Dazzling Incentives in Jordan
Theme dinner party suggestions:
- ‘Caravanserai Story'.
For an exciting evening, dinner can be arranged in one of the ancient castles northeast of Amman. Qaser Al-Karaneh Castle located 23 km away from Amman was built in 711 AD and has a multitude of doorways and staircases that overlap and criss-cross. The walls are meters thick and there is an open roof for clear view in every direction. The carved medallions set around the top of walls and the frescoes in the upstairs rooms give the Karanah its unexpected elegance and expression.
Guests can experience first hand the magic of dining in an ancient castle lit up and decorated to the original 6th Century Ommayad Style. All waiters will be dressed in traditional Omayyad outfits and menu will be catered by a 5* restaurant.
- ‘Arabian traditional market'
This memorable event can easily take place in the grand ballroom of one of Amman's major hotels, transformed for the evening into an animated Arabian traditional market. Merchants display their overseas merchandise: spices and silk, faraway perfumes and fragrances; a Bedouin in traditional dress prepares his own special blend of Middle Eastern coffee outside his goatskin-covered tent, another is baking pita bread in an authentic oven while a third plucks the strings of his ‘oud' instrument, accompanied by his friend on a wooden flute; Waiters decked out in traditional attires. The sight, sounds and smell are undoubtedly those of an ancient oriental market and your group may very well be enjoying this exciting atmosphere out of doors, after a day of fun and adventures.
-Adventure on ‘Al Hijaz' steam train.
Transfer to ‘Al Hijazi' railway station and get ready to take an adventurous trip into history aboard luxurious ‘Al-Hijaz' steam train dating back to Lawrence of Arabia times. While guests will enjoy a drink aboard the old steam train heading on towards Jiza, one of the old Ottoman stations along the Hijaz railway, a surprise mock attack will be performed by a group of Bedouin horsemen riding their pure sang Arabian stallions. Forcing the train to a halt, some of the passengers will be “kidnapped” while the rest will be invited under a Bedouin tent for mint tea, cardamom coffee and oriental sweets. Eventually, guests will be released after a ‘thorough' negotiation with the Bedouin Sheikh.
Lunch will be served on the platform of Jiza railway station with special set up and menu catered by a 5* restaurant. |
