Petra, Jordan

Agios Nikolaos, Greece

Aqaba - Jordan

Agios Nikolaos - Crete, Greece

Aqaba attracts visitors year-round with its warm weather and the perfect combination of city-life, beaches and a rich history. Jordan’s southernmost city and it's only coastal city, Aqaba is the gateway to the Wadi Rum desert. Gaze in awe as the sun sets over the red sand dunes for an ethereal experience. While in Aqaba,you will have the opportunity to visit Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site, famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system, Petra is also called the "Red Rose City" because of the colour of the stone from which it is carved.

Nestled in an enviable location, beside the Gulf of Mirabello is the laid-back town of Agios Nikolaos, a picturesque coastal port with a quaint small town feel, and a rich history. Situated on Crete’s north-east coast the town is partially built on the ruins of the ancient city of Lato pros Kamara. The town’s most treasured gem is Voulismeni Lake, a cobalt blue lagoon steeped in Greek mythology, legend has it, that the goddess Athena and Artemis bathed in its waters. Relax lakeside by day in one of the many cafés, and as night falls watch as the lake comes to life with locals and tourists alike in its lively bars and traditional tavernas. Many of Crete’s most beautiful beaches are found with a stone throw from Agios Nikolaos including the white sands and turquoise waters of Voulisma Beach, plus there are several other attractions nearby including olive farms and typically Greek rural villages.
