blackfriars and Southwark Bridge to London Bridge and our grand finale, Tower Bridge, a masterpiece of Victorian engineering and one of London’s most iconic sights.
A relaxed, story-filled evening walk through centuries of London’s riverside life.

DATES: 9 days 14th - 22th November 2026
This adventure takes us deep into the Middle East, the heart of Bedouin country, where ancient trade routes crisscross the landscape. For centuries nomads traded spices, salt, and pearls between the ports of the Persian Gulf and the imperial cities of Jerusalem, Medina, and far beyond.
Led by Bedouin guides, we enter Petra—“The Rose City” one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. We trek from the secret entrance of Siq al-Barid (Little Petra), following time-worn Nabataean paths through open desert and rocky terrain. Surrounded by mountains and Bedouin camps, we steadily climb, passing through ever-narrowing wadis and weathered cliffscapes. Along the way, we encounter hand-carved monuments, tombs, and temples before reaching the narrow canyon that reveals our first glimpse of the magnificent Treasury, where we exit this remarkable site.
After a night in a hotel, the journey continues into Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon, where T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) based himself during his Arab campaigns.
This vast desert landscape is dominated by massive rock formations, sculpted over milenia into natural arches, gorges, and eerie shapes. We camp with the Bedouin, experiencing unparalleled sunsets and crystal-clear skies—perfect for stargazing.
Our adventure ends with a return to Amman, where we share a post-trip meal and recount stories of an unforgettable journey.
