Wadi Ghuweir tops pretty much every “most beautiful hikes in Jordan” list for good reason. The scenery is absolutely stunning: narrow canyons, a tropical oasis, crystal-clear water, and rock walls in the most gorgeous colors. To fully enjoy it, you need to know a few things. I’m happy to share my experience and tips with you!
When you think of Jordan, what image comes to mind? Desert, sand, ancient stones, drought? Absolutely, but there are also beautiful oases full of greenery, flowers, and flowing streams. And that’s exactly what Wadi Bin Hammad has to offer. You can hike through this wadi alone or with a guide in about two hours.
The Wadi Rum desert is on plenty of bucket lists, but nobody tells you that you sometimes lie waiting an hour and a half for action because it’s too hot to do anything. With a snorer next to you. Or that your guide turns out to be more of a driver than a storyteller. But also nobody tells you how special it is to feed camels cookies along the road or to hear stories around the campfire in the evening about hunting and camel milk. So I’ll tell you!
Dana in Jordan: the nature reserve you probably don’t plan enough time for. And that’s a shame, because while everyone rushes off to Petra and Wadi Rum, they miss one of the country’s most beautiful pieces of nature. I speak from experience: with what I know now… I would have loved to stay longer.
Ibiza and yoga? That might sound weird if you mainly know the island for its summer club scene. But underneath that party layer lies a spiritual vibe. The island actually has hippie roots and a thriving yoga community. From a spontaneous beach class to a week-long retreat in Ibiza: I’m sharing all your options!
Countless grapevines everywhere. Not in huge, horizontal vineyards, though, but in small clusters in every direction, carefully positioned vertically on steep rocky slopes. The view in the Ahr Valley never gets boring. The Ahr wine region is one of Germany’s smallest but makes a huge impression. I’m excited to tell you what you can experience there.
The beach of Sa Caleta also called Es Bol Nou, is unique. It has a secret tunnel with fantastic views of the bay, hidden war bunkers, AND ancient ruins. Make sure you visit this gem when you’re on Ibiza.
For the perfect sunset on Ibiza, you have to go to the west side of the island. It’s where you can experience this magical moment every day. So choose your favorite spot for the sunset!
You probably already know that you can dance endlessly in the club and eat fantastic food in restaurants on Ibiza. But did you know that the island is also ideal for beautiful walks? Don’t worry, no endless walks. Although that’s an option too. But I’ve listed a few short hikes for you.
