FIRST-CLASS | SPECIALITY GROUP: Explore Jordan's ancient treasures and dynamic cultures in this awe-inspiring 5-day Jordan vacation. This tour promises an immersive and unforgettable experience from the Dead Sea's natural beauty to Petra's ancient wonder, Wadi Rum's lunar landscapes, Madaba's historical sites, and Amman's bustling energy.
Begin your immersive group discovery of Jordan’s ancient treasures at the lowest point on Earth, the Dead Sea, where you’ll enjoy a welcome dinner with your group of fellow Globetrotters. Venture south to the UNESCO-listed city of Petra, a rose-red city half as old as time. Make your way through the Siq’s dim, narrow, winding cliffs to the incredible grandeur and precision of the Treasury’s rock-cut architecture carved directly into sandstone cliff faces. Visit the city’s Street of Facades, the Court House, and the Amphitheatre before enjoying dinner at your hotel as you watch the sunset over the ancient Nabatean city. Return to Petra under a canopy of stars for the magical Petra by Night Show, where you’ll witness the city’s sandstone hues dance behind the light of over 1,500 candles.
Continue south to the Valley of the Moon, Wadi Rum, for a 4x4 Jeep tour into the heart of the desert. Race across the sandy desert terrain, passing through sharp mountains and narrow canyons to the luxurious Suncity Camp, where you’ll spend an unforgettable night underneath the desert stars in a Martian Dome. Watch the sunrise over Wadi Rum’s expansive desert landscape during an optional sunrise camel ride before driving north to the ancient city of Madaba.
Immerse yourself in Madaba’s colourful artistic beauty at the 19th-century Saint George's Church. Marvel at the original Madaba Mosaic Map of the Holy Land Sites across modern-day Jordan, Egypt’s Sinai, Israel, and the Palestinian Territories, crafted in AD 560. Enjoy a guided tour of Mount Nebo, where Moses was granted a view of the Promised Land before his death, according to the Old Testament, before exploring Jordan’s capital city of Amman. Indulge in local falafel, shawarma, and knafeh sweets during your tour of Amman’s Citadel, Roman Theatre, the downtown area, and more.
