Welcome to Jordan!

Upon your arrival, our friendly representative will assist you with all airport procedures and guide you to your transfer. You’ll then head to your hotel in Amman to relax and prepare for the exciting adventures that await you the following day.

Your first destination today will be Jerash: The ancient city of Jerash is one of Jordan’s most popular attractions, second only to Petra. It is considered one of the largest and most well-preserved sites of Roman architecture outside of Italy, with a history spanning over 6,500 years. The city's golden age flourished under Roman rule when it was known as Gerasa, and it remains one of the best-preserved Roman provincial towns in the world.

Next, you’ll take a scenic ride north to Ajloun Castle (Qal'at Ar-Rabad). This 12th-century fortress towers above the lush hills of Ajloun and can be seen from miles away, a testament to its strategic purpose as a military watch post guarding trade routes in the 12th-15th centuries. Built by Saladin's general Izzeldin Usama in 1184, the castle was designed to repel Crusader threats to northern Jordan.

The final destination of the day will be the Dead Sea, the lowest point on Earth. Here, you’ll spend the day relaxing by the sea, enjoying the therapeutic mineral-rich mud, and floating effortlessly in the waters of the Dead Sea. Take in the soothing properties of this unique place and unwind fully. After a rejuvenating day, you’ll spend the night at a resort by the Dead Sea.

Today, you will visit one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Petra. Immerse yourself in the captivating splendor of Jordan's most famous landmark, the rose-red City of Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Begin your journey by walking through the magnificent Siq, a narrow canyon with towering rocks on either side, which serves as the dramatic entrance to Petra. This stunning passageway will lead you for the first 700 meters of your adventure before revealing the breathtaking Al-Khazneh (Treasury) and other iconic structures carved into the rose-colored cliffs.

After exploring Petra, you will head to Wadi Rum, a stunning desert valley in southern Jordan, known for its vast open landscapes, towering rock formations, and breathtaking red sand dunes. Here, you’ll experience a night under the stars, soaking in the full desert vibe. Watch a mesmerizing sunset, take an exciting jeep safari tour through the desert, and then enjoy an authentic Bedouin party. Savor a traditional Zarb dinner, a delicious Bedouin-style feast cooked in an underground oven, before retiring to your camp for the night.

We hope you enjoyed your trip.

Today, you will be driven from Wadi Rum to Queen Alia International Airport in Amman. As you journey to your next destination, take a moment to reflect on the invaluable experiences you’ve had while visiting Jordan. We hope the memories made here stay with you for years to come.
