Egypt has been known as the cradle of civilization for centuries and also a cradle for inspiration; the source of many people`s discoveries and experiences. Discover the eternal Egypt of the Pharaohs and Great Pyramids, the last remaining wonders in the world, from the banks of the world`s second longest river, the Nile. The traces of this 5000 years civilization border the river valley for more than a thousand kilometers. Alexandria and its legendary port shines as the `Pearl of the Eastern Mediterranean` with its oriental flair and deep historical, cultural and archaeological heritage, and along all the North Coast with its stunning beaches.
Most likely people envision <b>Jordan</b> as a country within sight of `the Promised Land`, the land the Romans mightily conquered, the land Lawrence of Arabia fell in love with, the land of Crusades-era castles which still dot the sandy landscape. It`s the land of the nomadic Bedouins, who live from the land and who view camels as transportation and friend. Even though much of Jordan is covered in desert, the plants and animals that call this country home are sights to witness, in particular during the `desert bloom` at the beginning of May.
<b>Qatar</b> is one of the safest places in the world. Both visitors and residents have the opportunity to experience the welcoming and friendly nature of Arab culture. Like anywhere else, visitors are asked to respect local traditions and practices by dressing modestly. Lightweight summer clothing is suitable most of the year, but some warmer garments may be needed for the winter evenings. Bikinis and beachwear are acceptable by the hotel pool but not in public places in the city.<p>
Qatar has a desert climate with year-round sunshine, hot summers and mild winters. Monthly temperatures range from 62F in January to 97F in July, sometimes reaching highs of 104F during the summer months.
The official language is Arabic and English is widely spoken and understood.<p>
