From the ancient rose-red city of Petra to the tranquil waters of the Dead Sea, 'A Week in Jordan' packs the country’s highlights—and a few hidden gems—into a perfectly paced 8-day tour. Beginning and ending in Amman, this small group road trip is ideal for those seeking both iconic sights and off-the-beaten-path experiences.
Start with Amman’s historical treasures before journeying along the ‘Harmony Trail’ in As-Salt, a town famed for religious diversity. Explore the Roman ruins at Jerash, the mosaics of Madaba, and panoramic views from Mount Nebo. The adventure continues south along the King’s Highway, stopping at Kerak’s Crusader Castle before reaching the UNESCO World Heritage site of Petra, where you’ll have time to wander its carved wonders and hike to the Monastery or High Place of Sacrifice.
Venture into Wadi Rum’s desert, sleeping under the stars in a Bedouin camp and exploring by jeep safari. Float effortlessly in the Dead Sea and then discover Jordan’s desert castles and wildlife reserves.
With accommodation in comfortable 3-star hotels (upgradeable), this tour’s unique selling point is its combination of must-see landmarks and authentic local experiences, giving travelers a true taste of Jordan’s history, hospitality, and natural beauty.
