Details
Day 1: Amman Airport – Amman City Tour – Petra Hotel
Ahlan Wa Sahlan! Welcome to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan!
Arrive on any flight before 10:30am or the day before to Amman, our representative will assist you on arrival with the immigration procedure.
Meeting time in Airport: 12pm
The ride to your hotel in Amman takes approximately 50 minutes. Begin your day with a city tour of Jordan's capital. Amman, also known as Rabbath Ammon in the Bible, is a vibrant modern city. The historical sites are situated downtown, where we will visit the Citadel, housing remnants from the Roman to the early Islamic period. Next, we'll explore the Archaeological Museum before strolling through the Souq, offering insights into everyday life, and finally arriving at the Roman Theatre dating back to the 2nd century, boasting 6000 seats. Afterward, we'll proceed to your hotel in Petra for check-in and overnight stay.
Day 2: Petra Visit
After breakfast, we will journey to the captivating red rose city of Petra, Jordan's most renowned attraction. Petra's origins date back to around the 6th century B.C., when it was established by the Nabataean Arabs, a nomadic tribe that settled in the region and established a thriving commercial empire that stretched into Syria. Accompanied by our adventure leader, we will traverse the canyon known as the Siq, leading to Petra's most iconic structure: the Treasury. Continuing along the Street of Facades, we'll explore the Royal Tombs and Pharaoh's Castle. You'll also have some free time to explore Petra at your leisure, perhaps even climbing the 800 stairs to reach the Monastery El Deir.
Day 3: Petra Hotel – Little Petra – Wadi Rum 2 H Jeep Ride – Wadi Rum Camp
In the morning, we'll embark on a journey to the otherworldly landscape of Little Petra, where we'll explore Siq el-Barid, often referred to as the "Mini Petra," featuring its own modest gorge (Siq) leading to an array of intricately carved tombs and monuments. Following our visit, we'll continue our journey southward for approximately 1.5 hours to the protected expanse of Wadi Rum, renowned as one of the most striking desert landscapes globally. Here, traditional Bedouin communities still thrive, and on a thrilling 4x4 Jeep tour, you'll traverse through canyons, across sand dunes, and encounter ancient Nabatean rock inscriptions. Upon arrival at your camp, check-in and indulge in a delightful dinner amidst the tranquil desert surroundings.
Day 4: Wadi Rum Camp – Kings Way – Mt. Nebo – Madaba – Dead Sea Hotel
After breakfast, we embark on a scenic journey along the historic King's Way, an ancient caravan route of great significance. Our first stop is at Wadi Al-Mujib, a vast valley adorned with magnificent geological formations. Continuing our expedition, we arrive at Mount Nebo, the revered site where Prophet Moses beheld the Promised Land before his passing. Here, you'll have the opportunity to explore the ancient monastery and marvel at panoramic views encompassing the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and segments of the Holy Land. Our journey then takes us to Madaba, where we'll visit the renowned St. George's Church to admire its celebrated 6th-century mosaic map of Palestine. Finally, we proceed to your hotel by the Dead Sea for check-in, where you can unwind and enjoy the remainder of the day at your leisure.
