Arrival - Aqaba - Day 1

प्रकाशित: 03.03.2022

Flying to Aqaba in March is a good idea, the temperatures are very spring-like (20 - 27C) and there are hardly any tourists here.
The Gulf of Aqaba - the eastern tip of the Red Sea -
here the Orient meets: Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia and of course Jordan.

Berlin Airport makes a great impression. The area seems huge to us: BER City. Terminal 1: you get the feeling they are waiting for guests, everything is very friendly and accommodating (...for Berlin standards), so we are at the gate after 30 minutes.

The views from the plane change quickly: green Brandenburg, snow-covered mountains, open sea and then over Israel, Jordan lots of desert... the mountains near Aqaba are flown over just above them, then there is a large loop and it descends over the water.

Aqaba Airport is small and cozy. From the airport it takes 10 minutes by taxi to the city. With our German/Jordanian friends, we take a leisurely stroll to the city for dinner by the sea. The Jordanian cuisine is well seasoned and served with fresh side dishes with chicken, fish, and lamb. Afterwards, a stroll through the market street: a wide range of goods. The main shopping time is between 8 PM and 12 AM. Now you see the most people here.

Just a quick hello to the Halo Sea. On the opposite side, the hotels on the Israeli side of the sea shine brightly.
Good night Aqaba! We will sleep well.
