ITINERARY
Touch down in Aqaba, Jordan’s only coastal city, where the Red Sea’s turquoise waters and vibrant marine life greet us with warm, sunny weather. After clearing immigration, we’ll transfer to our hotel and settle in.
Spend the afternoon unwinding after your journey—whether that’s strolling along the lively waterfront, sipping fresh juice at a seaside café, or dipping your toes in the Red Sea.
In the evening, we’ll gather for a welcome dinner, where you’ll meet your fellow travelers and get a taste of Jordan’s delicious cuisine. Think fresh seafood, local mezze, and aromatic spices—all with a laid-back coastal vibe. Then, rest up for the exciting journey ahead!
Wake up and enjoy a relaxed breakfast at our beautiful hotel in Aqaba.
Around mid-morning, we’ll take a scenic 1-hour drive into the heart of Wadi Rum—a desert of dramatic sandstone formations and sweeping red dunes that look like something from another planet. We’ll arrive at our luxury Bedouin camp around noon and settle into your beautiful tent surrounded by stunning desert views.
After a short break to unwind, we’ll head out in the afternoon for a thrilling 4x4 jeep safari. Explore Wadi Rum’s most iconic sights—from ancient petroglyphs and hidden canyons to panoramic viewpoints and Martian-like landscapes.
As the sun sets and the sky turns gold, we’ll return to camp for a traditional Zarb dinner—meat and vegetables slow-cooked beneath the sand. End the night gathered around the fire, stargazing under some of the clearest skies on Earth.
Wake up to a breathtaking desert sunrise in Wadi Rum, with the soft golden light illuminating the rugged cliffs. After a traditional Bedouin breakfast, we’ll bid farewell to the desert and make our way to Petra, Jordan’s most iconic treasure and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The journey takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, passing through stunning desert landscapes along the way.
Upon arrival, we’ll enter through the Siq, a dramatic narrow canyon with towering pink sandstone walls that lead to the legendary Treasury (Al-Khazneh)—a sight that never fails to amaze. From here, we’ll explore Petra’s fascinating ruins, including the Royal Tombs, the Street of Facades, and the ancient Roman theater.
For those craving adventure, an optional hike up to the Monastery (Al-Deir) offers one of the most spectacular views in Petra. The climb is challenging but rewarding, with sweeping vistas over the surrounding mountains and desert.
After a full day of exploring this ancient Nabataean city, we’ll head to our hotel nearby to unwind. In the evening, you can relax or choose to experience Petra by Night, where the Treasury is beautifully illuminated by thousands of candles, creating a magical, almost otherworldly atmosphere.
After breakfast, we’ll depart Petra and journey toward the Dead Sea, the lowest point on Earth. The 3-hour drive winds through breathtaking desert and mountain landscapes, offering stunning views along the way.
Upon arrival, take some time to float effortlessly in the mineral-rich waters, famous for their therapeutic properties. Cover yourself in Dead Sea mud, known for its skin benefits, or simply relax by the shore, soaking in the surreal surroundings.
After a refreshing afternoon, we’ll continue our journey to Amman, Jordan’s dynamic capital, arriving by late afternoon. Once checked into our hotel, the evening is yours to unwind or explore the city’s lively cafés, restaurants, and souks.
We’ll start the day exploring Amman’s unique blend of ancient and modern life. We’ll visit the Citadel for panoramic views of the city and explore the historic Temple of Hercules. Then, we’ll head to the Roman Theater, a majestic site that’s still used for performances today. For a taste of local culture, we’ll stroll through Rainbow Street, known for its charming cafés, street art, and small shops, and explore the lively souks for unique crafts and spices.
In the afternoon, you’ll have free time to relax, revisit your favorite spots in the city, or join an optional excursion to Jerash—one of the best-preserved Roman ruins in the world, just about an hour’s drive from Amman. Wander through ancient streets lined with towering columns, explore the grand South Theater, and marvel at the Temple of Artemis for a final step back in time.
In the evening, we’ll gather for a farewell dinner to celebrate the unforgettable journey through Jordan.
After a final breakfast in Amman, it’s time to say goodbye to Jordan. Depending on your flight time, you may have a bit of leisure time to explore or do some last-minute shopping. We’ll then transfer to the airport for your departure.
