7. Finally, Aqaba! The last place to visit in this tour. Aqaba, is located in the south of Jordan, where you can swim and just relax at the beach, there is also a lot of hotels to stay at. My personal favorite hotel is "kempinski" their food is yummy and they have a really nice café, one can spend the evening at "black pearl ".  Aqaba is the free economic zone of Jordan and it has a lot of shops where you can buy traditional Jordanian products .

Enjoy your stay in Jordan!
