1. Petra - Wadi Musa

Start your day with breakfast, and visit Petra, the ancient rock city. Enjoy a 2-hour tour of Nabatean city and UNESCO World Heritage site with a local guide. One of the Seven Wonders of the World, Petra was carved into a sandstone gorge more than 2,000 years ago to dominate the trading routes of ancient Arabia and is rightly regarded as the jewel in the crown of Jordan’s historic sites. Walk along the narrow “Siq”, the high-walled fissure in the rocks that winds into the heart of the city. Then, stop in your tracks at your first breathtaking glimpse of the Treasury, known locally as “El-Khazneh” - Petra’s stellar sight. Wonder at its intricate façade and hear how movies such as Indiana Jones, the Transformers, and the Last Crusade were filmed here. See Petra’s ornate tombs cut into the rock face and admire the stunning theater that once sat 3,000 spectators. As you walk, visit the Byzantine church. Climb either the Monastery or the High Place of Sacrifice, if time permits.

2. Wadi Rum

Free time to visit the Petra Museum; if there is time. After your walking tour and free time for lunch finishes, visit the spectacular desert wilderness of Wadi Rum. Sometimes known as the “Valley of the Moon” for its lunar-like landscapes, this protected region of mountains, dunes, and canyons was where T.E. Lawrence, known as “Lawrence of Arabia” fought alongside the Bedouin locals in World War I. The locals have named many of the sites in Wadi Rum after Lawrence and numerous scenes from the iconic movie, Lawrence of Arabia, were filmed on location here. Besides, the recent well-known movie The Martian, was also filmed by Hollywood super star Matt Damon; as well as Star Wars: The Rise of Sky Walker. Bedouin dinner and overnight in Wadi Rum Camp.

1. Wadi Rum

Bedouin breakfast and start your day by enjoying an exhilarating 2-hour trip by 4x4 local jeep through this majestic place to immerse yourself in its serene beauty and ever-changing colors. Rumble along desert valleys, through narrow gorges, past red dunes and mountains, and stop to take photos along the way. 

2. Dead Sea Region

Continue by relaxing on your journey to travel onward to the Dead Sea, the first natural spa and the lowest point on earth, sitting at 1,412 feet (430 meters) below sea level. This glittering inland sea contains extraordinarily high levels of salt and minerals, that offers up an incredible experience: the chance to float rather than swim! Arrive at the Dead Sea, check in at the hotel (not included in the package) and wade in to experience a short floating session from the beach: it’s an unforgettable sensation. Free time at leisure to enjoy the facilities: Pool and beach for swimming, if time permits same day or the next day. Dinner and overnight not included.
