The vibrant soul of

Middle East

Middle East with True Travel

Where ancient worlds meet extraordinary landscapes

Stretching across Africa’s north-east corner and the Arabian Peninsula, the mystical and mythical Middle East, where archaeological ruins are scattered like seeds hotels drip in opulence and crimson seas seduce with balmy temperatures and legend, is a treat for all the senses.

Succumb to the temptation of sweet halwa cardamom coffee in Amman or speed through Wadi Rum’s soaring canyons and epic desert – at every turn your curiosity will be rewarded.

Specialist Tip

Enter Petra through the Siq early in the morning before day-tour groups arrive. Seeing the Treasury emerge between the narrow canyon walls in quiet morning light is an unforgettable experience.

Specialist Tip

Oman is made for self-drive or guided 4×4 road trips. Explore the dramatic Jabal Akhdar mountains, sleep beneath the stars in the Wahiba Sands desert, and swim in emerald wadis.

What our guests say

From the travel and transfers to the lodging, it was the most magical and perfect trip that we will remember for the rest of our lives. The hotels were beautiful and luxurious, with the most amazing staff. Every day was 10/10, and the trip was so well balanced with adventure and relaxation.

Amy, UK

It was one of the best trips I've ever done, and 95% of that was down to True Travel and their team. The organisation was perfect, as was each destination and guide. I hope I can travel again with them soon.

Fatima, Spain

True Travel arranged all our internal flights and transport, which ran like clockwork. Each accommodation was lovely, as was being able to explore Ecuador's varied regions and amazing people, culture and animals. As usual, True Travel delivered a seamless trip.

Jane, UK

My sister and I spent 12 days in Cambodia, planned by True Travel. Everything went perfectly. We stayed in four different amazing locations, had wonderful guides and drivers, and did so many different activities. The team at True Travel were really easy to deal with and great at communicating.

Jill, USA

Best trip ever. This trip was awesome. We were treated like royalty. We were taken care of from beginning to end. We saw everything we expected and then some. The accommodations were fabulous. I could go on forever, but just to say everything was planned to perfection to the finest detail. I hope to use them again and will recommend True Travel to everyone. A trip we'll never forget.

Jean, USA

The True Travel team provided excellent service throughout, from initial planning and finalising the details to support during the trip. They were extremely knowledgeable about Australia, including off-the-beaten-path destinations, boutique hotels and restaurants. Their local partner was always on hand to help with any issues or changes. Using True Travel meant I could relax and enjoy the trip without worrying about the logistics or small details.
