Jordan
Most likely people envision Jordan 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.
Turkey
Apart from Russia, no other country can stake such a proud claim to bridging 'the East and the West' like Turkey, which sits astride two continents. There are more Roman archaeological sites than in all of Italy, and more ancient Greek ruins available for viewing by the public than in Greece. The history from the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, and finally the modern Turkish nation are all on display here, and the Turkish vacation experience can encompass everything from being in the hustle and bustle of a metropolis, to attending a whirling dervish dance ceremony, to sunning yourself on the country's beautiful shores, to climbing mountains and skiing at top resorts, to enjoying an iconic hot-air balloon ride over the Fairy Chimneys of Cappadocia.
