Immersive Exploration at a Relaxed Pace

  • Cultural Engagement: Rather than rushing from one attraction to another, slow travelers can engage with local communities, learn about Jordanian customs, and enjoy conversations with residents, artisans, and guides. This provides opportunities to participate in traditional cooking classes, visit local markets, and witness daily life firsthand.

  • Eco-friendly and Sustainable Tourism: Ashtar Tours incorporates environmentally conscious practices into their slow travel programs, reducing the carbon footprint of each trip. By staying longer in one location, travelers can minimize travel distances, support local businesses, and contribute to the preservation of Jordan’s natural and cultural heritage.

  • Extended Stays in Scenic Locations: The slow travel approach is perfect for exploring Jordan’s diverse landscapes. Whether it's enjoying extended stays in Petra, Wadi Rum, or the serene Dana Biosphere Reserve, travelers can fully appreciate the beauty and tranquility of these locations. Hikes, nature walks, and stargazing at night replace the rush to check off multiple sites in one day.

  • Flexible Itineraries: Ashtar Tours offers flexibility in their slow travel packages, allowing guests to adjust their pace and focus on what interests them most. Whether it's exploring ancient ruins, spending time in a desert camp, or relaxing at a Dead Sea resort, slow travel itineraries are personalized to ensure that travelers fully enjoy each moment.

  • Wellness and Relaxation: To complement the slow travel philosophy, Ashtar Tours also offers wellness activities like yoga and meditation in serene natural environments. Travelers can unwind in peaceful settings, such as the Dead Sea or the mountains of Ajloun, adding an element of rejuvenation to the journey.
