An unforgettable 7D6N jaunt to Jordan’s soul-stirring sites

Begin your Jordanian journey with a passage through the capital’s history-heavy core. From Amman, you’ll head north to the glorious classical ruins of Jerash and Umm Qais, then south to the hulking Crusader castles of Karak and Shobak. Arriving via a little-known path, you’ll explore at length the gorgeous rock-hewn city of Petra, tracing its tomb-ridden, rose-coloured canyons and marvelling at its mountain-perched Monastery, then ascending to the stunning Al-Kubtha – offering a near bird’s-eye view of the magnificent Treasury. Carrying on to the south, still more eye-popping vistas await in the Martian desert landscapes of Wadi Rum. You’ll then cap off your adventure with a luxurious stay along the world’s most sizable natural spa, floating and bathing in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea before returning to Amman.

This journey outline is by no means fixed. As the traveller takes centre stage in our planning – from the type of lodging to daily activities – your journey will be crafted to suit you.
