$ 250 a night in the most luxurious hotel: This is what a vacation from the other side of the Dead Sea looks like

It is considered an "orange" country, no need to fly to it and the prices in its luxury hotels do not come close to the expensive ones on our side.

Jordan offers both a luxurious (and cheap) back-to-back vacation and a desert experience for those who want to combine nature as well.

So rather than spend a fortune on hotels in Eilat or the Dead Sea Rosh Hashanah and Sukkot, You can relax with our neighbors and enjoy the same sea (end and salt) but at much-much cheaper prices. Shamas belly-back.

According to Peretz, tourists from Israel and around the world feel safe throughout their visit to Jordan.

"All the tourism people in Jordan put Middle Eastern politics aside and want you to feel as wanted and comfortable as possible," he says.

"Many of the hotel employees in Jordan have worked in Eilat, so do not be surprised if they contact you in Hebrew."

Israelis can cross into Jordan through two crossings: the Rabin crossing in the southern Arava and the Hussein crossing near Beit She'an.

The journey from the Hussein Pass to the Dead Sea Hotel Area in Jordan takes about two hours.

In order to enter Jordan, a vaccination certificate or PCR test performed 72 hours before the visit must be presented.

There is no isolation at the entrance to Jordan, and back to Israel there is isolation until a negative answer to the PCR test is received - it usually takes a few hours.

It is not possible to visit Jordan without an Israeli or Jordanian travel agent who closes all the details.

What else to see in Jordan?

In a ten minute drive from the Arava border near Eilat, you reach Aqaba, which in recent years has made a revolution and established hotels at an international level (which unfortunately we do not have in Israel) at very reasonable prices and a very high level of service.

Those looking for a little more than a pampering back-belly can travel to the Wadi Ram Desert (an hour's drive from Aqaba), which in addition to its mesmerizing beauty also offers jeep tours, camel rides, hot air ballooning, star gazing and of course accommodation in a luxurious and pampering bubble camp in the heart of the desert.

And how is it possible without Petra - the capital of the Nabataeans and the most famous tourist attraction of Jordan, an hour and a half drive from Aqaba.
