Day 1: Amman

Welcome to Jordan! Keep your eyes peeled at Amman airport for the Travel Talk sign for your transfer to the hotel.

Afterwards you have free time to start exploring vibrant Amman or go out for an optional group dinner.

Day 2: Ajlun, Jerash, Amman

Day 3: Wadi Rum, Jeep Safari

We make for our camp at the otherworldly desert of Wadi Rum. No better way to roam the desert filled with impressive rock formations, time to jump on a jeep safari. Brace for a local feast afterwards, we’re having an authentic Jordanian dinner in a magical setting tonight. Naturally to be followed by a camp fire in the desert, singing and sharing stories – scary or not – and bonding with your travel mates. Hope for a clear sky and a stunning starry sky at our desert camp.

Day 4: Wadi Rum, Petra

The experience of a lifetime awaits. Next up will be the magnificent world-famous Petra, the greatest attraction in the Middle East and a full day of exploration. Your local guide will provide a brief history of the ancient city and show you the ins and outs. The massive underground city is carved into a huge rose-coloured rock, make sure to have your cameras at the ready! You’ll also get a chance to discover the Pharaoh's Castle, the Triumphal arch and the Amphitheatre along the way. Remain in Petra overnight as none can have enough of it.

Day 5: Petra, Dead Sea, Amman

A day is never enough for the vastness of Petra. The tour of the ‘Red Rose City’ continues before we drive to the lowest point of dry land on earth. The Dead Sea, also known as ‘Sea of Salt’, is hundreds of metres below sea level, hence the famous incredibly salty water that floats you almost above waist. Enjoy the warm sun, cleansing mud baths and the most original swimming experience ever. Then continue to Amman where we stay overnight.

Day 6: Amman City Tour

Time to discover the vibrant Jordanian capital of Amman. Embark on a city tour of beautiful sites and highlights including the Citadel and the Amphitheatre, and discover the impressive history of Jordan. In the afternoon, you'll have free time to explore the town on your own terms and listen to prayers as you watch the sun set.

Later in the afternoon, board the bus to Luxor and check into our premium hotel by the Nile.

Day 9: Luxor, Aswan

The West Bank of the Nile awaits with the incredible Valley of the Kings. Also known as “City of the Dead”, it's home to fancy royal tombs carved into desert rocks and filled with treasures for the Pharaoh afterlife. As you’d expect, here lied the famous mummy of Tutankhamun III. Rising out of the desert plain in a series of terraces, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut is the next stop. As you try to break the spell of ancient wonders, drive to Aswan for overnight stay.

It is a must-do for all keen on history and mythology. Later in the afternoon, embark your felucca to cruise on the Nile.

Day 11: Felucca cruise on the Nile

Today is a chill-day sailing down the Nile, watching beautiful scenery and waving to the locals swimming and fishing. Whilst absorbing the stunning temples along the coast, sit back and enjoy the relaxing breeze. Have a dip in the Nile, play beach-ball with locals and prepare for a locally-prepared feast.

Day 12: Felucca cruise on the Nile, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Luxor

Time to bid farewell to our lovely felucca. Start off the day with a visit to the Kom Ombo Temple dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek.

As you get your dose of marvel, ride to Luxor and check into the hotel. After a refreshing break, brace for the Luxor Temple, dedicated to the great god Amun. The temple was built on top of a smaller structure dating back to 14th century BC!

Day 13: Luxor, Cairo

After breakfast, depart for the vast Karnak Temple Complex, one of the most important religious centres of ancient Egypt with its marvellous temples. Your Egyptologist guide will enlighten you with the most intriguing stories and mythologies fuelling such creations for millennia. In the afternoon drive to Aswan for overnight stay.

Day 14: Cairo City Tour

The journey continues with one of the most important museums dedicated to the ancient world. Egyptian Museum of Cairo houses around 120,000 ancient Egyptian relics and antiquities. Then roam around Cairo stopping by the Citadel of Saladin, Mosque of Mohammed Ali, the Hanging Church and the world-famous Khan el-Khalili bazaar. Make sure to wear your haggling hats and brace for the mayhem!
